[Those who know Jean might notice the shadows under his eyes and the fact that he doesn't look...particularly emotive about anything right now. Those who don't know Jean, hi.]

When I decided to use the Dream Docks, I thought I was only going to be there for a week. I didn't expect it to last over a month. But the city's still standing, so I guess I didn't miss much.

Still fucking weird as ever, though.

Uhm, Mikasa... [And any confidence he had is gone. He's nervous and regretful, and he has no idea how to make it up.] Sorry. I just wanted to see what was happening on our world.

Are you--

Can we--

Can I come over? I get it if you don't want me to.

[Because it feels weird not asking after just disappearing like that.]

I know I didn't talk to you that much for a while. How've you been? Just going to say this once and then move on. Sorry for the way I've acted...and everything. I'm surprised you haven't punched me in the face.

My absence was irresponsible, and seeing as you're running for Guardian, this might be a shit time to ask. But I want to know whether or not it's possible to have my job back.

[He doesn't fight this time. He's drained, but that doesn't mean he's any better off. Neither of them are. He doesn't trust himself to speak just yet, so he sits there, staring at the floor.]

[ he sits as well, leaning forward with his arm across his knees and his chin on his arm. he stayed quiet, not sure what to even say to the other ]

...Sorry I'm a shitty friend.

I never said you were a shitty friend, Jean... You know you aren't.

You can't control what happened.

You don't need to try to make me feel better.

[He forces himself to stand up. He holds out a hand for Marco to take.]

Let's go.

I'm not, I'm--

[ he blinks, looking up at him ] Where are we going?

[ he asks but he takes his hand anyway and stands ]

Uh. I have no idea. [He lets his hand go and looks around.]

Somewhere that isn't the wall.

Oh.

I was going to go make some tea earlier... Do you want some? [ small talk is not their forte omg ]

Sure...tea's always good. [shrug. no it's not.]

If you're sure... I'm glad you're back though. We all missed you.

...Yeah, no need to make it corny.

[He scoffs, but there's a flicker of pain.]

...Sorry. [ he's just as bad off as he is. but he does turn, deciding to leave before him ]

I'm just saying. [He doesn't have to speak what goes unspoken. That and Jean's an awkward asshole. He shoves his hands in his pockets and walks after him.]

[ he feels awkward and has to finally say something ] Are you sure you're okay? I can leave, if you want me to.

...I don't want you to leave. [Which is the truth.]

I don't consider myself special or any of that bullshit. But it's hell without you. It's hell with you, but you know, it's more...tolerable or whatever.

More tolerable with me than without me? [ he can't help but smile a little ] I'm glad we feel the same way.

...You just wanted to hear me say it, didn't you?

[He makes a show of frowning and rolling his eyes, then smirking because that's more comfortable than smiling.]

Possibly. What of it?
