Being willing to talk about what went on behind closed doors was completely foreign to him. If the other boy was alright with talking about it though, that was a good sign, right? Once again, Thorne wondered why he even cared. Liam didn't mean anything to him, hell this was one of the only real conversations they'd ever had. Still... "It's alright there? Home, I mean."<br/><br/>Between Liam's agreeance that his instructions would be superior and being told he was right (multiple times, no less), Thorne was practically glowing with pride and satisfaction. Call him vain, but Thorne knew he was knowledgeable here and he liked to be told. "I've got glitter spray somewhere around here if you want." He offers, gaze flicking from Liam to the collection of bottles and containers around them, scanning their labels. As the two talk, Sad Kitty continues swiping colours onto Thorne's skin, primarily in shades of pink and glitter. Occasionally, they will pair colours together and pause for a moment as if they're contemplating something. "I don't wear it often, but I like having it." Not entirely a lie. It was true he didn't wear it often, but Liam didn't need to know why he brought products he barely used to camp with him.<br/><br/>"Exactly. Not just a pretty face, huh?" Thorne grinned in response to the questions. "Pigment is colour, yeah. Typically you want anything flashy on your eyes or lips, otherwise, it starts to look like facepaint. And you want to highlight your best features."<br/><br/>After Liam gets a chance to look at it for a few moments, Thorne will take back the eye primer and open it up. "I<em>can</em>show you how to use this one though," he says, wiping the brush that came out of the bottle over each eyelid before closing it back up. "You just apply it on your eyelids, and blend it in with your fingertip," as he speaks, Thorne looks into the mirror and dabs at the primer on his eyelids, spreading and thinning it on his skin. "You don't need a lot, just a dab will do. Any more than that and your eyelids will feel gooey."<br/><br/>Sad Kitty was looking at their handiwork on Thorne's leg and quietly humming a happy tune when Balor booped them on the nose. They fall silent and freeze, eye going wide to stare at Balor. At the sudden silence from Sad Kitty, Thorne tenses. He places a protective hand on the cat's back and watches Balor intently. After staring in a mixture of fear and confusion for a second or two, Sad Kitty stands on their hind legs and reaches up to Balor. Small as they are, it's an adorable sight, if a bit comical. "Boop." they reply, returning the poke on the nose before falling back into a seated position. Though Sad Kitty doesn't have the facial structure to smile properly, they at least<em>sound</em>like they're smiling.<br/><br/>As Sad Kitty calms down, Thorne's protectiveness eases back and he allows his gaze to return to the other boy. "Me too." He still went back and forth on how he felt about all of this at least once a day. On the one hand, Sad Kitty's newfound sentience was something Thorne loved. It meant that even if he screwed up every foster placement in existence, every relationship he ever had, Thorne would still have someone. On the other, however, it meant there was yet another person Thorne could hurt. And Thorne knew it was only a matter of time until he did. "I don't know how I'd ever come up with something like this though."
