speaking of. strohl calls a come in - seeing haru on the other side, his expression warms, and though the tiki blanket does get him to snort, he'll take it. ]
I wonder who's fault that was... [ teasing, though. ] Then again, we were the ones who crashed your hard work, so I think we're even.
It's good to see you, Nanase. [ warmly. he nudges out one of the chairs in the first aid are? come sit. ] Genuinely. You never realise how difficult it is to get by with letters until you're watching people on a screen all day.
[ he shakes his head because the town hall was never going to be much more than sharing letters. what else is there to talk about? airport's haunted still? horse is out there?
but he will come sit, setting the blanket on the cot. ]
...It's good to see you too. [ while he hasn't been in the graveyard, he's seen what it did to rin last time. it's difficult. ] But you don't need to worry so much. I have it... easier than you all think.
[ mostly in that he thinks possessed killers and victims are much worse off. ]
[ THE HORSE IS STILL OUT THERE..... truly.........
easier than you all think, he says. strohl huffs - his thoughts project, briefly; strong as ever. ]
If I've learned anything about you over these weeks, Nanase, it is that you can roll with the punches. Even still, I've more than enough room to worry for all of you and then some, enough that you'll find it devastatingly annoying.
[ that protective streak of strohl's is a mile wild; his people are his everything. some of the warmer smile, the tease in his voice falters after that, though, and more seriously: ]
[ that is a very generous assessment, which haru looks surprised by, but doesn't argue. it's a conclusion that suits strohl. ]
...I won't tell you to stop worrying completely. I know you can't.
[ he says it mildly, because this too also simply suits strohl. it is who he is, and sometimes you have to let people worry a little. he smooths out a wrinkle on the blanket idly. ]
Rin is more... [ hmmm ] He's someone who's always looking forward. It's hard on him, but he'll be okay, I think.
