Did it help?

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

... Good.

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

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

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.

[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.

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

Ruby . . . Can I have a hug?

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

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

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

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

and she's a good hugger, anyway]

[taking a deep breath before letting her go, catching her hand upon parting though]

Thank you. For always thinking of me.

I know I kinda blackmailed you into it in the beginning, but you're one of the best things that's ever happened to me.

It only makes sense that I'd always be thinking of you.
