[thinks about how i looked at the hermes one time and immediately went to anna like WHY IS SIDON FRENCH
she allows the nuzzling with the most put-upon look. but she softens almost immediately when he says what he does - the people she has here are getting better about telling her that they love her, but it's never as easy and simple as it is with sidon.]
... I care about you too, Sidon. [she says, quietly. because that is true! that much is true.]
I'll endeavor to send more messages. I can never tell when they reach you... I send them Mondays, most times.
Oh—we received them yesterday! [ which is tuesday help ] And around then the week before.
[ but he is truly always pushing the limits of what throne will put up with. still, he's dead and has no fear. he only has one day to shower people in affection week bass boosted affection, so he is being a cuddly dogfish. ]
...I know, and you're very dear to me for it. [ hearing affirmation back is nice, and—she has a very different approach to emotion than he does, but it doesn't feel any less sincere. he really believes her when she says it. ] I hope you're able to tell the others that you care for them, too.
[ SENDING STUFF BEFORE DIEDAY AND HOPING IT GETS THERE... this is fine. ]
Hardship does bring us all closer together—it's... something of a silver lining! [ this all sucks so bad, being an optimist in this economy is so hard ] Though I don't think there's really a bad time for confessions of the heart. [ he means this platonically but ] I'm glad you're putting them out there.
... I think that maybe you are not wrong. [that she has wanted to share them. it's just now that she's been able to do it, with all the people she's found here.]

[help. okay. well i guess i DO ALL MY MAIL ON MONDAYS THEN]
We get yours Fridays, so far. [she rests her head against him for now, easing into the cuddles. as for the last bit, she huffs.]
... I've been doing my best. It turns out there isn't much that coaxes confessions like mortal peril.

I doubt I helped very much...!
[ it is true that being open is easier if someone else cracks the floodgates first, and that is almost always him, but. ]
