[ is helping with this & that, exchanging a few words with some people, sitting down for a few minutes with others if they were insistent -- but he's mostly on his feet or by the door, greeting & serving.

this used to be his life. he doesn't really miss it (right now, he was only here for anna; wouldn't be here otherwise). eyes go up to the clock for the umpteenth time, sighing inwardly. too much time left. too much. ]

[ lets some more silence pass between them, knowing that there are only so many ways to work into it. but since he's him, he just jumps right to the point. ]

I mean I'm thankful for you letting me in. I know that it's difficult to have outsiders become close to you. I'm a very lucky person.

[ --that doesn't deserve it is what he wants to add on to that last part, but stops before he lets it slip. ]

[ expression softens a tad, just noticeable. ]

You're the same way. [ so thank you too, he wants to say. ]

[ but there's something else he wants to say even more & if he missed his chance now, it'd be another few years before he got another one, he was sure. ]

You are special.

[ thinks on those words silently to himself, then slowly and carefully sits up again, just so they're (sort of) eye-to-eye. instead of looking at him he leans back into the couch, an arm reaching over to curl around rob's shoulders, enjoying the closeness. closes his eyes again and smiles. ]

As are you.

[ tucks himself against riku, smiling against him. ]

[ holds on a bit tighter, just basking in the moment. watches the people around them walk on by, pitying them for not having what he has at the moment, and hopefully will have for a very, very long time. ]
