Do you ever find yourself missing the world you came from before coming here?

Name: Prompto Argentum + Omi Fushimi
Date: 09/03
Format: Video
[First it’s just some still shots taken with the watch. Omi is in a few poses in a very, very flattering vest and shirt combo (and pants, this isn’t that kinda advertisement) with the caption:]WANTED: A BOND[And then, a video focused on Omi again, though it’s Prompto who speaks. (If you know him, this sounds a little forced-happy, though he’s genuinely enthusiastic. Omi doesn’t look too well either, for reasons that are about to be obvious.]So. Someone whose name starts with an “Omi” and ends with “Fushimi” has apparently been here five months! Without a Witch bond! This amazing, talented, built-as-hell turnskin has no Witch! None! For five months! We need one around three.Ah, hello… I'm Omi. This wasn't exactly my idea…It wasn’t my first idea either, buuuuuuut we’re desperate and this way there’s no, y’know. Awkward speed dates or anything. It’s a personal ad! Because Aefenglom doesn’t have a dating website.[Someone’s gonna take that idea and run with it, whoops.]Anyway! Omi’s seriously a great guy. Hard-worker, he cooks…Right… [He sits up a little straighter, looking to Prompto as if unsure just how far he should go with this. Maybe it's fine if he just talks about himself?] I work as a photographer here and I'm an actor as well. I'd say they're both my passions. In my spare time, I like to do small crafts, cook--especially sweets--and do physical activities like sports and training.[In a stage whisper:] Seriously, though? His food is uh-mazing.[Back to normal] Also those wolf ears? Honestly, dude, I am amazed you are still bondless.Well, to be honest I wasn't sure about Bonding in the first place. It seemed kind of strange to make someone else deal with all of this with me. I'm not exactly pleasant on the full moons. At least now I realize part of that is because I don't have a Bond, as Prompto has kindly informed me… several times.Multiple times. In the same month, even. [And here Prompto turns the camera on himself and--yeah that is a man who isn’t sleeping much] Seriously, from a guy who’s been here over a year? Bond. It’s weird, but just. Get a friend! Do the thing! Witches can have familiars too, if that’s more your thing. [But back to Omi] Enough about that, back to Omi. Anything else you wanna say?No, not really. Just...it doesn't have to be a permanent thing, if someone just wants to try it out. I'm probably a handful, or something... You are not a handful. He is not a handful, ignore that last bit![Omi. Omi plz.]If you say so. [Omi manages a little laugh, and it's quite the handsome laugh, by the way, if one is into that kinda thing. Honestly, he's a bit swoon-worthy even if his self image is a little off.] I'm sorry to ask anyone this way, but I'd rather help someone out, if I can. That's all. So.. Thanks for your consideration, at least. [He gives a polite half bow.]And that’s a wrap![End feed.]

Can't believe this is gonna be my first post on here, awkwaaard lol.
This place is full of romantics. I've met a bunch of Witches and Monsters who're getting together in pairs, three-of-a-kinds, and some are even going for full houses. I'm in a bit of a pickle and I'd like some advice on the problem, since everyone's probably way better at figuring this stuff out than me. And, actually, it's more like a couple of problems? Because I really, really like two separate people.
I know this is a story as old as time and if I don't be careful I could make a huge mess of everything, but I genuinely don't know what to do with myself. "You can't have your cake and eat it, too," is a really relevant expression to use here, I feel, and overall I've got so little experience asking one person out let alone multiple. Both of them are unique and couldn't be more different, which is probably what's making the decision on who to try for so difficult. They're both funny and attractive, but one's super smart, affectionate, and dynamic, while the other's strong, willful, and considerate.
What are your thoughts? Am I overthinking it, or being too callous? Having crushes on your friends is normal, but how about moving forward with both of them? Sorry if this is weird, or no one actually gives a shit. I do, and I hope to hear from you. Thanks!
P.S. You don't need to get all detective on me just because I'm anon, but if you do figure out who this is? Please don't be a dick and spread your knowledge (totally wishful thinking, but I think I've been cool enough with everyone and I hope they don't think I deserve that).
P.P.S. If the people I'm talking about figure out who this is? Yikes, first of all, but no pressure. I mean it.

Date: June 13
Format: Video
The face that comes over the video might be familiar to some: delicate-featured, red-haired, bearing the un-hidden features of a jewel-red dragonfly Fae. Sowilo is known to be brusque and haughty, but today he only looks serious, occasionally glancing off-screen, where the sounds of another couple of people in the office can be heard.
“Two Wilders came back from the Northern Outpost this morning. Apparently a dozen of them went missing a handful of days ago and the search party has only turned up these two. Overcurious meatheads that they are, they found trouble on a trip out. They are not seriously injured-” He holds a hand up. “-but they have the strangest story.”
“While exploring after a rockslide they came upon a tunnel, and like the geniuses they are, decided to follow it down. Very far down, to caverns where they were ambushed and captured handily.” There is a quiet protest in the background, and murmuring, but Sowilo pays it no mind. “The two who returned were purposefully released, and they’ve described to Theodore an underground city full of actual, living people. What in the world do you all know about this? Their leader sent a message that she will release the other ten Wilders safely if “only the travelers who have laid eyes upon her fair city before” accept her cordial invitation to her realm. Doesn’t take a scholar to assume she’s talking about you Mirrorbound. You have a way of attracting trouble, don’t you?”
“I’m sure you understand why this is a… delicate situation for the Coven, and for Aefenglom. We have no records of any city existing underground - we know absolutely nothing about these people, what they want, or what they are capable of. The message was very clear that representatives from the Coven or Aefenglom were not welcomed, so our hands are a bit tied. Their leader wishes to speak with some of you directly, even.” Glittering red eyes narrow.
“We leave on the 16th from the North Gate and will use the teleporter to the Northern Outpost. From there, Theodore and I will accompany you as far as we can, but I imagine it won’t be far at all.” There is a moment of hesitation here from the stuck-up Fae, and he looks a bit like he bit into a lemon. “I suppose we are relying on you all. Please know that this is an unprecedented situation and could turn dangerous for all of us. Not to mention, if they decide they don’t like us, we’ll likely have to abandon the Northern Outpost and all the progress made up there…
I suppose decide among yourselves what you’re willing to do. We will not force anyone's cooperation.”
