[sighs and rubs a hand along her back, trying for soothing.]

Well, what do you think you could have done differently?

Re: day 93 post game

I could have tried to keep hold of my wits instead of breaking down and crying like a child, at least.

Hm. But that's kind of hard to do when you're not mentally ready for it.

It's not like I'm any better with some things.

And I'm pretty sure Kuroro even has things like that, even if he won't show it as easily.

Would you hold it against us if we responded like that?

I don't know. I guess I wouldn't.

But it still feels bad.

[quiiiiet for a moment, definitely thinking but also. it's thinking about certain painful things, so. being careful about what words to use here.]

... do you want me to help figure out how to make it feel less bad or do you just want me to hold you?

Those are the only two options I'm allowing here.

[BEATO'S FAVORED DEPRESSIO OPTION IS OFFICIALLY OFF THE TABLE HERE.]

[she gives a little sniffle of an almost-laugh]

Nothing else allowed, huh? That's so unfair. But I guess that's what I was asking for by calling you here.

...Just hold me? I don't want to figure anything out right now.

[things he will do: hold onto her like a lifeline.

things he will not do right now: close his eyes whatsoever.]

... yeah, I'm glad you did call me over, though.

[mutual lifelines tbh]

I did think about just being alone, but... having you here to ground me is better. So thank you.

[not that it's not just as much for his sake]
