[torchbearer]

I just need some time.

[avatarfortruth]

Sure. You know I have your back.

[avatarfortruth]

I'm always sure of that.

[ She squeezes his shoulder, then lets go, shifting. ]

Would you like company tonight? I wouldn't mind sleeping on the floor, or the couch.

No. It's not a good idea. It won't be safe.

[avatarfortruth]

[avatarfortruth]

Alright.

[ And he needs to sleep; if she were here, he might stay awake just out of concern for her. ]

Then I'll check in with you in the morning.

Thanks Diana.
