[oh no,

there's a spike of shock intermingled with fear, along with genuine concern -- the kind that comes when you're worried about someone you care about so much,]

...Can I sit with you?

[he has a million questions but first,]

[meteion]

[ she doesn't say anything else, simply nods. rather she even reaches out with her hand-- it's okay, she's healed enough to stabilize, at least? ]

[nightchild]

[he'll immediately take her hand, enclosing it with both of his.]

...I'm glad you're here, Mete-chan.

[glad she's alive, even if he's not glad for the rest of what she apparently experienced]

[meteion]

[ she's quiet still, but after a moment she offers the best smile she can muster, even if there's an aching pain swimming in her chest. ]

..Thank you, for waiting for me.

[nightchild]

...Always.

[it hurts to see her try to smile... he tries for calm and reassuring,]

Whatever happens, wherever you are... I'll be here for you.

[meteion]

[ she will raise his hand for her to nuzzle her cheek against gently.]

You too. I'll.. I'll always try to be here for you. I love you, Suki-chan. [ a feeling of familial love shared with him. ]

[nightchild]

[warmth swells up inside him, quieting the rest of his anxious emotions,]

...I love you too.

[love and gratitude too, for meteion being here, and for her love]

Thank you, Mete-chan.
