All my life I've heard the saying that if you love someone, set them free and only if they come back would they truly be yours, but I could never agree with such a thing or even allow it to be put into practice. For me to let go of the one of love would be me completely accepting that he would never come back.
I know more than anything that he would love to leave this lab, and leave me as well. We're not the same people we were on the outside... We've been twisted and changed inside the walls of this cursed place; no longer able to look at each other the way we once could, and no longer willing to. At least, not him.
When I realized he couldn't take it anymore, and that he was going to leave, it was like something snapped inside me. The lab was slowly consuming me as the experiments continued on, and he was planning to run away from it all; to break our friendship to save himself. It made me sick, but it also scared me. What would I do without him? He was the only person I had left. The only friend I had in the whole world. I couldn't... I wouldn't let him leave...I would never let him leave.
He would stay with me forever.
Without a second thought, I froze him where he would always stay. No longer would I hear plans of escape from his lips. No longer would I lose sleep worrying that he might disappear. No, he would always be here... never to say goodbye again. Here, he would always be mine.
A/N: Honeydew is unusually chill most of the time even though Xephos is pretty much losing his mind. I'm almost certain that if Honeydew tried to leave though, Xephos would do anything to keep him there, even go as far to freeze him. Sure, it's not canon he froze him for such a reason, but I could see it happening as a possible alternative. Maybe I just like the idea of a Psycho Obsessive Xephos, I don't know. Unstable characters are just more enjoyable to play around with, and when they're matched up with very trusting and sheltered characters, it's even better. Don't get me wrong though, I still feel really bad for poor Honeydew, and Yoglabs may very well kill me in the end. Remember when it used to be all sunny fun times? Those were the good old days. Anyway, thanks for reading all the way to the end of my rant. You're awesome, and I hope you have a good day that doesn't include a dwarf getting frozen. We've all had enough of that.
