Seth...
Gaped at Zafika. Rather openly at that. Their reaction wasn't anything at all like how he'd imagined. He'd expected shock, disgust, awkwardness...anything but just...straight up acceptance.
Though in his defense he had never, ever, received that before from anyone, at the very least not on the bit how he considered his puppets real friends and treated them just like other people. And no matter hard he tried, he couldn't hear a hint of a lie, even though he had become an expert in hearing if people's words weren't what the actually meant.

Before he even realized it there were a few tears running down his cheeks.

He wasn't sad of course, far from it, he had never felt more happy or relieved as he did for the moment.

When he realized he was crying, he tried to wipe them and stop them while typing with the other hand, not that it served to be of too much use.

"I...Thank you. I, I really thought...you'd find it weird or creepy or something I've...never had everyone just...accept it. As something they might not understand... but is dear and important to me..."

He admittedly had to sniffle a little, but he was honestly beaming, or as close to it as he could get, an actual decent smile on his face.
