Moshi moshi!

[hairpincurves]

... Yeah.

[... She wants to change the subject, but she's not sure what to...]

[foolishjustice]

But, aside from some homesickness...are you feeling better now?

[hairpincurves]

Yeah, much...

[She's still leaning against him, though.]

[foolishjustice]

That's good.

[Well, he's pretty sure he's still on enforced break, so he's not planning on going anywhere just yet...]

[hairpincurves]

[... She's actually gonna snuggle a bit closer, in fact.]

[foolishjustice]

[In that case...he'll just shift over to his Silveragle form for an extra pair of limbs to wrap around her.]

[hairpincurves]

[No objections here. This is pretty nice...]

[foolishjustice]

Mmm...maybe Kurama was right about me needing a break.

[hairpincurves]

I'd definitely say he was. Like I said before, you look exhausted. And I'm not surprised you're all but running yourself into the ground...

[Huff! She's not especially happy about that...]

[foolishjustice]

Ahaha...well...it's partly that I just haven't been sleeping well.

[hairpincurves]

... Nightmares, huh.

[Not exactly anything new, really, but she wouldn't be surprised if Goro had new ones after that subfissure...]

[foolishjustice]

Mm...about what I saw from Akira-kun's timeline.

[hairpincurves]

[She cringes a little, then hugs him a bit tighter.

It's clear she already has a few guesses, just based on those words alone...]

[foolishjustice]

[It...might be his turn to cling a bit now. She doesn't look as much like her counterpart as he does to his, but...the idea of his instability turning him against his friends in general is terrifying.]

[hairpincurves]

[O-oh... She'll start rubbing his back a bit, then.]

[foolishjustice]

You saw yourself that I'm still...not exactly stable...

[hairpincurves]

No, but... you have people here who won't let you fall that far, you know? If you feel yourself slipping, we'll pull you back up. That sort of thing... definitely won't happen with you.

[foolishjustice]

...It still sometimes feels strange, thinking about the fact that I have people who really will support me, even when they see me at my worst. Thank you.

[hairpincurves]

You're welcome. I'm just glad I can help, even a little.

[foolishjustice]

All of my friends help. You're all the reason I'm doing as well as I am.

[hairpincurves]

And we'll be here to keep helping. I think that's something I can safely say for all of your friends.

[foolishjustice]

It's still strange, after all my years alone, but...it is comforting.

[hairpincurves]

Heh... I'm glad.

[foolishjustice]

[You know what? It's his turn to just snuggle quietly.]

[hairpincurves]

[... Yeah, snuggling quietly sounds good. She'll fall silent as well.]
