Yes. And you can make 'em out of anything.

Anything you can stack, at least.

[ water would not a good fort make, unless you had some special water powers. and Sakura doesn't approve of the whole "sinking to the bottom of the pool" thing ]

[We could FREEZE the water?]

Yeppers!

Did the Pumpkin Soup help?

[ well, that could work, yes. have a pretty ice castle for these two princesses ]

It did. I shared it with Rage and Hope. There were two times I almost used it, but it wouldn't have been fair.

[Yes, only good things there.]

Fair?

To you. Doom offered it to me after she showed me what Roxy had gone through. You never had the option to use that soup. And in the void... Doom helped me again instead of using that. I wanted to share it with you, where you needed it.

[She's quiet for a few moments.]

[Then she smiles, reaching up to touch his cheeks.]

You're really nice.

[ stares at her ]

I'm still learning.

[ you've helped bring that part out, at least ]

That just means it's who you are at the core. Someone who cares.

[ averts his eyes a little because embarrassing, but also feelings are still confusing ]

Part of me didn't-- doesn't?-- want to. It's a lot of effort to invest in someone.

[ but, kind of obvious he's willing to if someone is made important to him somehow ]

...but I don't regret anything here.

Hmmm, it is. But it's amazing what happens with enough of a reason. Still think you're kind.

I'm glad.

That's good.

[ especially with what first happened with face cracking and Trickster Shit ]

[Yes, all that.]

[She smiles.]

And I'm glad to have met you.

Even if we have to re-meet again after this.

[ hiding feeeeeelings. and even if he sucks and never gave a proper name ... ]

[She shrugs.]

Sometimes it's not so bad. Meeting people you were meant to. People you feel like ya know before you do.

I'm still adjusting to the idea of people knowing me before I know them.

[ but this will be a good perspective change for him ]

As long as you're okay with it, that's fine.

I am.

It'll be a nice change of pace for me to.

[ yay, more things for us to work through together ]

. . . It makes me relieved I was able to get back here. But I probably shouldn't stay too long.

[ glancing over at Sakura ]

He'll probably stay for a while longer. I promised Doom and Rage I'd go see them and I don't know how much time is left. I just... wanted to make sure you were okay.

[She smiles and hugs him again.]

I am.

You've made it...feel a lot easier here.

Thank you.

[ collecting all the hugssssss ]

Just try to remember that the glass can be repaired, if something does happen.

[ you're welcome, too ]

[She pauses.]

....I will.

[ firm nod ]

Good. I'll be going to see Doom now. Take care.

[ and thanks... especially for forgiveness ]

The mackerel was good, too.

You too.

Thank you. And you're welcome.

[ one more nod before adventures to Doom! ]

[Doom adventures all day everyday.]
