...That's not fair to you, though.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

What's telling everyone else gonna do about it? ... s'just drama for no reason. Nothing's gonna actually change and-- if it did, they'd be all bitter at me over it, so it's not worth it.

... even besides that, it's not gonna bring any of the others... back. So...

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

Ugh. I just... I don't want you to have to feel like this. Like you can't rely on the rest of the unit to care about your feelings.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

Nn...

[ quiet... for a bit ]

... do that too much as it is, anyway.

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

It's 'cause we care about you. You're important.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

Yeah but nobody else's losing their shit like this.

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

We all lose our shit sometimes.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

[ snorts, a little bitterly; ]

Not over the stupid shit I do.

... I'll deal. Sorry you had to-- come out here. You shouldn't've.

[ scrunches her nose a bit, but just. lets this happen.

with the vaguely miserable expression the combination of it + squish is pretty comedic. honestly. ]

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

[squish squish]

You need to stop blaming yourself for shit.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

[ kinda muffled ]

S'literally my fault though.

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

Will you at least believe that I came here because I wanted to?

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

... 'course I would. Doesn't mean you couldn't be-- doing something better with your time or somethin'.

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

[...SQUISH]

If there was something else I'd rather be doing, I'd be doing that.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

[ ssssags a little... ]

Okaaay, okay...

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

[releases her]

I'm gonna stay here with you for a while. That okay?

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

[ huffs, slouching. ]

... okay. If you want.

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

Naw, I'm totally being held against my will.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

I wasn't... doing anything exciting or anything, just. Warning you.

S'boring.

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

Like I can't handle boring.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

[ ... huffs, taking a few steps back to sit in on the bench again. ]

Well... thanks.

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

[sitting next to her]

No problem.

Re: 243, later

[stakesthesame]

[ ... sags against him, after a moment. ]

Re: 243, later

[avestan]

[wraps an arm around her shoulders]
