[ he's just having a sit on some of the grass where the hiking trail breaks into the garden. it's a nice little segue with space that clearly looks like maybe he enjoyed a nap earlier? yeah. there is still a little grass in his hair. womp. ]
It's about time we got somewhere decent and green that'll stick around.
At the flight deck, you'd look at the plants. Rather than easy, maybe a lucky guess?
[ Well, since Artemy is already sitting, it's easy to just reach out and brush some of that little grass outta his hair. Before they plop to take a seat. Looking at everything. ]
Doesn't beat actual outdoors but it's better than nothing. Plenty of trees around at least, so I can start some whittling.
[ allows this brushing, a slight tension out of the fact that he wasn't expecting it, but none the less he nods his thanks, tilting his head a little once they are done. ]
Just like you'll always find me outside late at night.
[ Does offer a more apologetic smile after that slight tension. Feeling they may have overstepped there. Scolding themselves, they shouldn't try to reach out so willy-nilly like that. ]
Mmm.. keep it as a surprise? I was thinking of making some things for the team.
[ the apologetic smile is returned similarly, a light shake of the
head following, patting the grass beside him. sit. ]
Mm, and I look forward to whatever it is you plan to surprise us with,
then. I was a little uncertain about our group at first, but I'm afraid
I've gotten a bit attached.
[ the underlying message of: i don't want anyone to go if it can be
helped. ]
[ There's a brief look of surprise. Taking those words in, mulling it over their head, and.. promptly ducking half of their half into the collar of their cloak. A bit of hiding - likes knowing... huh. But they will settle beside, effectively tucking their arms and most of themselves in the comfort of their own cloak. Becomes a sitting white triangle. A small nod as they listen, watching him.
(It isn't as if you feel differently.) ]
..We've got a good group going. I want them to feel like.. they can trust to rely on me. For anything.
[ triangle....... artemy just flops onto his side, arm pillowing his head and he lays there. the tired animal of his body demands more rest, the phantom pains in his leg, the ache of missing his home... but this.
this is restorative in its own way.
he listens patiently, returning those words with a nod of his own before his eyes close. ]
That is exactly it... [ that is what i want, too ] ... and... I do trust you. I am certain I can.
[ This is valid. Looking at him, it doesn't take at all long for Siffrin to lean back and just
flop onto the grass. Peering upwards, blinking slowly as their vision swims a little. Zoning out just barely until they glance over before slowly back up again. ]
[ he meets their eye, face turned to the side as they glance over before turning skyward again. he joins them, shifting onto his shoulders to rest hands in the grass.
palms down, it doesn't feel like home. there's no beat here, no sensation like so many threads around his fingertips.
but. ]
I hope that perhaps, in time, you will feel the same way, too.

Anything in mind for your whittling project then?
