D'ya ever just ,  like ...  consider what things would be like ,  if we ...   * Elliott ,  clearly a bit hesitant to press on ,  gave a small shrug while he messed with his fingers . *   I mean ,  / hypothetically /  ,  of course !  If we ,  I dunno ...  left the Games ,  and moved out together ?

            i  have  thought  of  the  prospect  before   ..    i  think  it  might  be  nice   .     i  could  not  participate  in  the  games  forever   ,    that  is  certain   .
            
            moving  out  somewhere  together  would  be  lovely   ,    that  is  what  i  mean  to  say   .

Oh - !  Je suis désolé ,  mon ami !  I did not hear you coming ...  Are you okay ?  I did not hurt you ,  did I ... ?  I will be more careful next time !

            Okay !  Again ,  pardon ,  I did not mean it ...   * A quiet sigh of relief left the young woman's lips ,  her shoulders slumping as the tension left them .  She would've felt ten times worse if she  / had /  hurt Bloodhound ,  so she was very glad that she didn't do so . *   I guess you could say our encounter was  / shocking /  ! ...  Get it ?   * Natalie gave a quiet giggle at her own joke ,  momentarily bringing her hand up to cover her mouth as she laughed . *   By the way ,  Natalie is fine !  You do not have to call me Wattson if you do not want to .

Ay ,  Houndie !  's just me .  Sorry if I'm interruptin' anything ,  but ,  ah ...  You alright ,  mate ?  You've been real quiet lately ,  'n' it's quite lonely without me best mate .   * Of course ,  this was a half-teasing remark .  While it would be nice to try and break Bloodhound out of their shell just a little bit more ,  he understood why they were so reserved lately . *   Y'know you can talk to ol' Fusey 'bout Talos ,  ay ?  I'm all ears ,  if ya need to get it off those strong shoulders a' yours ...

            Seeing any part of Bloodhound almost felt illegal ,  like it was an absolutely forbidden sight ,  even with something as small and meaningless as seeing their hair .  It wasn't as if he could see their eyes or their face right now ,  but it was simply the act of seeing their bright ginger locks that  / almost /  compelled him to look away out of respect ,  although he did not .  Besides ,  he was certain that if it really were that important ,  they wouldn't even be showing their hair ,  and  ---  oh ,  was that a different color strand of hair ?   
            
            " I already told ya ,  I'll stay as long as ya wish .  Anything for me best mate , "   he responded ,  his smile widening just a hair more .  As if to make it a bit more concrete that he had every intention to stay with them ,  Walter fell backwards onto the bed where he sat ,  placing his flesh arm beneath his head to prop it up a bit more as the mechanical one came up to rest upon his stomach .   " I don't do a whole lotta relaxin' in my room either ,  but when I do it's really just me messin' around with that old guitar a' mine .  We can do whatever ya want . "

            “     just   ..    for  the  day   ,    perhaps   ?     if  you  would  not  mind   ,    of  course   .    i  feel  a  bit  lonely  tonight   ..     ”     their  fingers  mess  with  each  other   ,    feeling  nervous  about  being  denied   ,     ruining  their  friendship   .     “     ..     please   ?     ”     they  add  on   ,     gaze  slowly  rising  to  look  at  their  friend   .
            
            “     i  don't  have  many  things  to  do  in  my  room   ..     i  do  not  spend  much  time  here   .     ”     they  murmur   ,     legs  silently  kicking  against  their  bed   .    long  ginger  hair  falls  against  their  back  as  they  take  it  out  of  the  ponytail  it  lay  in    ,     though  one  black  strand  also  lie  within  their  hair   .    one  could  only  guess  who's  it  was   ..      “      even  those  who  create  chaos  must  desire  peace  eventually   ..    i  am  glad  to  be  a  source  of  calm  for  you   ,    though   .     ”
            
            they  feel  the  light  ache  in  their  lungs  as  they  breathe   ,    no  matter  how  much  their  respirator  may  help  them   .     it  was  only  amplified  by  the  urge  to  cry  they  had  felt  moments  ago   ,     but  they're  used  to  the  pain  by  now   ..    it  had  been  years   ,    it  was  almost  normal   .    as  sad  as  that  may  be   .

            Walter moved to sit upright once more upon hearing their quiet chuckle ,  a small smile beginning to curl up at the corners of his own lips .  It was always so nice to make them laugh ,  it truly was ,  especially since they've been having such a rough time lately and have been blaming themself for a lot of things that aren't their fault .  Knowing he could bring them peace for even a few minutes during these strenuous times was enough of an accomplishment in his eyes  ( / eye / )  ,  and he would continue to try and make light of whatever he could just to elicit that admittedly-quite-lovely ,  GENUINE laugh of theirs out .  So ,  feeling quite triumphant ,  the man gave a short-lived yet joyful laugh ,  loosening his grip on their hand .   " Knew it was only a matter of time 'til ya started to laugh again !  Quite nice to hear ya start to feel better . "   
            
            It sounded like they wanted to say something ,  beginning with his name yet trailing off just a mere second after it slipped past their lips .  This had piqued the older man's interest ,  giving them time in silence to try and work out what they wanted to say ,  and yet ...  it never came .  He didn't push the subject further ,  not wanting to risk making them uncomfortable .  Hell ,  he didn't even mention it ,  allowing the topic to seemingly shift .  Walter couldn't help but to snicker a little bit at their words ,  bringing his free hand up once again just so he could give them a reassuring pat on the shoulder .   " Feel  / pressured /  to ?  Yeah ,  nah ,  it's hard to pressure this old dog into doin' somethin ,  don't you worry !  I'll stay with ya as long as ya need me to ,  'kay ?  An hour ,  two hours ,  a day  ---  I don't mind !  I like spending time with ya meself .  It's ...  refreshing ,  stayin' away from the chaos for a while .  Reckon that's quite ironic comin' from a man that likes stirrin' up a little mayhem ,  ay ? "
