I like to think I'm a good judge of character.

[ He pushes himself back up with a sigh, offering Blue an arm. He isn't fully aware that pushing him off might have hurt him at all. He just... doesn't love being touched, not in ways he doesn't choose, but an arm to help Blue walk, he can do ]

Sure. Need some time to recover after... all that.

[firstroar]

[right...'all that.'

Blue silently takes Yuri's arm, silently works his way up the stairs with his help. each step feels heavier than the next, and more than simply because of gravity. he's...exhausted. riding on the fumes of Yuri's own heightened state of mind has well passed, the both of them exhausted. as the weight of it starts to settle in, 'all that' starts...to feel less and less like the dream it was along the way.]

This...really is real. Isn't it...

[vibing]

The ghost? Yeah. That was real.

[ Yuri walks slowly with him, his eyes flicking to Blue as they reach his room ]

All the other shit? Real, too. I dunno want to tell you, Blue. This place, weird stuff's happening to us.

[firstroar]

[Blue's gaze is still ahead, taking note of the room. a bed. his bed? but not the one he'd known for centuries.

still his, though.]

And we go on. Even now. [he breathes out a soft note, moving again.] To wake up...in this place to another day.

How strange.

[vibing]

Yeah.

[ It is weird. Really weird, but Yuri doesn't stop to think about it often. He can't change anything, so why bother thinking about it? Maybe it's not the healthiest thing to do, but it's what he's been doing.

He helps Blue sit down on the bed, but doesn't move away yet. ]

Strange to think-- you know, I spent almost my entire life in Zaphias. I only left about a year ago, and now I might never see it again.

[firstroar]

[Blue exhales slowly, as sitting down is what finally saps away the remains of all that adrenaline and energy he'd been able to hold onto for so long. he can't even put up a fight to keep his eyes open, head tilting down as his hands fall away from Yuri's arm.]

In memories. And dreams... The place...all things go. [until they're found again, or...or maybe something different. something Irene knows, not them.]

[vibing]

[ Yuri watches him for a long moment. He looks so much younger, peaceful, sitting like this. ]

Yeah. At least we have that.

You rest, I'll make some food.

[ He hesitates just a moment longer, then steps out of Blue's room to leave him be. ]
