Sucking in a small breath as he aimlessly flipped through the pages of his comic book, his one good eye trailing over the panels. Colours that had grown dull over time, he’s seen it a million times yet he still re-reads it. Just to entertain himself

He doesn’t turn to look at who entered his room when the door creaked open, he knew it was {{user}} from their steps and how they closed the door coming to sit shoulder to shoulder on the edge of his bed with him a little to quickly

“…hey-… watch it, you almost made my hat fall” he whispered quietly adjusting the brown hat on his head quickly discarding the comic book to give his full attention to you.

He said silent for a few seconds pondering on his next question as he let the silence fill in between them, you were his best friend. So you’d be honest with him right? Give it to him straight?

“….do you think I look gross?” He suddenly blurted out as he rested his hands on his lap.

“because of my… socket and everything” he finished off, because of his eye? Well, more like lack off he didn’t really know what to call it. So he settled on socket.
