Oh? What can she do for Miguel that he’d appreciate in his current manifestation? 🤔
maybe she could, you know, give an example of tradicional human affection? Maybe that could work? kiss? kissie time? maybe? kiss kiss?
Probably not, as Mikhail had been ace himself so The Foreigner has no access to even the remnants of such feelings in his borrowed body; But I’m not sure if Angela really understands this detail about him yet and she may still be making a plausible but in this case incorrect assumption… 🤔
Yeah, you’re right, I forgot for a second that this is Mikhael’s former body we’re talking about… but I also agree with the Angela part, it’s an interesting route to think about! Oh, what a lovely misunderstanding this can lead to 🥹
Indeed, but The Foreigner could still learn about messy human relations that way, just in a more complicated way!
