[powerisyours]

Similar to how Joe is for you, right?

[pussyfortono]

Somewhat, yes.

[powerisyours]

I'm happy you were able to find him.

[pussyfortono]

I still have the calligraphy painting he gave me.

[powerisyours]

Then it's a good memory you'll have of him for a long time.

[pussyfortono]

Ah, it is.

[ but he's still sad ]

[powerisyours]

[ give me your sads, bro. i am here for you and still petting through your hair ]

Do what you need to do.

[pussyfortono]

[ he rubs his cheek against your chest, his arm sliding over your stomach as he pulls you closer ]

[powerisyours]

[ he'll just quietly pet and cuddle ]

[pussyfortono]

[ he finally says it though. ]

People leave.

[powerisyours]

Mm, they do.

[pussyfortono]

And sometimes they do not come back.

[powerisyours]

Also true.

[pussyfortono]

[ & that is the crux of what is bothering him ]

[powerisyours]

[ he can tell. he's just going to hold onto you a little tighter ]

[pussyfortono]

I do not want them to leave, but that is something I cannot control.

[powerisyours]

None of us can control it. But we can wish them the best for their new start.

[pussyfortono]

Ah

[powerisyours]

Think of it as a beginning, not an end.

[pussyfortono]

I will try.

[powerisyours]

[ have a kiss to the top of your head, bro ]

I'm here if you need me to be, okay? Take some Takeru-time. Takeru-time lasts until Takeru says it's over.

[pussyfortono]

Eh?

[powerisyours]

Take it for what it is.

[pussyfortono]

I am not a child, Jiu Wu.

[powerisyours]

You don't have to be a child to take personal time, Takeru.
