I... um...

[SOMEONE might, actually. But she can't bring herself to voice that.]

...I guess not.

We'll be keeping Quark safe for you while you're gone, too. No worries there.

Thank you.

He... he needs someone to trust as much as you do, John. Please. Be as understanding as you can.
jumpthegun: (confused | that's not right)

... Is there something I should know about him that might make me not understanding?

What? N-no, not at all. Really, I, um... I think you'd be better equipped than most people, from experience.

[Luna, you're making him nervous.]

Okay... I'll do my best, yeah? There'll be others with us, too.

...Okay, good.

He's just... um, how do I put it...

I don't think he's ever had much of a chance to be a child, in most respects. I've... told you about the pandemic. He's had to experience a lot of difficult things and grow up much faster than a boy his age should reasonably be accustomed to. And here... it's a little different. He's surrounded by people who want to protect him, but he ends up not being treated the same as usual. I don't know how many people he truly trusts when he's upset about something.

So, I think... I think having an adult who understands some of those complicated sorts of feelings will be good for him. I hope it will be, at least.

Does... that make sense?
