[ Hopefully everyone had fun on the Arco Lunar! The morning after the boat departs from the docks, a letter arrives to your mailbox: ]
Hello, intrepid adventurer!
I am excited to have you along for a group excursion to the mysterious new island! In two days' time, let us gather in the town square and set off from there! Please be prepared to stay the night. It will be so fulfilling and memorable for everyone to spend a night on an adventure together!
If you have any questions or concerns, please come find me at my flower shop in town or at the forest farm where I live!
Sincerely,
Oriphi
[ If she accidentally delivered it to a few wrong mailboxes, then... Oops!
On the promised day, once everyone (and likely a few surprise tag-alongs) has gathered or been gathered, Ori distributes little paper bags of snacks to everyone. Inside are cookies, oat snacks, and a freshly-picked apple from her and M-21's orchard. Do with them as you please... Just don't let her catch you throwing it into the sea or something. 🥺 ]
Alright. I think we should head out, then! Thanks for coming along, everyone! I hope it'll be a great time. Oh, and please don't forget to drink plenty of water and use this incredible ointment I discovered on this island! It's called "sunscreen!" Tieflings don't really get sunburnt, but you should use it!
[ And with that our intrepid adventurers set off to the mysterious, dangerous, unknowable... resort island! ]

[ He very much doubts that Gaku is into it due to his status as an idol. ]
no subject
[ Ellis is right in thinking that, because that makes him immediately decide against convincing him. ]
I just wanted to cuddle.
[ And he figured Ellis would sit on his lap sideways, so it would have worked out... ]
no subject
"Maybe not in public, especially in the bath. Shouldn't this be fine for now?"
no subject
Yeah, this works. [ He pauses. ] Do you always feel like this?
no subject
"Feel like what?"
[ There's a sense of uneasiness despite Ellis looking like his usual self. ]
no subject
[ His expression shifts into something a little more serious, especially as that unease from Ellis settles in. ]
You know what I'm talking about. I can feel it.
no subject
Guess who isn't aware that the air wasn't the only thing that was open in this bath. This guy. So, no. Ellis doesn't know what Gaku is talking about.
??? ]
no subject
[ He's never felt so unnervingly empty, and it's an incredibly disconcerting feeling. ]
no subject
Well.
Thanks, he's going to leave the bath now— ]
no subject
I don't like it if you try to leave when I feel like I need to talk to you about something important.
no subject
"Coping mechanism. Can't help it."
[ Man, is this how people felt when Ellis told them he could read minds?? No wonder Mishka wanted to kill him. ]
no subject
...But if it's a coping mechanism, could you try to start letting go of it?
[ Honestly, Ellis needs a therapist more than anything but who would even be equipped for all of that? ]
no subject
That's how Ellis feels right now, and with what Gaku says, the empty void-like feeling grows stronger, threatening to swallow up the remainder of the calm peace he had just before. ]
no subject
...
[ He can go on and on about how it would help Ellis, but clearly that won't do anything. Frustration swells up within him, and most certainly in Ellis, but he doesn't let it out.
Instead, Gaku drops his wrist. ]
Forget I brought it up.

If you have something you wanna say to me, just say it. Keeping it in doesn't do any good for either of us.

[ Sure, he can pretend to fit in. He looks like a person, acts like a person, reacts like a person... as if he's a real person. He can do things that real people can do. Real people encourage him to think he's real, because he's tangible. However, he doesn't think the empty void-like feeling will ever truly go away, because what is there to feel when he's constantly reminded of who he is every time he looks in the mirror? Sure, he won't disappear now at any time due to the wish he's made and he's always been an unwanted existence from the moment he was made. He never feels lonely, because being on his own is a natural state of being for him, but sometimes he can't help but to think-- ]

Everything is back to normal. The void has receded, the frustration gone as if vacuumed, and anger popped like it was nothing. Light returns to his eyes. ]
"I was thinking of some things that happened before I came here, so my thoughts wandered."
no subject
He doesn't like that. His blood runs cold, heart skipping a beat before he lets out a long, slow breath. It feels like his stomach has dropped to his feet, and all Gaku can do for a long moment is stand there in a still silence.
What can he even do to help Ellis? He has no powers, he has no frame of reference for any of the things he's been through, and he can barely wrap his head around half of the things he's been told. On paper, he's absolutely useless in the face of helping someone like Ellis through all of this.
But he doesn't take that as a definitive answer. Rather, it's a challenge that he's willing to step up for, even if it means he can't fix everything all at once. Some things take time, and he at least knows now some of what he's working with.
So, Gaku pulls Ellis into a hug, potential inappropriateness of the gesture be damned. ]
no subject
He slowly breathes out and turns around to hug Gaku back. No more void. No more frozen tundra. Just peace, relaxation, and warmth. ]
no subject
Tell me about these things when it happens. I might not get it or fully understand, but I don’t want you keeping things locked up. Let me be there for you.
[ His words are painfully sincere, something Ellis can pick up on by the rush of intense affection directed right at him coming from Gaku. ]

[ He cups Ellis' face in his hands for a moment, lightly patting his cheeks before letting go. ]
I wanna know these things. You might get mad at how I react, or I might be frustrated with you... but I prefer that over not knowing at all.
no subject
"I think what makes it hard for me is that my normal is very different from yours."
[ So that spacing out thing with absolute zero? Normal. Resisting feeling possessed by his survival instinct? Normal. ]
"But I'll try to keep telling you those things too, even if I find them mundane."
[ "Mundane", he says... ]
