I don't know. Sometimes that's just... how it is. You lose yourself. [He's maybe the worst person to be talking about this to.]

[red_song]

[Lose yourself? Proto frowns. And to comfort himself he brings his legs up against his chest and holds them.]

I don't want to be lost.

[swordofzero]

[He is just making this worse. He can tell. He sits still, looking at his hands.]

I don't think you will be.

[red_song]

[Perhaps not worse. Perhaps he was just telling Proto things he didn't know.]

If I lose myself, will you help me find myself?

[swordofzero]

Of course. I will always help you.

[He can't promise to be successful. But Blues is his friend, so of course he would help.]

[red_song]

[Oh if only he could come up with that name for Suzaku too. He needs so many words he doesn't have.]

Thank you, Suzaku. I believe you.

[swordofzero]

[He just nods, falling silent again.

He really never knows how to react to Blues' friendship.]

[red_song]

[He doesn't need to react, just watch this movie with his friend.]

wrap?

[swordofzero]

[That he does, watching silently as the movie plays.]
