[ thinks about him offering to jump of a cliff. fair enough!!
ah... his smile softens a little further, fond. ]
You've offered me more than enough. [ please. ]... Do you think we could go up and look at the stars again? I want to try and remember them, for a little longer.
[ currently my literal only knowledge of elden ring is whatever alli says in chat and also that this dude jumpscares me every time i see him on twitter so i believe you 100%.
off they go!! this time, rondo's the one who is very quiet on the walk up, but - maybe it's a nice silence? it's peaceful, or... thoughtful, or who knows which. it's just been a long week. and when they're nearly there - when he has to look away from the spot where camille died and turn his face upwards, towards the sky, towards the future: ]
...I've one more very small favor to ask you. If you could pick out a few books from the library to bring back, would you be willing to do so? Just...things you think would be interesting. Or... things that you think maybe other people would like to read.
they will give rondo some peace without forcing any sort of conversation. very war of them. we will not acknowledge where camille was demolished.... ]
Hmm.
[ they have to mull it over a minute. mostly because they are... a wizard, so the things they read is such a specific genre for the magic hyperfixiated. ]
One of the books about basic survival. A cookbook. And... an anthology of fairytales, or some other such stories.

he seems to just like - sag a little in relief, at that, finally. some of the tension bleeds out of his shoulders, and he nods. ]
...Thank you.
[ there's a very long pause, after that, and he reaches up to rub his hand over his face. ]
It has been... a very long week. But... at least there's that to look forward to.

I wish there was more I could offer you; however...
[ they are atrocious at the comfort thing, ok. at least, getting the nerve to offer it readily on their end without being bullied. ]

Very well. I don't mind.
[ it did remind them of home anyway. so of course they enjoy the roth city which is definitely not the soifra river from elden ring. ]
