[ call or text Reim within! I was going to set up a voicemail inbox message but then I realized no one is ever going to hear it unless he’s unconscious or dead. it doesn’t matter if you call at 3am he’ll pick up. ]

...don't... don't carry this on you own. I just... need you-- with me. Together. We cannot do this on our own.

[ finally wraps his arm around her, clutching tightly at her shoulders and pulling her close, pressing his face into her hair and shaking ]
I'll do anything for you.
[ this also isn't really something he thinks she wants to hear right now but can't help himself ]

[It is not-- but she knows he is trying. She disentangles her arms and wraps them around him; holding him.]
...I know you will. [...] But that is why I worry about you too.
[But they've both been foolish here, so she cannot say they are not still incredibly well suited to one another. And she is no less enamored with him for these faults.]
From now on we must simply give much greater care to what we are willing to do and what prices we are willing to pay.

Hi it's Rupert do you have a few minutes
Hi it's Rupert do you have a few minutes
I lied to you a few times over the last few days and it feels weird not to set the record straight now that the game is over if that's okay
If you want to! I'd like to hear the truth, but if it was something small I'm not going to push you, either.
Let's see...
1. I said my parents are usually upset at me for being too honest
2. I told you I've never had to lie that much to anyone before
3. This is probably obvious but when I said I only hadn't told you I'm royalty because I thought you already knew that wasn't true
You can ask for clarification on any of those but I didn't want to type out long explanations on the specific reasons they were misleading

If you're not worried about it then we definitely don't have to make it a big deal
Yeah of course! Same to you
Hopefully the next one will be less about tricking each other
