[This is one of those situations where 'should' doesn't mean a damned thing. Falcon just completed an extremely emotionally taxing errand, after all.]

If you changed your mind, I thought it prudent to be nearby.

[gorobo]

[Ugh. Ugh. The emotional toll of it all has a far greater impact than he'd like, and it's... a surprising struggle to keep Robin stable. He manages it, of course. He won't be weak, no more. He just has to take the spare parts and charging unit for Lyssi home.]

Yeah, well, I'm done now. You can go... actually enjoy yourself. Have a look around the island, the flora and fauna are rather unique.

[Deflecting, because that's what he's good at.]

[rosemaudite]

It's a bit dark for that by now, isn't it?

[Besides, while it is lovely scenery, that's not why she's here.]

[gorobo]

[UGH.]

That's- you shouldn't have spent the entire day waiting here. And I mean- look.

[He gestures towards the more tourist-y side of the island.]

I'm sure you'll find something interesting worth doing or seeing over there.

[rosemaudite]

Is it so hard to believe I came here to support you, not to be a tourist?

[gorobo]

...

[No, he believes it. It's just...]

You shouldn't have bothered.

[rosemaudite]

Hardly the worst thing I've done for a friend.

[gorobo]

[!

...]

... Whatever. I'm done now. I'm going home.

[Keeping Robin out like this is draining. Not like he can't, but it's just... draining.]

[rosemaudite]

[That's entirely fair, really.]

Do you think you'll need to come back, or not?

[gorobo]

[Need to? Maybe. Want to...?]

I'm not, no.

[rosemaudite]

All right. I hope having the extra parts around will be helpful, in the long run.

[gorobo]

I'm sure they will be.

[It's all he says before he moves to leave, although he briefly hesitates...]

See you.

[Then, he's gone for real, Robin floating behind him like a giant beacon.]
