[ Unseen, that draws a tiny smile out of Sinclair. He can appreciate that]
Yeah. It's pretty stupid looking back.
[ The town he had grown up in had been a soft place that he used to think was full of warmth outside of school. But even then, not a single one of his father's friends had stepped up to help after the murders.
It seems reasonable. I've made money I don't have desire to use, and you're in need of it.
( To Mithrun, kindness suggests going out of your way - and he doesn't think he is. It would be very easy to give money to someone. So he is.
That Emil is working a clerk job at a startup and will have to rely on them to get a degree tells him that whatever his situation, it's probably pretty not great. )
I could cover a bachelor's and a graduate degree. But if you need more, then let me know.
[ Now he's a little worried. Offering that much money online to someone who is still technically a stranger is asking to be taken advantage of! Even he knows that. ]
Thank you. But I'd like to try to do this on my own, and learn to stand with my own two feet. I don't want to keep relying on people and burdening them.
[ It's tempting though, isn't it? To reach out and be helped, without having to do a thing on his own. But it's the kind of selfishness that hurts people and he doesn't want to do that.]
Isn't it up to the person who's helping you to decide whether you're a burden or not?
( Emil wouldn't be a burden on him, and probably wouldn't be to to anyone choosing to help him out. But that's not for Mithrun to convince him of; Emil will learn it himself.
Or die from his anxiety. Whichever comes first. )
That's fine, though. For the time being, I'm staying put. So you can contact me if you want something.
[The enthusiasm cannot be seen but the sparkles are there]
Yeah. I've never experienced anything like it. It was so cool, looking down at the root town from above. You can tell the developers put a lot of thought into how the world came together.

It said a lot.

Me too. If you just want to talk. Or something. It was good to meet someone who remembers Beatrice.
[ And not like, you know, a random stranger fawning over her murderer, but yes.
And +1 friend request. Does Mithrun accept? ]
no subject
Sure.
We can do runs together, too.
( He's better at action-oriented stuff, so that's said with positive intent from him. )
