[...ah. That tracks.]

I think... most of us know that feeling very well. But - you must know, people consider you their friend too. That means they would rather not see you hurt in their place.

[ruffboi]

Yeah. I'm, uh, trying to remember that.

[fishingforcompliments]

...such a thing is much easier said than done, is it not?

[ruffboi]

Yeah.

[His smile fades a little.]

I've grown up a lot since that memory, but I also know better what it's like, to lose someone you care about. So - it's gotten easier to believe that I won't always be strong enough to deal with anything, but not exactly easier to accept it.

[fishingforcompliments]

...well... if we are lucky, then we will all be strong enough together that we will not have to lose anyone.

[At least, not permanently. If they can bring back the dead and all make it out of this, somehow...]

That is something we could all accept, I think.

[ruffboi]

[Putting a hand on her shoulder.]

Yeah. Couldn't of said it better. Let's work together and get it done, huh?

[fishingforcompliments]

Yes.

[She smiles up at him.]

We shall do exactly that.

[Oh! Well. Hm.]

I would love to! What would you like to do first?

[ruffboi]

Since it's raining, you wanna go check out the arts and crafts cabin?

[fishingforcompliments]

Sure! That would be a lot of fun.

[ONWARD. they can make some hideous macaroni art!]

[ruffboi]

[Yes, they spend the day making beautiful macaroni art and also? Friendship bracelets?]
