for a brief moment he wonders if it’s even worth it —— the climb , the potential frostbite , the stupid slimes he has to meticulously avoid : it’s annoying , scaling the mountain to get to their campsite is annoying / but still , he does it every single time , without fail , when ayato gives him the opportunity to take the day off . ( 𝐡𝐞’𝐬 𝐚 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐲 , 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐲 , 𝐛𝐮𝐬𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐧 . ) ❛ albedo , ❜ the regret dissipates as soon as it’d enveloped his being , as soon as he sees them & remembers why he’s even here —— the flowers in his grasp are a little worse for wear ( 𝐡𝐞 𝐡𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐥𝐢𝐦𝐛 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐥𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 . ) & he feels guilty for not keeping them in perfect condition : but he forgets about the plants once he makes the final step , once he’s close enough to make out the shape of their person . ( he’s like a puppy , runs to them like his life depends on it / almost slips completely off the edge —— 𝐬𝐭𝐮𝐩𝐢𝐝 𝐢𝐜𝐞 —— scrambles to regain his footing . ) ❛ hey , hey : i missed you , ❜ grin is wide as ever & he takes the other’s hands into his gloved palms , if only for a second / drops the cecilias . ❛ i hope you missed me too . ❜
