[ internally, eiden is screaming. like really screaming, just. he's so stressed. but its fine. he just packs that away for now and instead lifts his fingers up to make sure there are no tears. no tears allowed, you hear me? ]

We'll support each other. Don't worry.

[ he's going to let go, but just a little, just enough so he can't stop squishing his jacket eggs. his jeggs. ]

... I don't know what I'm going to do with these or where I'm going to put them, but if they have to spend the night with us, then it should be somewhere relatively safe. Wanna go exploring with me?
