#fyi flutter can drive and gigi cant yet

[an-animagi]

so for my human au, gigi has kleptomania right. she gets the urge to steal things sometimes and it just doesnt go away until shes taken the thing that caught her eye and lit the urge

once she finds out, flutter tries to help her manage it by holding gigi's hand whenever she gets the urge and trying to take her mind off of the item.

gigi holds a lot of shame around her stealing habits - yes, she will act proud about it when showing off a shiny trinket, but if caught in the act/questioned about it she will immediately feel all the guilt and shame that has been building up through her choosing to ignore those feelings

at first she tries to hide this habit from flutter, afraid that it would greatly change flutter's opinion of her and ruin their relationship, until one day theyre shopping together and gigi just needs to steal something, the urge is crawling inside of her and she just cant resist it anymore. she steals the item (havent decided what it should be yet oopsies), and once they leave flutter asks her about it and gigi just freezes. because flutter doesnt look particularly upset, just confused and a little curious, but between flutter's middle class upbringing and general societal attitudes towards thieves, she cant help but fear that this is it. this is the moment she ruins everything.

but she doesnt. gigi shrugs and explains that she couldnt help it, the item had just caught her eye and it felt like her skin was going to set on fire or maybe get up and leave her flesh bare entirely, and all throughout flutter nods and listens, asks questions when she needs to. she doesnt look disgusted, she doesnt step away, and as the pair walks down the pavement she holds onto gigi's hand and gigi feels heard for the first time in her life. because flutter doesnt shame her for it, doesnt question her morals, doesnt leave her. she simply nods, pulls out her 'help?' card, and points to gigi will a slight tilt of her head.

and on the drive back home, all gigi can do is cry.
