closetpervert | [Poly Entry 35:] Disappointment with a small chance of hope

[Offline:]
[Klarth placed his third bottle of wine down as he blankly stared at the pieces of sample he was able to retrieve. Even so... they ended up coming back. A pure waste with nothing but pieces of rocks as souvenir. If there was one thing he hated, it was lack of progress and significant ones at that. The number of nights he spent drinking due to it during his research on the spirits were notorious.

It was then the corner of his eye caught the sight of his device. Ah... two days. He hadn't told anyone yet has he? If only.. if only they hadn't gone through that door as he suggested. He felt a sense of guilt agreeing to it even if he wasn't the only one that thought it was a good idea at the time. What was he to tell those who had high hopes for this expedition? Though he figured the others may have already said something.

Ah well.... Best to let his voice be heard he supposed, in case anyone was concerned. He decided to message Spencer first, having collected these samples when it bounced back.

...Was he no longer... Klarth gave a small smile to that. At least he was able to return home. He then decided to switch to voice to direct it to everyone instead.]

[Voice;]

Ah... I'm back. [Spoke a soft and drowsy sounding voice with a small "hic" in the end.]

[ooc; Open AP to anyone who wishes to pay him a visit~<3]

[ And that was even more sad to see... He got up from his seat to follow Klarth. ] Actually, I'll take care of it. Just sit back down.

[He caught himself in the door frame by his forearm and stopped. Back towards the boy and head down, he softly spoke. Guilt overriding him.]

I'm sorry.

[ Tyr places a hand on Klarth's shoulder. ]

You don't have to apologise... You're my friend, and... I'm here to help you.

[He had to force a small chuckle. Perhaps his own homesickness was speaking for itself. The last he's ever allowed another to see him like this was Mirald. He deeply sighed and raised his head up a little, almost to fight a tear.]

...I'll find a way. I promise.

[ He can almost hear how Klarth feels in his voice, but Tyr doesn't know what to do. He bites his lips for a moment and just gives Klarth's shoulder a little squeeze. ]

...Right. [ His voice is quiet. ] But...you can't push yourself like this.

[What else was he to do? Maybe it was time he started thinking of the long run of being here... even forever... No. He couldn't. It was simply a long journey. Another long journey with his friends. Good friends.]

Aa, you're right. [He stifled the tear as he wiped his nose against the hand holding him up as he attempted to swing his other arm around Tyr's shoulder.]

I'll stop drinking after today. [He gave a small smile.]

[ His arm swinging out actually made Tyr step backwards automatically, but once he realises what Klarth's doing, he shifts and...puts Klarth's arm around his shoulders. Bro hug.

Tyr smiled at him, just a little. ] Good... You're going to have a headache in the morning as it is.

[Bro hugs ftw ♥ Once Tyr said that, his own smile weakened as he sheepishly laughed. He was definitely going to feel it all right.]

Morning hangover... brings back memories.

And they're not good ones, I assume.

[He sighed with a smile.]

We were on board a ship once and I recall having to leave Cless in charge of catching the culprit due to being hungover from the night before. Ah, was it embarrassing.

...

[ This is a look of Are you serious? for Klarth. ]

You should have reined in your drinking back then...

[He feels guilty, ok~? Tho his love for liquor will always remaaain~]

I-I just had my guard down a little too much that's all. I wasn't aware the man I was drinking with was the one. We were all certainly fooled by him.

[ Oh... Tyr's look switches to one of sympathy. ]

I guess you can't really be blamed, then... He probably drank with you just to make you trust him.

[That's right feel bad, he's not a real lush or anything /coughs]

Most likely, however, I've only myself to blame for allowing myself to fall into such trap.

[He shook his head and smiled.]

Either way, let's get that water, hm? And I'll tell you all about what happened.

[ I totally forgot this, but I'd really love to continue this thread! :< ]

[ A smile tugged at the corners of Tyr's lips for a second, but he couldn't keep it on. ]

Yeah, I'll grab us a couple glasses. Go back and take a seat.

[ He pats Klarth's shoulder and walks past him into the kitchen. ]

[No worries! I'm happy you doo~<333 /smothers with love foreverrrr]

[He watched him get the water for a brief moment with an appreciative smile before hobbling his way back to his seat and plopping down with a small 'oof' Remembering that he had food as it stares him right in the face, he called out to Tyr again.]

Ah, bring a fork too if you would! [A warm, home-like scent... it felt good.]

[ /cuddleeeees~♥♥♥♥ ]

Sure. [ He calls back to him and pulls a fork out of a drawer before he forgets. He returns to the other room with a fork and a glass of water and set them before Klarth. Seeing him looking at the food he brought made Tyr smile. He was worried about him, but at least he wasn't too broke up to eat.

He takes a seat adjacent to the desk and just sits there with his hands loosely folded on his lap. ]

[Klarth gratefully smiled when he returned with the items and slowly picked up the fork in effort to eat.]

Thanks. Did you make this? [He scooped a small mouthful.]
