I'm not forcing it when I'm with you.

[It's a simple answer for a simple feeling. No, being with him doesn't magically make everything better, but he makes her smile, makes her laugh, makes her genuinely want to see him every day. She wants to see what every new day holds with him.

Her fingers massage gently against the back of his neck, as if she could somehow transfer her own strength into him with just her touch, and she bumps her nose lightly against his.]
You can have as much of my energy as you need.

[Listen it just means it's mental energy--

She shifts, just a little, to accommodate the change in position, but just keeps holding him. If this is what he needs right now, that's what he'll get. One hand stays in his hair, the other gently rubs his back in a gesture she really hopes he takes as soothing and not childish.]


Of course I don't mind. We'll get it taken care of, I promise.

[She tilts her head and lets it press against his with a quiet exhale. No, she doesn't know how yet, but... they'll think of something. Dazai will know what to do.]

Just... please don't shut me out again, okay? Not on purpose.

[Listen, one way or another, it's getting taken care of. No matter what she has to do. There's a bit of a shudder in her breath with that resolution, but she'll do it. For his sake, if nothing else.

She huffs a little humorless laugh through her nose and turns her head to lightly press her lips to his cheek.]


I was worried. You've never shut me out like that before.

[She knows she's done it to him, if not physically with a door, definitely emotionally more than once.]

[That patheticness is charming, though, in a way! And in this moment, even knowing how heavy his emotions must feel, that he can still manage to be a little lighter when talking about her -- it's equal parts endearing and stressful. She doesn't want to let him down, no matter what.

She smiles a bit when he straightens that little bit, shifting just enough to take his hands in her own and squeeze them both gently.]


Then will you come outside with me? Sometimes being sad outside doesn't feel as crushing as being sad inside.

Sure.

[Yeah, that's enough. It's not as much as she's hoping for, but it's something, a break from stagnation. The people who'd suffered from Apathy Syndrome seemed to just stop where they stood, so... if he can keep moving, maybe he'll be okay.

She cups his cheeks and gives him another kiss, once again as if she might somehow impart some of her own energy to him. If only it was that easy, right? But in short order, she takes his hand and tugs gently.]


C'mon. We can at least go be sad in the fresh air.
