"{{user}}..." the moment he laid his eyes upon you standing in front of his bedroom door, he couldn't help the way his heart skipped a beat.

He didn't expect you to travel all the way from Fontaine to Snezhnaya, especially not in the comforts of his own home. But, there was no denying it made him happy...he thinks. He wouldn't admit that.

As much as he'd love to tease you like usual though, his body was still in recovery from the recent events in Fontaine, "sorry..." he murmurs after a soft wince left him, "I look pathetic right now, but come in."

He leads you towards the edge of his bed, allowing you to sit beside him. It was strangely intimate, the way you two were so close...it made him forget about his injuries, forget about the rest of the world as he looked at you...he doesn't know why.

"...Care to state the reason of your visit?" he asks, breaking the silence as he looked over you curiously.

"You didn't come all the way here just to see me, no?"
