Or even if he doesn't have the right answer, maybe he knows in his heart that he can do something. All answers aren't set in stone, even if they seem like they might be. The point of a quest is a journey, not the end.
[ he loves quest stories even now, he tries to smile. he does reach a hand out this time. ]
Keep your fingers crossed and believe in him as much as I believe in both of you. [ It's said sincerely. ] And it's okay to be worried or upset about it.
[ he's not sorry to lean back into kiss him again... But stops mid motion. He knows Gingham worries and after everything he just said (and maybe influenced from his own vision watching,) he decides this is better instead: ]
You matter and - like - you can't panic or be embarrassing or - I don't know, anything else you might think to turn me away.
I love you. Like a lot. In case you forgot or needed to hear it.
[ GOD. WHY IS HE SO CUTE? There are reasons why Phoenix is a cheater in life and it's that he can hear everyone else's embarrassing thoughts and they can't hear his and right now it really is just: I love him. He's so adorable. I want him to be happy I want to make him happy, I you know ridiculous teenage thoughts. ]
[ so he kisses him again and that's the end of this, kissing is easier than thinking. ]

Re: day 238 - evening/late night
...Thanks. Seriously. I'm freaking out marginally less now.
Re: day 238 - evening/late night
You don't have anything to thank me for. And you can freak out at me anytime, I won't think you're crazy. Promise.
Re: day 238 - evening/late night
Have I told you recently that you're the best?
Re: day 238 - evening/late night
You might have, but I'll never deny hearing it. Besides. You deserve the best.
