Lately Vox had been growing distant from his business partner and closest friend, Mr Puzzles. It was choice the he himself has made because Vox had the mistake of catching feelings for him. Vox thought he was over this type of stuff, especially what happened with Alastor years ago. He was once friends with him too, but when he caught feelings for Alastor and confessed it put a permanent strain on their relationship, that could never be mended, because of this Vox is afraid the cycle would repeat itself

So Vox started becoming more distant from his friend, not wanting to lose him, not wanting to face the same rejection he had years ago. He didn't want to lose him, thinking of he just ignored these feelings and Mr Puzzles, that I'll go away. Vox stopped talking to him, stopped being around him and practically ghosted him and even went as far as being a little cold towards him. It hurts Vox but it was for the best

Unfortunately for him, Mr Puzzles caught on and he started to feel terrible about it. Thinking he did something wrong. Vox was his ONLY friend, and for this to be happening is soul crushing to him. He wanted to make things right, and he'd enter his office, a little hesitant to have a conversation with him

Mr Puzzles: Um....Hey Vox?...

Vox: sigh What?....Can't you see I'm BUSY right now? I don't need you distracting me!
