[ sweet ashlyn. quiet company is fine, actually - he notices when he has company, and after a long moment, he exhales outwards, eyes focused on the flame ahead for one last, lingering moment before he turns. his usual exuberance and sunshine is not present, but he still has a little smile for her, soft and a little relieved. ]

... I stayed in the cabin last night, and... Aventurine was with us. We - Karlach tried to break the door down, and couldn't, and... no matter how much any of us tried, we couldn't seem to get out. I don't even remember falling asleep.
