[It's so organized... And for however long Reim has been gone from this room, there doesn't seem to be a bit of dust. After the long, silent walk here that had been so different from their usual walks, it all feels heavy. He's relieved to be with Reim, of course, but he can already tell that his mind must be racing. Is he stressing out about this? Maybe it's more of a bother than anything else—

But Reim stretches out his arms and Zelos remembers that he shouldn't be focusing on trains of thought like that. He closes the distance between them, wrapping Reim in a tight hug and squeezing.]

For a second, I thought I wouldn't get to see you again. [It's mumbled quietly against him before his squeezing lessens, but he doesn't back up from this hug at all.]

We'll work things out just like we said. It'll just take some creative thinking, right? We can figure this out.
