Kafka nods, glancing at his father and narrowing his eyes. He smiles and squeezes Orwell's hand.

"Mhm. Let's go."

It was the day to meet Kafka's parents!! George was walking along with Franz, super excited.

(FINALLY THE ARC IS PROGRESSING <3)

Approaching some kind of store, inside stood two people that must have been related to Franz. The first was a young girl, quite short and a bit underweight for her age, but she seemed joyful. Her hair was black and longer than Kafka's hair, and much less tangly and untaken care of.

As for the second person, an older man, most likely their parent. His demeanour was much different than the girl's, as he was loud, booming, overbearing and authoritative. He mostly quieted down when seeing Franz and George.

"Finally come to visit your old man, eh, Franz? If you didn't come I would've broken down your door!" Mr. Kafka crossed his arms. "Is this a coworker of yours?"

[the-metamorphasis]

Franz nudges Orwell.

"Don't wooorry... after all, if he doesn't want a son, he surely won't care what he does..."

Both Kafkas are glaring at each other while Grete looks both worried and disappointed. She looks between the three before finally squeaking,

"We should invite you two over for lunch later! Um, I'm sure mom would like to meet you, Mr..."

[the-metamorphasis]

Franz almost smiles- almost- and tilts his head upwards slightly, in contrast to how he usually keeps looking at the ground.

"...dating, actually. Orwell is a wonderful, well-mannered man and great at his job..."

As if purposefully provoking another horrified look out of his father, he raises Orwell's hand and kisses it. Grete seems both concerned and... no, just concerned.

"Isn't that right, George?"

[the-metamorphasis]

"...Honestly? I kind of agree. Fuck this stupid baka life. Whatever that means..."

[the-metamorphasis]

"You picked the- you didn't-

...Oh, you're so weird, George. But I love you very much."

Kafka just chuckles and shrugs it off. He shifts to get out of bed.

"You really shouldn't feel so anxious... they're not people you'd want to please, hah."

"Franzzz good morning!! Time to wake up!"

George was next to Kafka's bed, holding a tray with a mug and a bowl with fruits. (Don't ask how he got in.)

- @19-84therealorwell

Kafka basically JOLTS awake, blinking rapidly and half sure the world is ending for a moment.

"...Huh? What? What am I?"

He blinks rapidly again, and smiles at Orwell.

"Oh, thank goodness it's you... how did you...?"

[the-metamorphasis]

"Good mooorning..."

Kafka hugs him back, breathing a sigh of relief.

"But seriously, how did you get in here? Did you break down the door...??"

"Franzzz good morning!! Time to wake up!"

[the-metamorphasis]

in theory could you like make the cockroaches eat people if they’re dangerous as a self defense measure

"Ah, well, no... I don't really control them.

They can crawl on people if someone mentions them, though, and having roaches all over your body has made someone pass out before... soooo..."

[the-metamorphasis]

(curious… how is mod going to play the parents or whole thing with orwell meeting them in general)

(OOC: Mod will probably make a separate account for the family... and it'll go kind of how it goes in the Metamorphosis.

Father reacts with anger, mother with a sense of fear at what her son's become, and his sister with disappointment.

After all, in The Metamorphosis, they weren't exactly happy with how Gregor tried to exit his room)

[the-metamorphasis]

"...Don't worry about it. Just keep being the man I've fallen in love with..."

Kafka gently kissed Orwell's hand by raising it up to his lips.

"Darlingggg!! Let's go lay in the grass and look at the stars romantically and then kiss??"

- @19-84therealorwell

"Wh... oh, wow, that's specific...

And cute. I'm up for it, if you're willing to wait until I get ready..."

[the-metamorphasis]

"Pfft, of course not... I mean, they ignored me this entire time. Soooo... they won't care when they see what I've been doing, right...?"

"Darlingggg!! Let's go lay in the grass and look at the stars romantically and then kiss??"

"Wh... oh, wow, that's specific...

[the-metamorphasis]

"No!"

Kafka grabbed Orwell's hands quickly.

"I do want to. You're a good man, I... I'm sure they'll accept it."

"Darlingggg!! Let's go lay in the grass and look at the stars romantically and then kiss??"

"Wh... oh, wow, that's specific...

[the-metamorphasis]

"Ah, not really... they're not very happy about... man-with-man relationships, but..."

Kafka kissed Orwell's forehead.

"...you know what? Don't even worry about it. Just keep being yourself, okay?"

"Darlingggg!! Let's go lay in the grass and look at the stars romantically and then kiss??"

[the-metamorphasis]

"Ah, one more thing...! Would you ever be willing toooo, um... meet my family... soon...?"

so you’re dating orwell, now what?

"Well... soon I'll be visiting my parents, you see... I'd like to bring Orwell along."

[the-metamorphasis]

"...Not human? So then, what exactly, er, are you?"

(throws my bsd OC at you...)

"Ah... you have very bright hair... it's interesting."

-Franz Kafka (@the-metamorphasis)

"Aww, thank you! You're very sweet!"

they giggle a little
