He is nonetheless unconvinced of Mateos simple answer as he compares it to the rest of him. A tamed walk shouldn’t put so much pressure on a man that they needed to press on a wall and brood for a long chilling moment. Apathid wondered if the other was having what’s known as a mental breakdown. He’s seen humans do it for the past decade or so- it’s fascinating really.
“Well I’m sure you can do multiple things at the same time.” he alludes to something bigger than just walking in the middle of the night, alone, something under Mateo’s skin. “I’ve heard people walk around to lessen their burdens.... you just seem to collect more.” He smiles apathetically in a sense because he gets it- not everyone or everything has the capacity to unburden themselves so easily with a mere walk. But he won’t say more to it.
“Maybe I can join you?” he proposes, “if you want? I was kinda gonna lean on that wall and wallow on my shitty day-but you got here first and took my spot.”Apathid smiles a bit teasing his way through the thick atmosphere between them. “you wanna tell me whats going on in that head of yours?”
