[ just. going to walk around the library with topper quietly wrapped around his neck, his hands stuffed into his pockets. his head a mess of just pure knot-like emotions, twisting in on each other. when he sees nahida, he stays a little bit out of the influence of their emotions just yet, hovering before giving her a wave. ]
...I don't either. We answered some questions at the trial, but... there are still many questions that were left unanswered. And even having found the culprit, it doesn't fix any of this.
[ he will sit across from her and rest his head on his arms quietly. there's a soft little rustling noise and suddenly topper sneaks his head out of the back of eiden's jacket.
and slithers onto the table to just curl up and rest between them. he is peaceful this emotion share saturday, and while he feels eiden's stress, he spent the day in the woods, so mostly, he can comfort and offer a soft, warm trust, radiating it towards them both. ]
It definitely doesn't, because someone's going to end up dying tomorrow. Again. Stupid place.
[ topper makes a little noise and curls in such a way that he is available for tummy rubs if that would soothe u as well (it sure would soothe him). ]
Yeah... like I get we need to have hope, we need to grin and bear it and try and figure this thing out from the inside where we're playing, but at the same time...
[ he rubs his temples and gives a very tired smile. ]
this super didn't age well. help. anyway, she will give topper idle tummy rubs as she and eiden talk.]
It is. But in all my observations of all the different sorts of people in Teyvat... I've learned that people as a whole are incredibly resilient. It's hard, but... I have faith that we can find a way through it.
...if we allow ourselves to be paralyzed by grief and doubt, then we may as well be giving up. And if that's the case... then we've all lost this Game, even if we haven't been erased.
