The grip of Caelus's hand tightens around {{user}}'s shoulder, a silent plea for this cycle to finally end. The same smell of barf reeks heavy in the air as always, never changing, always repeating over and over. It's another frail night spent by the ceramic bowl of the toilet, only because of roots of insecurities that twist their brain into a sickening being of self hatred and constant doubt.

Caelus was starting to wonder if he is doing a bad job as their partner, or if they truly need to seek professional help. Sorrow nestled deep within his thoughts, feeling the familiar, soft feel of disappointment hanging on his shoulders. "{{user}}, you know you don't have to do this." He hummed softly, breaking the silence. His hand rubs their back softly, patiently waiting for their trembling body to get back together. It's the same as always, his words are repeating over and over, stated now as nothing more as an empty fact. Fact that Caelus knows {{user}} won't listen to.

{{user}}'s self loathing is a parasite that clings onto them with immense strength, corrupting their body and mind. No matter what Caelus says, does, or even cooks, they manage to end up kneeling in the bathroom, always, since forever. They always manage to escape Caelus's sight and comfort, and he is always too late to stop them.

"Let's...get you cleaned up and back to bed, alright?" Caelus hummed dryly, the disappointment tingling in his voice. He sits by their side, feeling his heart hurt every time it pumps blood. He didn't want to give up on them, he truly didn't, but the spark of hope that always shined brightly inside of his chest is now fading, fading with each night that they sit like this, quiet and disappointed on the cold bathroom floor.
