For as long as he needed it, Kamille would wait patiently for the tears to roll and the words to flow. Tears washed the soul, or so she believed, spilling away all that's been bottled up. Emotions were not meant to be locked away, and if he refused to let them flow for long enough... Well, she assumed he knew it much better than her. For such a gentle and easygoing outlook, the happy traveler hid such deep pain, it was hard to fight back tears of her own, as her heart took his pain for herself as well.
With a light squeeze to his shoulder, she offered a gentle smile as he looked up with a glint of sadness in his eyes. As gentle as the soft flutter of a butterfly's wings, the Witch wiped away his tears.
"Emotions are not meant to be contained forever - they'll eat you from the inside. Talk to someone you trust, please. I'd happily be a shoulder to cry on again should you need me. Steel your heart, but don’t isolate yourself. You're not alone. You don’t need to go through this alone. You have so many amazing friends you met on your journey, I bet every single one of them would be willing to offer you the support you need... each with their own, unique way."
Slowly, with a final gentle squeeze of his shoulder, she pulled her arm back, even if she remained close.
"Isolating yourself is a sure way to get yourself lost and living the bitter consequences of true solitude..."
At the surface level, Ulrich had a lot of connections and friends - though, if she had a fairly good idea of what he was like, she wondered he probably didn’t let many step too close. A heavy sigh escaped her lips - it felt like it was about to go rest, but she would try to lighten up the mood before: "I got much better at reading palms too, you know...."
