Aw, don't worry Peppino, we have no intention of hurting anyone!
[Gently and in a friendly pat on the shoulder]
Moreover, with our new abilities, we could help you with your work, if you need it of course :]
Peppino: "Oh no no, yeah, it's fine! There's a bunch of disembodied hands floating around and touching me, this is fine!"
Peppino: "Jeez! Is it hot in here, or is it just me!?"
Gustavo: (If I had a nickel every time this happened...)
Pep: "...Mrr...?"
Pep: "...!"
Pep: "Doog ton! Doog ton! Onippep rof hcum oot ekam! Revo- Revo ot yrt ton od esaelp- Sdneirf on on on!"
Peppino: "!?"
Gustavo: "... Thanks, Brick."
Pep: "..."
Gustavo: "-Alright, just breathe. It's okay, we got you."
Pep: "Um... Really sorry, Peppino and Gustavo..."
Peppino: "It's alright, Pep. It wasn't your fault."
Pep: "Is Peppino... Mad at friends...? Gustavo... Mad at friends...?"
Peppino: "No no, I'm not mad! It was-a just... A lot all at once..."
Gustavo: "They were just excited and wanted to help! I can't be mad at the enthusiasm!"
Pep: "... Okay..."
Peppino: "Look Pep, it's alright. We're all okay now. I don't-a mind if your friends want to help, we just might need to put some rules down to avoid anyone getting overwhelmed again."
Pep: "... Okay..."
Peppino: "We can talk to your friends. You can rest with Brick again, yeah?"
Pep: "... Yes."
(Do not worry, your hands are not gone forever! Just temporarily unsummoned by the master controls Pep somehow button mashed to.)

this is part of a new au that I don't have exactly figured out yet. It's a very bl-ish au, i read that stuff a lot when im tired of reading the same fanfics.
I thought it would be funny to use my knowledge of bls to create an au where i basically use all of their clichés (minus the sa.)
