Kaveh's also dressed up--you saw it already so waves hand. He looks... well. Better isn't quite the word for it, but something along those lines. Something close to being at peace, as much as is possible for what happened yesterday.]
I was looking for you too, actually. [Aww, Topper; he smiles and crouches down, holding out his hands for Topper.] I like your outfit--you and Mehrak would match.
[ topper will sneef and then immediately crawl into his hand to climb up his arm carefully and nuzzle his cheek, tail curled around his neck! eiden sits up more, offering him a smile and patting a space beside him. also topper has a bow too i realized. ]
Heh, we could take a Christmas picture all together at this rate.
I had something I wanted to talk about, but first I wanted to see how you were feeling.
[TOPPER FOR MR. HOMO!!!!! Kaveh nuzzles Topper back as he comes to sit, petting him gently.]
We can, if you'd like. [He's done a good enough job covering up his horrible hangover face, he thinks? Probably.
But, ah. He's quiet for a moment as he considers how to respond.]
...It's strange, that she's not there. [Eventually.] I keep expecting to wake up and see her walking in the door. Even though I never spent much time with her in Sumeru...
[Even though so much of his life was separate from his Archon--it feels so quiet and empty without her.]
But I got a message from her this morning. So it's a little easier to bear.
A little girl who reads a lot of books because she needs an escape from her terrible life... she's very clever and smarter than all of the adults who try to put her down.
And no matter what, she keeps trying her best for herself and all of her friends.
[It hurts to think about--but Kaveh's always been the sort to turn towards pain, rather than away from it. For a lot of reasons, not in the least of which is the certainty that he deserves to suffer.
That's his own twisted form of coping, though. And it's not something he wants to dump on Eiden, who has been through so much on his own already. So he squeezes Eiden's hand.]
I think so? I had to ask around for some advice, since it's not a language I'd ever seen before. But I'm not sure how accurate it was, since I ended up asking Haru...
