[ Meteion is very distracted! She is also a bit staticky, with both sets of wings a gray color instead of her bright blue. But after a moment, she blinks over at him. ]
[ she carefully sits down, pressing against his side and resting her head on his shoulder. ]
I.. used a gumball earlier, on Sunlight. [ her hands rub at another anxiously. ] It's... meant to imbue someone with calm, and comfort, for a day. I couldn't find him earlier at his archway, so I was really worried, and when he saw Emet-Slech come back... he looked like, he was in so much pain.
[ her wings droop further, a black ink-like substance oozing from her wings. ] I.. thought maybe, it would help.
It... hurts. To not know, and then seeing someone you care deeply about, in pain...
[ it hurts a lot. countless times she has felt it back home, has felt it here. she really did just want to save him from at least most of that aching pain. maybe it would have been better without, but in that moment she could only think of comforting. ] ..I'm sorry.
...There's so much here that we can't control, even though we try our best to. So I can't blame you for making that choice.
[it might have been wrong if seen at some angles, but... it's not as if Meteion elected to take the pain away forever -- and in the spur of the moment like that, seeing Bass so caught up in his pain... if Itsuki had that option, then he might have done the same thing.]
And Bass-chan will definitely hear you out, no matter what. Don't beat yourself up too much until then, okay?
[He'll gently blot her eyes with a hankie if the tears get very big, otherwise he'll hold her close to him,]
...Yeah. [...] Want to plan out what you want to say? You can save it on your phone, like Buzen did.
[he doesn't want to even think about the possibility, much less bring it up, but... if Meteion's gone tomorrow -- wouldn't she want Bass to know? Regardless of what happens?
He thinks Bass would want that too, and Itsuki knows Meteion cares about him.]
[Oh... Itsuki has this covered but he's just glancing over when he hears that, looking a little concerned, since he'd only caught snatches of what had happened on those earlier returns. He'll also come over so he can gently pat her head, trying to comfort.]
[Her SWEETS PREFERENCE. He thinks it's cute too help. That's why he brought so many sweet snacks this time - for both Steel and Meteion - even though he isn't a fan.]

Feel free to take another one if you need it. I brought extra.
no subject
Oh.. thank you, Suki-chan.
no subject
Are you feeling okay? [WHY STATICKY?]
no subject
Maybe.. I did something wrong..
no subject
Wanna talk about it? Putting our heads together might help.

...You wanted to help him. Out of all of us here... you know how much it hurts -- the sadness, and pain.

..Okay. [ a soft breath. ] I, I'll apologize to him on Saturday, when I see him again. Thank you.. Suki-chan.

Itsusu's right - you just did what you thought was best. You can talk to him about it later and it'll be fine, I'm sure.

Thanks, Itsusu. I brought some snacks and stuff, too, just in case anyone gets hungry. And a bowl if anyone wants to play Konpira Funefune.
[They aren't even drinking but listen. It's a fun game.]
no subject
...Good idea. Should be more fun than playing Old Maid again.
no subject
Old Maid's not too bad, but I feel like being a little nostalgic tonight.
[A rare mood for a peanut.]

He huffs a little at the cheek squish, and tugs on Kashuu's little ponytail]
You think Steel-san knows how to play?
[since she's from FICTIONAL JAPAN]
no subject
Maybe? Let's ask! We can play for snacks instead of drinks.
no subject
Hm, I'm having a tough time deciding who'll be the winner...
no subject
Depends on the prize. If it's dessert, none of us are gonna beat Steel...
no subject
[um that's so cute?]
