[ well, since the scenery changes to reflect your mood, what he is currently looking at can only be described as. well. a desert. ]

I'm alright.

[she looks from him to the desert landscape, then sits down next to him]

You don't have to lie about it.

[it's emotionshare week, my dude.]

I will be fine.

[ even if he's very much not at the moment. ]

[that's a little more honest, at least. she sighs, and her concern doesn't vanish,
but she'll go quiet for a few moments.

and then - ]

What's on your mind right now...?

How I hope this is over sooner than later.

[ ... ]

How hard it is to break someone's jaw with a punch, if I tried pretty hard.

[that

shouldn't surprise her, but it kind of does, that he actually admitted that second part.]

I'm not very good at punching, but I'm sure it's possible to do, if you punch hard enough.

Probably.

But it's easy to break your hand if you don't do it right.

...good thing there's a medbay pod, then?

[a beat.]

Sorry, that was a bad joke.

It was, yeah.

[ but he thinks most of her jokes are bad so it's okay. ]

[we can't all be comedians]

...sorry.

[she

honestly does not know what to do here. mmmgh. she does want to help him - that much is obvious from the feelings she's giving off - but there's also a muted understanding that it's probably not going to be as easy as wanting to help.]

[ she's valid, because it's not like he really makes it easy for people to offer help to him.

but if she falls silent, so will he, and he turns his attention back to the scenery. ]

...

[she's quiet, watching the scenery with him for a little while, until he'll feel her vibes shift into something a little - determined?

then she gets up and wanders off.

...only to return with a little box of cream puffs which these particular ones may not be sold at airports but i have DEFINITELY seen cream puffs sold at airports before, so there. so she sets the box of it down next to him.]

[ oh...

he glances down at the offered food. there's a moment of nothing, before he reaches out to grab one. ]

[they're strawberry and sakura cream puffs, so it should probably be sweet...? hopefully he won't hate it!

she smiles faintly when he reaches out to take one, though, and there's a sense of relief. good. has he eaten since the trial? maybe cream puffs aren't the most nutritious food but it's better than nothing.]

[ the fuck is eating when you're distracted. ]

... very sweet.

Too sweet...?

[et tu, cream puffs, you have betrayed her]

They're fine.

[ he likes sweet, so it's really hard for something to be too much for him. ]

All right.

[good! if they're fine, at least he'll eat them, which means he'll be eating something.]

You can have some.

[oh! there's a brief bit of surprise at that, but she takes one of the puffs to try it.]

Thank you.

It's a good way to keep your energy up after the trial.

It is. [she smiles faintly] ...it's pretty tasty, too.

[ ... ]

You probably have other people to check on.

[bluntly:]

Are you saying that because my being here is bothering you, or because you think I'm just here out of some sort of obligation?

I think I'll always be bothered when people come to find me.

[ just, genuinely, because he really isn't someone who likes to spend a lot of time with other people. ]

And yes.
