It helps when the people I speak to are as nice as you.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Beams.] Thanks.

[slayerofgiants]

You are very welcome.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[But will stop leaning on you some now, seeming a lot better.]

[slayerofgiants]

[he will pat your shoulder and smile then!]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

So how are you liking the tea shop?

[slayerofgiants]

I really enjoy it. A lot of interesting people come in for tea. And I like helping Sion and Edward maintain it.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Edward..]

...how has Edward been doing?

[slayerofgiants]

He is doing fairly well, I think.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

So you think so too?

[Sigh of relief.] Well, that's a bit more reassuring.

[slayerofgiants]

I worry about him as well. But he assures me he is fine every time I ask him.

[...which is very often.]

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

...he has to assure you?

[Oh, that's worrying.]

[slayerofgiants]

Well I am a natural born worry wart, is all!

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

...why do you usually ask?

[slayerofgiants]

Just to make sure. Even if there is not anything to actually worry about.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

...does he look upset or sad when you do?

[slayerofgiants]

[OH GOD AM I WORRYING YOU WHY DO I SAY THINGS]

Hm? No! As I said, it is just me!

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

[Oh, you're freaking out, aren't you?]

[Hand on his shoulder.] It might not be, is the problem.

I'm not very good at telling what people are feeling under the surface. And it means I miss things when I don't want too. And...I know Edward doesn't always share his problems.

[slayerofgiants]

[Yes but I am really trying not to!]

Ah...yes. I am the same way. That is why I'm always asking.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

Does that work?

[slayerofgiants]

...Sometimes.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

I'll have to try it.

[slayerofgiants]

Do let me know how that works for you.

[ghostofthesparklelizards]

Will do! Maybe it'll have more success then just trying to watch people.

[slayerofgiants]

Perhaps. Though watching people can be very handy as well.
