So he just crosses the room to sit over at the foot of his bed, looking back at Matt along the way like, yes, he's more than welcome to join him. Matt had caught him once, lounging about before going to sleep, before he'd had a chance to get more furniture in this room. After that first dinner with the Regent, and the way he'd come to him seeking solace, and... had Amos given it to him? Shit. He hopes so. ]
Before. In Venera. You did everything exactly right to try to help me. [ ... When Matt had pushed forward, just came out and said it. ] If something like that happens again, you should do that again. Just rip the band-aid off. Don't think you should ever hold back.
