You to make me hang on and to keep trying.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

How do I do that?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Don't let me humor him, even if it's easier.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

Alright. I can do that.

[sits in a chair and pulls Syaoran into his lap. so he can hug from behind and rest his head on Syaoran's shoulder]

[reaches up and grabs Red's arms -- closest thing to a hug back he can do in this position]









...I wanted to tell you that I was sorry.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Sorry?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

I cause trouble. I make things difficult.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Just like we all do.

It's okay. We all cause troubles.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

You have enough worries. You shouldn't have to carry more.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

I caused some of these worries.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

How is that? Do you mean about Claude again?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

And things in general.

Syaoran, don't worry too much about upsetting me, okay?

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

[:|]


Of course I worry. You're already carrying a lot. I can't add to that.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

I'll be okay no matter what happens. In the end, anyway.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

...

[i disbelieve :')]

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

Things just get hard sometimes.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

...





And if Claude dies and does not come back? Or becomes trapped in the Pillar? Or "invites" another Judge inside?

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

...I'll still have you. Even if it hurts.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

...

[leans into]

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

I can't say I'd be okay. But I'd still. Have people.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

...I know. It's Claude who is most important.

[sillyrabitricks.insanejournal.com]

It's not a matter of most important. Just important in different ways.

[time_andagain.insanejournal.com]

You'll never be what Claude is to me and he'll never be what you are. One's not better than the other. Don't go telling yourself you're second place.
