I told you that you didn't have to face things alone, didn't I?
[ He looks back at Malice. His expression is incredibly earnest. ]
I don't know what kind of guy I'd be if I told you that without making good on it. We're pretty similar...and I relate to a lot of the things you've been through.
[ He pauses, debating whether to add on something - ultimately, he decides to go for it. ]
Yeah. It's pretty damn hard to open up 'bout this sorta stuff. But I appreciate that you've trusted me with it. An' that you've got my back.
[It means more to him than words can possibly express. When you're someone who's so used to losing people, it can be difficult to open yourself up for attachment again. But he's also someone who's so desperate for companionship, he can't really stop himself from doing it. So this, right here and now, is exactly what he's been searching for.
You're noisy, violent and you tease me all the time. ... But you're also very honest and patient. More caring than you let on. You're not as simple to me as you say you are, but I find that interesting.

Goodbye, Yamato. ]
What, would you miss talking with me?
[ Deflect, deflect!! ]
no subject
[0 shame, 0 hesitation.]
So we're gonna have'ta find a way to keep in contact, yeah?
no subject
Oh, no. He's embarrassed, now. He rubs the back of his head and averts his gaze, trying to act very natural. ]
You think that'd be possible?
no subject
I hope so. I mean, we've got magic, yeah? We should be able to figure somethin' out.
no subject
That's true.
[ He's a little pink. Don't mind him. He's not used to people being so nice to him, in spite of everything he is. ]
... It'd be too quiet if we never spoke again, anyway.
no subject
[Hopefully someone put the glitter away so he cannot be tempted by it again...]
So don't go gettin' all sad on me just yet, we've still got plenty of time to figure somethin' out!
no subject
[ HOW COULD HE FORGET..... ]
And who said I was sad? I'm just saying that you're noisy.
no subject
But anyway!!]
Yeah, yeah, just like you never said you'd miss me? C'mon Yama, I know how to read you by now!
no subject
[ Much to his detriment. Now Malice will never let him live anything down. Fuck. ]
And I never admitted to that, anyway!
no subject
[But he's grinning, and he'll let it go there.]
...Thanks, though. For listenin' to me 'bout all that crap.
[And for not being scared off by it, but that's one he'll keep to himself.]

It's not like I open up to just anyone, myself.

He just hopes nothing bad happens.]
no subject
[ He gets a little meek again. It's weird, being as open as he's being right now, and he wonders why that is. ]
Since you decided all of that wasn't enough to deter you, or something like that.
[ Yeah. He hopes nothing bad happens, too. ]
no subject
[He's a simple guy like that. But he grins and shakes his head.]
I appreciate hearin' it, but you'd have to be a lot worse to me personally to deter me! So nice try, but you ain't pushin' me away that easily!
[That part's obviously a joke, though.]
no subject
[ He looks very serious when he says this.
After a moment, though, he breaks out into laughter. ]
I'm kidding, I'm kidding. I wouldn't do that to you.
no subject
You had me goin' for a moment there, though! You're a pain.
[Said affectionately, of course!!]
no subject
Didn't you say you knew how to read me by now? Come on, I'm not the difficult one between the two of us.
no subject
no subject
[ ... ]
There.
no subject
...Huh. Not arguin' with most'a that, but I've always thought of myself as a pretty simple guy.
[He'd argue the caring thing as well, but he is trying to be better about that, so he'll let it slide.]
Thanks, though. I appreciate it, Yama.
no subject
[ Whoops. ]
no subject
no subject
[ And it's surprisingly easy to be, right now. ]
I don't know how you do it so often.
no subject
[IN CASE THAT WASN'T OBVIOUS...]
Just don't see much of a point in beatin' 'round the bush without a good reason, y'know?
[He'll keep some things to himself, but generally? He's an open book.]
no subject
[ He says that kindly, though, and he gives Malice a little nudge. ]
It's not a bad thing. I don't mind it.
