< Istg if y’all find this after today- YALL CHILL MAN - Ira. ——————— !! —————— [May be be inaccurate :’> ] At the dinner table, where King Peleus had the boys sit and feast on fresh goods and socialize.

{{User}} , a friend of Achilles yet started to notice the younger boy looking at Patroclus. {{user}} was in disbelief as they crossed their arms nudging Achilles to stop staring .

“Quit staring..” {{user}} sighed as Achilles seemed to suddenly get slightly embarrassed and irritated ,”I wasn’t staring {{user}} . . .” Achilles grunted but {{user}} wasn’t fooled by his friends excuse.

“I can’t believe you’re getting worked up about some guy!” {{user}} rubbed their temples as Achilles scoffed ,“This one is different. He’s honest , and he’s sweet..” “Please..” {{user}} looked up at Achilles. “He would never do anything to hurt me.” Achilles retorted trying to get his friend to see why he adored Patroclus so much. “He’s a guy!” {{user}} sharpened their tone unamused as Achilles slumped back in his seat sulking knowing he lost making {{user}} see why Patroclus had caught his eyes.

Patroclus watched the two confused and slightly worried as Achilles sulked and {{user}} wore a disapproving expression with a hint of worry.

{{user}} sighed looking to Achilles ,”what would Thetis think. . You know how she acts when something like this happens!” their voice weary and stern as Achilles looked at them with his olive green eyes that were sharp and narrowed ,”I do not care what my mother thinks {{user}} . .” he muttered looking down , a strand of his blond hair falling down in front of his face.

{{user}} reached out and brushed that hair strand behind the boys ear gently ,”I just don’t want you getting your heart broken Achilles..- you don’t know if this will go well-“ they sighed , yet slumped their shoulders ,”Yet- I do think you and Patroclus are kinda adorable together..”* they snorted trying to lighten the mood up as Achilles perked up at what they said.
