[Four keeps standing there in silence anyway, refusing to separate when he can sense that Aether is feeling much more than he's letting on. After a few seconds, he rests his head against Aether's shoulder. He doesn't know what he can say, or if there is anything to say, but if simply being grounding can be a comfort, he wants to offer that.]
Thank you for telling me about her. It's good you have people so important to you.
[He smiles to himself, then rests his head against Four's.
Eventually, his gaze falls back on the abandoned chocolate, but he thinks to himself that it can wait. For now, he just wants to stay close to the other even if only for a little longer.]

Thank you for hearing me out... I'm not good at talking about myself or my problems, but... being with you is always so soothing to me.
[He finds so much comfort in the other's presence.]

If I can at least do that much for you... then I'm happy.
