[ she's quiet for a moment, but she appreciates the comforting gesture. she'll open her palm so robin can see the lil guy in her hands. she smiles, faintly. ]
Yes. He made it for me Thursday. I made him a Wayfinder in return.
[ or at least, she tried. (it wasn't very good. a literal you tried star) ]
[ yeah, the amount of tattoos she's gaining because her castmates is growing. their names are there to be seen. it doesn't need to be said. ]
More than failing them... I am sorry I couldn't learn more about them. I am sorry I couldn't understand them more, and I am sorry there is no comfort I can give other than...
[ making sure they don't kill more outside their own power and will.
it's not quite the same as failing to her, as much as she continues to want to be able to do more. ]

Yes. He made it for me Thursday. I made him a Wayfinder in return.

...I promised I'd help him however I could.

no subject
[ not exactly a yes, or a no. ]

[ they'd spoken about regrets just yesterday. how many more might there be for robin, this evening. ]

I'm sorry you have to feel that way. I wish we were anywhere else.
[ that they had more time. ]
...Wherever their hearts have gone [ aventurine and death ], I hope they're at peace. And that your songs will be able to reach them.

I am sorry any of us have to feel this way. If there is peace where they have gone, that would be a small measure of comfort.
[ for them and anyone who cares for them. ]
