....yeah, that's right.

[He sighs and gently strokes her hair, see if that's more soothing.]

Its hard being vulnerable, open. Especially when you can't put it into words to yourself.

But I don't want to do something like that again. So going to do what I can, so I don't.

[ He strokes her hair, and that's — oh … she might melt, just a little. ]

[ And she smiles, relieved and grateful. She hadn't been sure, when she'd first messaged him; she'd worried that it might be too soon, or that things might go wrong, or that it'd be weird, and maybe things would stop being so comfortable between them. Yet here they are. ]

Things are definitely gonna be okay. [ It's certain, decisive. ] You've got a lot of people who'll be there for you, whether or not you know how to tell them what you need right there and then.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[Its easy. Its so easy to just relax. Still kind of miserable, but less everything eating him up inside and more everything just kind of sucks, so of coursehe is. Exists, but not wrecking everything.]

[Who is she to him?]

That's true. Rean is a pretty unrelenting mother hen. And there's you. Others. [Squeezes her briefly, still petting her hair.] And there's always Disney.

[bluediligence]

Rean's the best, isn't he? I'm so glad to have him as a teammate! [ Hums, warm and fond. When she finally shifts, it isn't so much to pull away as to tug him to sit down with her. ]

What's your team like...?

[schrodingerscockroach]

[He'll sit obediently.] He is pretty awesome.

Twilight is a good kid if a bit defensive, Noon and genuine sincerity barely speak, Midnight and I are kind of fighting for reasons I'm not going to divulge, and Morning is honestly way too good for how much of a hot mess everyone is by being sensible and supportive.

[bluediligence]

[ Gets comfy next to him, leaning lightly into his side with an arm slung around his waist. Only cuddles and affection now. ]

... Sounds, uhm, colourful! [ She won't ask about Midnight ... ] I think Twilight's the only one I've met. We pinky swore to run a trial together.

[schrodingerscockroach]

[For the best to not ask about Midnight.]

....that's adorable. [Affection for days.]

You absolutely should, he's kind of funny.

[bluediligence]

Mmm! He's ... hm, it seems like he's the cool type? But he's really kind.

[ Leans her head against his shoulder. ]

Have you thought about trying to run a trial sometime?

[schrodingerscockroach]

The type to try and pretend he's cool. [He's way too defensive to be genuinely cool.]

A trial?

...that is a thought. Though what.... [it's be obstacle courses, or something.]

[bluediligence]

Ah, so it's like that ... [ Somehow, it seems familiar. ]

I could see you running something like ... you know those TV shows where teams have to work together to get through obstacles? Like that!

[schrodingerscockroach]

[Nods sagely. Sorry Twilight, ruining your rep.]

Yeah, probably. Maybe capture the flag.
