Not 'even still'. You try and hold yourself to something impossible and then you'll never reach it, you know?

[He understands Gon's feelings enough to give him a pass, usually.. but blaming himself for trauma Toki has from before they even met is a bit much.]

I'm happy having you here just the way you are, too.

[betheman]

[He is quiet. Very quiet.

Mostly because he knows Yuuya is right but is in that awkward sort of position where even he can't bring himself to say 'yeahhhhh'.

So instead his brows just sort of furrow and un-furrow like he wants to say something, but has no idea what. Eventually he just says...]

...I... ...am glad for that. ..That you are happy with how I am.

[...That means a lot to him, after all. Especially now.]

[hippocarnival]

[It's not getting through, is it. Yuya's shoulders sink and his gaze drifts down to the ground.] You're my best friend, after all.

[And despite what happened. He knows how much good there is in Gongenzaka past his condition.]

[betheman]

[It never seems to, not really. Or at least it doesn't seem to sink in the way Yuuya would want it to, the way anyone would want it to. And never right away- Gongenzaka stops walking for a moment to look at his friend, eyes watering just a touch.] I...

...Naturally, you are my best friend too, you know..! ...I...

[....] ...I, the man Gongenzaka, am...trying. ...To believe your words as more than just your words...this, I swear.

...I am.

[hippocarnival]

Right. [Yuya pulls up a smile, looking at Gongenzaka briefly before fixing his attention back ahead. He always wishes he could do more to help Gongenzaka, to get through to him, but... it always comes back around to this. He's just not quite enough.

It makes it chest tight, but Yuya's good at not letting that escape onto his face by now. He doesn't want to add to Gon's guilt any more than he already has.] So what are you going to eat?

[betheman]

Mnh? For breakfast? [He asks, only somewhat pulling back from the gloomy mood he's sunk farther back into. Food is a good way to get him back to spirits in the morning however- a rush of energy is just what he needs to get away from it all, so...]

...Some breakfast sausage, I think.

[hippocarnival]

Not just a plate of breakfast sausage, right? Add some bacon to it too!

[betheman]

Mnh!! N-Naturally, bacon will also be included..! Eggs, as well! ...Auh...

[He frowns.] ...Some grains are necessary...

[Oi oi...]

[hippocarnival]

[Gon is in no position to talk about Yuya's eating habits.

Yuya looks amused, giving him a quick nudge.] Come on, faster we get there the faster we get to eat!

[And then he dashes off, though at least at a jog and not a full out run. It's a hallway after all.]

end here?

[betheman]

AUH-!!

Y- Yes!

[TO BREAKFAST THEY GO!]
