"This is Ekko. Get back to you when I can."

[Hythlodaeus just smiles and nods in agreement.]

I'd certainly have no arguments against getting to know her better, if she'd like that.

[And he gives the young man a gentle squeeze.]

If you need somewhere to go for some peace and quiet, you'll both be welcome here. Without question.

[ctrl_z]

Yeah... I know.

[Though he's not sure how Jinx would take to peace and quiet.

He takes a deep breath, then lets it out. At the very least, he feels steadier.]

Thanks... For lending an ear.

[modestpurpose]

[He just gives the young man a warm look.]

Of course. It was my pleasure. I've grown rather fond of you already, you know.

[ctrl_z]

[That... he doesn't know what to make of that, either. Perhaps a slight embarrassment and sheepishness. He gives Hythlodaeus a little nudge.]

Remind me to take you to the Undercity, sometime, in the Enclosure.

[At least there they can have a bit more of a normal conversation that doesn't entail Ekko being an emotional mess.]

[modestpurpose]

[He gives Ekko a bright smile and a little nudge in return.]

I would like to see it.

[And he means that entirely genuinely!]

If you'd like to see Amaurot in turn, I could show you.

[ctrl_z]

Yeah... yeah. That sounds good.

[His hand comes up, fist bumping on Hythlodaeus's arm - a gesture of comraderie. It's a bit strange, doing it for a "Piltie", but...

Well. Hythlodaeus is one strange Piltie.]

Think I'll go check in on her again. Maybe do something so we can forget about all that crap for a bit.

[modestpurpose]

[He glances down at his arm, a little surprised, then smiles and chuckles softly.]

Of course. You know how to find me if you have need of me.

[ctrl_z]

Yeah.

[He definitely seems a little lighter for it, and he gives a little salute before heading off.]
