Maybe I want a place to be active if monsters happen again!

[aiwillneversmile]

Put on a B-Komachi CD and live out your childhood years again. I'm not buying you a dance studio.

[aididitmyway]

There's not enough room!

[aiwillneversmile]

There's enough room. Just move your furniture around.

[aididitmyway]

[huff]

I don't ask for that much. Remember when I kept giving you your points back??

[aiwillneversmile]

When was this?

[aididitmyway]

When you first got here! You kept trying to give me points and I kept telling you no. My memory isn't that awful.

[aiwillneversmile]

[tbf he's sneaked her points so many times it's hard to keep track]

Ah, that. Guess my senescence is coming early. And you missed your chance, no take backs. Besides, you have enough on your own.

[aididitmyway]

[it's true tbh, but she sighs deeply]

I guess. You might need them to pay for your senility anyway.

[aiwillneversmile]

And my cane, too.

Do you have anything else to say that isn't a thin excuse to get at my points?

[despite the phrasing, the tone is soft. brother is concerned]

[aididitmyway]

... Not really, though... I am kind of curious about something.

Did you ever find the note I left you?

[aiwillneversmile]

What note?

[starts getting up like he's going to head to his room]

[aididitmyway]

Aqua—

[getting up to follow]

... The one after I died.

[aiwillneversmile]

. . . Oh.

[lost for a beat before sitting back down]

That note. Mm, the nurses gave it to me.

[aididitmyway]

Did it help?

[aiwillneversmile]

It did. It almost brought me to tears and also laughter. It was definitely the kind of message I expected from you.

[aididitmyway]

... Good.

I thought you'd need something like that. I'm glad I was right.

[aiwillneversmile]

. . . Why? Why did you think I needed it?

[aididitmyway]

Mm... so, you're the kind of person that feels things really deeply and would take things really personally.

I knew that back then. It's why I wanted those last days to be as happy as possible. It's why I didn't tell you anything was wrong.

[aiwillneversmile]

[eyes shifting down with a thousand yard stare, because wow that was a time . . . staying quiet for a good stretch]

. . . I've been listening to that song more often recently. Back home, at least. It helps.

[aididitmyway]

It does, doesn't it? That's why I picked it for you back then.

[aiwillneversmile]

Ruby . . . Can I have a hug?

[aididitmyway]

You don't have to ask me. It's always a yes.

[So, he's going to be getting a hug]

[aiwillneversmile]

[shh, he's showing some weakness, hugging her and slowly relaxing into it, this conversation has been too high tension for him]

[aididitmyway]

[she's more than glad to give him a hug for as long as he wants it

and she's a good hugger, anyway]
