Ah. Good. [He likes Iwatooshi... DEPENDABLE LAD. Swords are good. Karma could use someone like that, he thinks; someone dependable and sturdy and kind.]
Children do tend to act out when they don't get what they need growing up. [He's making assumptions but they are correct.] Even if he's resilient, I'm glad that he has support.
[REGRET TO INFORM YOU THAT IS THE STATE OF CATHOLICISM. He also looks down at the notebook when Aventurine asks the question, though, clearing his throat gently.]
Ah... Nothing too interesting. I was in the habit of writing about my day for Nadia, back home... There are a lot of things about even a place like this that she'd be interested to see, so I thought I'd do the same here.
[Just write extremely heavily edited versions of his day!]
Of course. It wouldn't do to worry her. [SHE'D BE MORE THAN WORRIED. At the question, he glances back over toward Aventurine, watching with a sort of idleness as he starts to swing.]
She does, yes. I've been told we have similar faces, and she likes our hair to match.
[It's the only reason he keeps it long, which is hilarious. Also because they live shrouded in a blanket of permanent fog memshare, he can get a little flash of a young and frail girl who does look strikingly like him, smiling up at him from a sickbed.]
[ Oh, he is never going to get used to these memories cropping up out of the fog.
But he does study her with a curious gaze when she appears, taking in her features before looking back to Lucas, as if comparing the two of them. He slows his swinging, dragging his shoe against the dirt to hinder the momentum. ]
The resemblance is striking... She's got a kind smile.
His gaze is just lost out into the fog for a little while, long after the figment of his sister has faded back into nothing.]
She would be delighted to hear that. [That they look the same. He's more delighted to hear the very apt remark on the kindness of her smile, though. The heel of his boot digs into the ground a little, the gesture also idle.]
She's got a kind soul and a tender heart. [Makes sense to him that her smile would follow suit.] Nadia is one of the sweetest people anyone could meet.
There's a little bit of hesitation, but he inclines his head gently. Even if tensions didn't die down, which he doesn't expect them to, he's grateful for Aventurine saying so. It won't stop him from helping as best he's able, regardless.]
...Thank you. I'll be of more use in the coming days.

Iwatooshi would be my best bet.
[ There seemed to be some hero worshipping there... Sometimes kids bond with the golden retrievers of this world. ]
He's resilient, though. Even if he can a bit much...

Aventurine hums his agreement, then his gaze drops down to the notebook Lucas has been holding. ]
Writing anything interesting?

Leaving out much of the events of yesterday, I hope.
[ He kicks off from the ground to start swinging a bit. ]
Does your sister look like you?

I can see why you'd go to any length to keep her safe.
[ His listless swinging comes to a stop, and he leans his head against the chain of the swing as he watches Lucas. ]
... I just wanted to check on you. If you're adjusting okay.

Sometimes your sister dies before you can truly be insane about her, it's fine. There's an AU out there somewhere where it happened.]
I would... [Go to any length. UNFORTUNATELY!! As Aventurine stops swinging, Lucas pushes himself back a little by his boot heel before glancing over.]
...Thank you. I apologize if I've worried you... It seems I've been the source of concern for far too many already.
no subject
Aventurine pushes himself to a stand, regarding Lucas with a small smile. ]
You and everyone else. Tensions should die down soon enough, and we'll get back on track trying to figure a way out of here.
[ He says this and then in the next few days the entire gy tries to tpk itself. ]
I'll leave you to get back to it.
