I know, I know...

My stupidity aside... knowing all this makes me determined to do what I can for you now. Brothers in arms kind of thing, even if it sounds kind of cheesy.

I'm just sorry I didn't do what I could sooner.

He returns the smile, though with a little more of a spark, an unspoken equivalent to a ruffling of her hair. Being sad is for losers. Let's focus on something not so sad, shall we? So he gathers the blanket close as he pushes himself to his feet.]


I'd be happy to. Where would you like me to start?

Goes along with your friends being so important to you, right?

[That smirk strengthens a bit, rueful but honest. Acknowledging the loss, the sight of what looked to be her friends from home, and letting it be for what they could do now. Dwelling on it too heavily was what got the other room in such a mess, after all.]

What do I need to do, then, to help build that base up? Anything special?

[Okay, he has to laugh at that.]

Should be easy enough, right? Seeing what I got stuck with thanks to Nix.

[A tug at the Heart on his shirt.]

Do you want me to talk it out, or just do whatever feels natural?

Oh, Cascade--!

[Pfffft okay the nickname makes a LITTLE more sense now.]

Yeah, he's new. I wasn't aware you guys had met.

Hey, hey, let them figure that out for themselves. It'll be good for them.

[But Cascade and Sakura are from the same world, huh? He'll have to file that away for later.

For now, he pauses to think. What does he want for Roxy?? Hell, what DOESN'T he want for Roxy at this point? But he should find a way to be concise about it, anyway.

Exhaling deeply, he tucks the cube under one arm, holding out his hands toward her.]


I know this might sound off, but... could you come here for a second?

As long as I don't get caught by surprise. It, ah. It takes some work.

That aside, I'd still like to be able to hug a friend who's dear to me.

[Hey, no complaints here. Mostly a one-armed hug from him with the other holding onto that cube, but he holds her close and firm, an aura of protectiveness around it.

It's hard. He knows he's being such a hypocrite here, and there's a fear that it will color what he passes on. But... just because he can't follow the advice himself doesn't make it any less true.]


I want you to be happy, Roxy. Not just for the sake of it, or to make things get by for the people around you. My hope is that... somehow, with the people you're meeting here, you find your way back to happiness. That you have plenty of chances to smile and enjoy things, while never forgetting the past that's made you how you are. I hope you're loved as much as you choose to love in return... even if you can be plenty stubborn about it. I hope you find the bravery to speak up when you feel overwhelmed or scared. I hope you cherish what you have here.

And... I hope you can keep going. Find ways to heal. Find the ways I... still haven't found myself. You're only a teenager, you know? You have so much life left to live.

...

I don't want to see you ever give up. My wish is that you keep finding your reasons to continue. Find your reasons to smile and laugh and love someone, even if it scares you to pieces.

Until then, I want to be here to help you out whenever you need me.

You mean, besides the fact that you're my friend?

[Not a defense, just a teasing clarification.

Also gonna kiss her hair gently. Missed you, Roxy.]
