[ cinnabar doesn't know he knows the others well!! they're barely on top of their own social life... ]
...
[ they were one of those few until just barely before they arrived here, but they won't bring up their woes again. They curl their knees up into their chest, resting their chin on them. ]
... That's not it. I... Because you were there, it was worth it. You make it easier just by being with me, in this place... I'm sure I'm not the only one who thinks that. [ a pause; it's a little embarrassing to admit it, but they're feeling pretty numb tonight, luckily. ] However she may have ended, I'm sure being your partner made her happy.
he knows cinnabar is trying hard right now, and he appreciates it, but he's admittedly having difficulty mustering up what the proper response should be to make them happy.]
