[Maybe he had been lonelier than he thought himself to be. He's spent so much energy shelving away his grief that he'd forgotten that others could still see it.]
Yeah. [He leans against the trunk, idly playing with the leftovers of his fish.] You mind if I come up here every now and then?
[I hope you enjoy an intrusion of space, Zelos, because he's turning around to stretch out his legs. He folds his arms behind his head, letting his eyes close.] Because I like the view up here.
[Maybe he does. He feels a little more peaceful like this at least. ...Maybe he was lonely too. Sometimes he forgets: even if he has to walk the paths of his responsibilities alone, that doesn't mean he has to be alone.]
...You're a funny guy.
[Settling down he lets his legs hang over the edge. Daring this world to do its worst to take him down. Leaning back on his hands he watches the leaves up above. Counts the insects he spots. Multiplies. Divides. Balances them against eachother in equations. If Guy wants to sleep or simply relax he can. He doesn't have to be anyone perfect or special or anything at all when it's just him and Zelos.]

[Crossing his arms he turns around again.]
Nevermind. I felt the sudden urge to no longer care.
[Did it have to be said?! No, he doesn't mind that much. But he doesn't think either of them are ready to talk about anything that real.]

That's fine. I'll be taking all your fish, then, since you don't need them.

...That's harsh. I thought what we have was special.
[Sounding like he's tearing up a bit. How could you Guy...he trusted you...!]
no subject
You actually put some time and effort into these. [A bit of honesty.] I can't help it if I like your good cooking.
no subject
It's not like that at all. Like I would do something like that. They just turned out that way.
[Dismissive handwaves. Him? Actually put in effort?? Never...]
It's good to see you cheered up though.
no subject
Yeah. [He leans against the trunk, idly playing with the leftovers of his fish.] You mind if I come up here every now and then?
no subject
[Rude?? He brushes his hair back over his shoulder. What can he say?]
I wouldn't mind seeing a face I can actually stand more often. You might as well.
[Guy's just helping him out, hm. It doesn't have to be anything more than that if he doesn't want it to be.]
