Having a good support system helps, so... you can always come to me if you need anything, alright?

... Really? I mean, you've said it before, but... I'm not so amnesic that I would assume you serious beyond a nice gesture being offered.

[ shrugs. ] I guess you won't know until you try to take me up on it then, huh?

Aha, you sure are a sucker for punishment. I accept and will wait for the time to find out.

I am a bit of a masochist. [ laughs. ] Good. Now why don't you get back to relaxing. Today was tough.

Thanks for being there.

Anytime. It’s the least we can do for each other here. Sorry to have brought on such a depressing topic, but it’s better you know.

You bet. My door's always open if you need a place and don't know where to go. Sorry for kitnapping you in the first place. [ kit because you are a fox. ]

Honesty about the realities is needed. I don't need to be told it's okay or not my fault or whatever. I don't need snuggles and cuddles and stuff. [ not that he doesn't like them. but he doesn't need them, and they won't help survive the next game. ]

[ shrugs. ] It's fine. It's not like I couldn't have just left...

Hah. I wouldn't knock *all* the affection... because sometimes it can be better than a bandaid.

Yeah, I believe it... but I'm not sure I'm ready for it, I don't think. Maybe soon.

Affection is great, everyone in HSS is cozy with each other, but when it's affection in response to things like dying in a game... I don't feel anything. It seems better or on others for now.

It'll hit eventually, I guess.

Everybody's different. If it never clicks don't worry about it. It's not like it has to.

Yeah you're right.

[ Fire silent and send like that's the end of it, but Aether sits up suddenly on the bed now. ] Actually, I'm going to go out, I don't think I can just relax here right now, and I don't want to be uptight around the others in the soft room.

[ Putting his socks and shoes back on. ] Need anything while I'm out?

No, but... do you want me to come with or would you rather be alone?

Do you want to come? I'm more than happy to have your company, but you were resting earlier.

[ shrugs. ] I'm just waiting for Xiansheng to stop coddling everybody so we can go to bed, so in the meantime I'm free as a bird. [ he'll change into a fox and climb onto aether's shoulder. ]

[ grabbing his scarf and heads out of the room, closing the door. ] Get you back here for Zhongli-sensei's curfew. Got it.

How about we go get the tiny dot ice cream treats? They look fun.

I don’t think I’ve ever had those before, so sure. [ swishes his tail happily. ]

Let's go, then.

[ They're out the door , but will certainly be back later and without making Zhongli have to wait. ]
