(Compared to some of the other things they've experienced.)
Mhm, if anyone was going to rescue me from a high place, I would want Revali... but still, you must be tired. You've all been working quite hard on the other side.
We have a lot of catching up to do. Despite all that's been done, we aren't finished yet.
(There is still, unfortunately, a bomb to discuss.)
But it isn't often we have time to rest and it's been a long time since many of us have spoken with each other... a little time for ourselves is the least we can allow.
(While being mindful of their time, of course but he feels like that doesnt need to be said.)
(He reaches out to pat Kim on the head-- and stops short because he knows how he feels. It's fine. He pulls his hand back, tucking it into his sleeve,)
You're our guests for the evening. For now, leave things to us.

It sounded like plenty of hard work has been happening on both sides, however.
no subject
... And relaying it to all of you, of course.
(Those letter censors!!)
Things are easier when we're able to speak more freely on this side.

This week, your services are not needed!
There are no bodies to search for or to examine. Can you imagine?
no subject
[There's a mildly astonished look on his face, like this fact is only sinking in now.]
no subject
(Don't look so surprised?!)
no subject
But, all right. I see your point. It looks like I can take the rest of the day off.

(The dead,)
It's good to have a purpose again.
no subject
[A little irony in his tone.]
no subject
Ah, but I have one request.
no subject
What is it?
no subject
(Pointing to his own eyes for a second here.)
And your glasses fixed that.
no subject
... Why do you ask?
no subject
I want to see your glasses!
no subject
What, like... to try them on? For someone who doesn't need them, it would just be like looking through a fishbowl.
no subject
(And he puts both hands on his waist and holds his head up high,)
I want someone else to see.
no subject
He squints.]
You want to put my glasses on someone else...? Why? And who?
no subject
It's hard for them to read and when I'm close, they only see my color.
(Who would have thought that conversation 7 weeks ago would be relevant now wow.)
And they don't want anyone to know what's wrong after so long.
(So their identity is... a secret?)
no subject
[He thinks about that, his brow furrowed. Seriously, how is it that this is coming up again like this?]
Okay... I'm not unsympathetic to that.
But I can't just lend you my glasses. I'm completely blind without them, and if anything happened to them...
no subject
And if they know, then they know how they can be better.
(He crosses his arms now and thinks,)
Without them, you're vulnerable, right?
no subject
Extremely.
no subject
He's quiet for a moment and then he nods before reaching for the sword at his side. He unfastens it and holds it out,)
Then we'll trade. Until I return, you can hold me.
(Did he have to word it like that? Yeah.)
