He's not unreasonable. Overly dramatic and the villain of his own story sometimes because he doesn't think about better options for himself, but reasonable. Overloading him with information right now isn't going to help, but holding it back from him entirely won't either. We just have to balance it out. Let him ask the questions when he's ready. You might be better for some of it than me though because you're not as close to the situation. Also... you guys are the ones who went through it.
[ he is simply god. ]
It'd be easier, and that's why I wonder if we're going to get that option. I don't like not knowing what might come up.
Questions are easy. He at least knows something has happened.. so. I'll just wait and see. But, he went to the bar a lot, right? There's some things he might feel more comfortable hearing and learning from you, too.
[ Gabriel also has some worth here. ]
..Probably not. If it makes things too easy, something tells me it won't be what they'll do. [ But the look on their face suggests they wish that was the case. A team with people they know. ]
Yeah, he was there a lot. I just meant more since I obviously didn't go through the same mechanics or the trials or anything as you guys did, it might not be as impactful to hear that kind of stuff coming from me. I have my own conversations prepared for him.
[ jonas, on the other hand, is more thoughtful. ]
... easier isn't always the better way though, when it comes to something like this. If we do have to split up at least all of us have a reason to try and make any team we're on more stable.
I guess there is that, along with those excursions...
[ But even if not having gone through it personally...
(Well, you think your own thoughts on the mechanics and trials would probably be a bit too emotional and not helpful to Jacopo at all.) ]
Right. I think any team that gets you would be lucky to have you. [ A pause. ] Just.. don't carry the burden of things all on your own. And if you ever need a break and some quiet, you'll know where to find me.
Especially those, too. I get the feeling if this is really going to be something like shared experiences we might not be lucky and we'll have to go through those, too.
[ but he sighs. ]
Thanks, Siff. Even if somehow we're not on the same team you know you can come find me anytime you want, right? Even just hanging out and not doing anything. I never mind your company. [ he is not great at not carrying all of his own burdens, but that's jonas in general. the least he can do is extend the same courtesy for someone he knows is still impacted by what happened. a friend. ]

[ Said with a deep frown, as if they wish there was another way. ]
..Of course. Just like you can always come find me. [ Not do anything. Whether it's mindless chatter of silence. Offers a reassuring small smile. ]

I'll remember that. Promise.
