I am sorry to hear that.

[ the disappearance, obviously. ]

Someone else offered me a room only minutes ago.

[secondnature]

Oh.

[Keith has never had this situation. Dragging Jughead in just made sense.

Now, it's ... awkward.]

Okay.

That's fine.

[shorelined]

[ the timing is. something. ]

If I had not accepted Hafid's offer, I would have been glad to take you up on your offer. I appreciate that you thought of me.

[secondnature]

Hafid's place is a mess right now.

[He doesn't mean it in a mean way. Though if anyone's seen the conflict between them, they might not be wrong to conclude that.

He quickly sends another text.]

I mean that he's not doing well and he needs some help! You being there should help.

[shorelined]

It is. But I have stayed in worse places.

[ his father's submarine had been worse, despite the fact that his quarters had been neat and equipped with all amenities he could have wanted. ]

[secondnature]

That doesn't mean it'll be easier. But I'm glad he won't be alone. I'm not really the best person to help him get things together.

And Kara was a big loss. To all of us.

[shorelined]

I did not know her. I am sorry for that, now.

I think he and I will both benefit from this arrangement. [ easier to admit when it is to make things more balanced for damian. ]

[secondnature]

I guess I've been saying it'd help him, huh?

Are you sure you'll be okay?

[shorelined]

I am sure.

[ no reason for concern etc etc he'll be fine ]

[secondnature]

Okay.

If anything happens, you've always got a place with us.

[Since ... that happens. People disappear. That's what happened here.]

[shorelined]

Thank you. I appreciate that.
