[ Mayu waves back, a bit too stiffly to be casual. His eyes widen at Weiss's setup. He likes it, and regrets not bringing a pillow. The view of the city is rather pretty.]
Nice view.
[ His voice is soft and shaky, but at least it works. He sits on a corner of the blanket. His movements are slow and deliberate. Relaxing is a lot more difficult for him than usual.]
Sometimes if I need a moment to myself, I just stand close to the edge and try to let everything else fall away. This far up, it seems like everything's distant, even if it only lasts for a moment.
[ That's something she hasn't really shared with anyone, but Mayu seemed like he needed to know that. She settles in too. ]
The food should be here shortly. I wasn't sure what you wanted, so I ordered fried fish, Caesar salad, and something called a "ponado"...? As well as fried plantains, which I refuse to believe anyone would dislike.
[ This means more to Mayu than he can convey, that Weiss is sharing something so personal with him. He nods and swallows a lump in his throat. He's silent for a few moments because all of his effort is going into trying not to cry.]
Plantains sound good. [ Talking about food is easier than talking about what happened, once he gets himself under a semblance of control. As long as he doesn't think about what Koishi did to him.]
[ Weiss honestly doesn't know how to help him particularly. She's not the most.. comforting person. Which is funny, considering how many people have taken care of her in her life. BUt she's going to try, because Mayu is her friend and he needs her. ]
I don't think any of that should be complicated, so you'll be fine.
[ She's glad she decided against the crab. That's a lot of effort to get into for very little output. ]
[ Mayu's not the best at comforting either, even when he's aware that something is wrong. Weiss is already doing a lot. Just getting him out of his house and keeping him company is helping.]
Thanks.
[ He doesn't even like dealing with fish bones.]
Want to talk about anything?
[ It could be girl talk, or she could vent to him. He wants to help her while she's helping him. ]

I like what's easy to eat.

Sorry for late
Thanks.
