Who: Everyone messed up by the dragon plot, and visitors
Broadcast: N/A
Action: Blue Fish's clinic!
When: All throughout the Solrius dragon plot and through the space flight to the next destination.
[So several RPG characters, a dragon, and two messianic figures walk into a planet.
Everything is suffering and tears, there's a lot of dead people, there's no punchline. But, hey, for the survivors, the Blue Fish's clinic is treating wounds and generally being a decent place to rest and recover and pray you don't see a dragon again. And for those who weren't involved, there's enough people bedridden here that there may just be someone you want to visit.]

[Stefan takes another breath, pulling back so he can look at Sorey. God, his eyes are so bloodshot by now, but he had intended to comfort his akhi and he was gonna stick to that.]
You can't change what you've done, but you can move forward and I promise, as long as I'm here? You've got me too.

Malevolence comes in part from a denial of the self, so if I can't come to terms with- with what I- [Mikleo, Mikleo, Mikleo...
Sorey clutches harder.] I don't want to lose the others. I-I can't be responsible for any more of- I was supposed to be their safe harbor, Stefan.
no subject
You still are. But part of being a safe harbor is knowing when to switch on the lighthouse. Let your friends know where dangerous waters are. [He bites on his lip, because he wants to sigh and he - he can't, he can't talk about this like he's experienced it, because it'll make his denial that much more real.] We've all done things we're not proud of.
I've done so much crap I'm not proud of. That's normal, and I can't say it'll ever go away, but... if you reach out, and let others share your thoughts, it gets easier.

Sorey squeezes Stefan's arm again before finally letting go and drawing back to himself.] ...thank you. Really, I mean it. I don't...I don't feel like I deserve your support or understanding right now, but I think in the future I might feel differently. And- and thank you, for. [His cheeks go a little red.] I'm sorry. I don't have something to call you in return that means as much.
no subject
You're welcome. You don't have to call me anything, either - if you find something that works, you will, and if you don't? Well, you could always call me akhi too.
[If it's not too hard for the kid to pronounce. Stefan half wonders if he should've gone with the Italian form or maybe even asked what brother means in some of those ancient languages they've uncovered. As much as he adores his native tongue, he knows that it can be a mouthful..]
no subject
Saying it feels warm though, in a way that he doesn't feel he deserves. This is a piece of Stefan's history and culture and he's freely handing it over to Sorey to use. It's a kindness that Sorey in particular can appreciate.]
no subject
Sure, he'd brought it up. He wasn't expecting Sorey to take him up on it, much less pronounce it perfectly. Give him a couple of seconds; he's tearing up again.] More than okay.
