[ He doesn't mind seeing Sycamore cry. He'd rather he be open and deal with this, than pretend that he's not okay. He squeezes Sycamore's hand as he talks, supporting him as he says it.
(Even if, support aside, he can't deny that it's incredibly hot to see Sycamore crying. Fuck, not now boner.) ]
It's not a competition. I think you needed to say it.
[The openness is certainly appreciated, at least, and Sycamore sighs deeply once again, looking down at their entwined hands.]
...you're right. Sorry. I've never been all that good when it comes to talking through my own feelings.
[He'll keep his gaze on their hands, but thankfully a soft smile is slowly spreading across his face.]
Do you know Lysandre and I always go and sit with the baby goats in the Groves, whenever we have to talk about something serious? So neither of us can react too emotionally, or get up and leave because it's too hard. It sounds a bit pathetic - we're grown men! - but it's been working quite well so far.
[Finally, he'll look Yashiro in the eyes; his are still quite damp, but to his credit, any tears have stopped.
(Sorry to any boners that may or may not be occurring.)]
I suppose for us, we can use this cafe, no? Whenever we want to talk through something that's a little on the overwhelming side.
[ He's surprised to hear it, when Sycamore normally seems to be so together. But maybe it makes sense. He and Lysandre have a long history. That kind of thing doesn't just get fixed because you end up in another world. ]
I don't know, I just come here for the cake.
[ Which has finally arrived?? so he's gonna eat that. ]
[You know, at least that makes him laugh rather enthusiastically.]
Of course! What better reason to come to a café, than the cake?
[Speaking of which, it does look good...he'll also start to eat his piece, while wiping those last unshed tears from his eyes.]
It's funny. You're the only person here I've told any of this - outside of Lysandre, obviously. I usually prefer not to, even to close friends! Do you have some sort of secret magical power?
[He'll lightly nudge Yashiro's leg under the table.]
Just when I think you can't surprise me any more, you exceed my expectations! I'm glad to know I'm an attractive crier, mon ami. Shall I sob for you again, some time~?
[ While on some level he still means this as a comment on the fact he finds it attractive, he also means it in terms of their friendship. He is here for him, whatever he needs. ]

[ It's nice??? Having someone to share things with?? ]
no subject
Mhmm, that's true. But how am I supposed to keep up my mysterious 'French' charm if you know all my secrets?
no subject
You might as well give up now. You can't be more mysterious than me. Gangster mystery tops french mystery.
no subject
Tch! Fine, I'll give you that.
[Whoops! Did he just whip out his fork and steal a piece of your cake?? He did! With a grin!]
I can be a gangster too, though.
no subject
no subject
...yeah, it's useless, now he's laughing as well. Laughter...sounds good. They deserve to laugh over something stupid for a moment.]
no subject
[ He scoots part of his uneaten cake towards Sycamore, though. Fellas,,,,, ]
Here, try some of this.
no subject
Ooh, it's really good! But all the cakes at this place are good.
[He'll promptly cut his slice in half with his fork, and turn his plate so that Yashiro can access it.]
You should have some of this, too. Go on!
[Fe...llas,,,,]
no subject
That's good. I'll have to get it next time.
no subject
I'll buy you a slice to take home. For listening to me be an emotional mess.
[He'll add one for Doumeki, too!]
no subject
no subject
[Now have the rest of his cake before they have another Moment, alright.]
no subject
[ he's got his own cake to finish!! stop that he had the taste and now he's back to his. ]
no subject
Said like that would be a problem! But I warn you - if you enter a gift giving contest with me, you're sure to lose.
no subject
[ I mean he was literally crying about doumeki dying just earlier, so. ]
no subject
[He will actually finish this cake of his, though. It's excellent.]
I'm touched you felt comfortable enough to come to me. Besides, we've each done our fair share of crying on each other, no?
no subject
[ he shakes his head but finishes his off, too. ]
Let's not make a habit out of this, I don't like crying. It's just because I've been up for too many hours.
no subject
[He's smiling, though - fondly.]
No more crying, then. You're far cuter when you're laughing, anyway.
no subject
[ sorry sycamore...its just...a yashiro thing. ]
no subject
okay, that makes him laugh...]
