[ help, her "growth spurt" that isn't actually but-- y'know what yeah, she is taller now. as brief as the hug is, her wings at her waist unwrap to quickly hug him with. he too gets a wing hug. ]
I'll have to give it my all and keep practicing, but... I'm glad, we can talk with them. Did you want to read Buzen's letter? He seemed, worried that you don't remember him.. [ Still. ]
[ SHE'S 5'1 ???? she should've been from the start but i misunderstood the heights and assumed she was slightly shorter than that. IT'S OKAY HE CAN STILL CARRY HER(?) if he can ]
[IM LOSING MY MIND AT THIS AND ALSO AT THIS LETTER HELP,
So is Itsuki, actually? He reads the letter once, twice, then carefully hands it back to Meteion, hand shaking just a little.]
...He really has been watching over us.
[his voice is a little shaky, a precursor to the emotions he's about to show. because he's so very glad, and also sad, and guilty, and frustrated... but most importantly, he's happy that he gets to feel these emotions at all. he puts a hand to his face.... damb he's been crying a lot today and yet, the tears just keep coming?]
[ She gently takes the letter but, she seems more focused on his reaction. At the tremble in his voice, and the way he puts a hand to his face--
well, she'll press up onto the tippy-toes of her bird peets. she'll bring her hands up to cup Itsuki's face, c'mere dad. she lets their foreheads bump together as both wings comfortingly wrap around him. ]
He has... He always has been, Suki-chan. [ it's okay, don't cryyyy. she's here with you! ]
[ wings snug gently around him, just returning the hug. though she keeps her hands on his face to wipe at it on the chance there are any tears. don't cry, sssh. ]
He probably just.. wanted to remind you, himself. [ a light pat to his cheek. ] Don't do that, Suki-chan! No kicking, okay?

He can, later. For now, he'll lean on her.]

He sniffles, weh]
...Okay. [he can't be annoyed at Buzen when he's so overwhelmingly happy] I just want to see him again.
no subject
[ she wants to see all their friends they've lost, Buzen more importantly but. ]
It's okay... there's more hope, in seeing them again. We'll see them soon.
no subject
[he'll turn his head a little to press his face against one of her hands,]
We've worked so hard and stuck it out for so long... It feels like it's all finally changing for the better.
