Argenti's Palace

The stage is set they say;
They don their masks and shields,
Shadows creep and cover their minds;
Now, what beautiful role shall they play?

[........So he's picking out those flower petals as the perfect pretense to give a little feel-better -patpat-. And a Dia, while they're comparing notes.]

[ Celeste! Why! Eli looks away moodily as the petals are cleaned out of his hair, but despite that, he leans over to give Celeste an affectionate little shoulder bump. Look, shut up, he's trying to be subtle, don't perceive him. ]

...thanks.

[It is subtle! Okay, sure, Celeste notices, but, like, he's meant to. And because Eli is trying to be subtle he won't even draw attention to it past a warm little smile.]

Can't have you too hurt before we face the tin can, right?

[ Kind of shocking Eli's managing to be subtle at all, but he's been learning a lot in the past month and a half. ]

Ha, yeah. I'll try not to wander off alone next time, too. That was pretty dumb.

It was. But not unexpected.

[He'll pause for just long enough that Eli might worry about it before-]

He kept wandering off in Izou's palace. Perhaps his own will make us all more prone to following his example.

Huh... Maybe. Probably all the more reason to have a buddy system or something.

[You set yourself up for this, Eli--]

What a good idea~

[Because you might have been being subtle, but he's going to just take and hold your hand, now.]
