Emmrich is crying, you guys.

This wouldn’t normally be a problem. People cry, even senior members of the Mourn Watch who wrap themselves in dignity and academics like armor.

But Taash is the one who comes to his door and finds him slumped over his desk in a fit of tears.

He isn’t even crying that loudly, really. Taash has known some of the Lord’s of Fortune to bawl and howl after a tense moment, or a few too many drinks.

Emmrich is crying in a quiet, restrained way, with shaking shoulders and his mouth muffled in his hands. It’s heartbreaking, but surely Taash is not the right person to help with this.

Manfred thinks differently and hisses at them when they try to leave.

Well too bad, this is not what Taash was expecting to find when the skeleton came to them for help.

They try to push past Manfred, and his bones rattle loudly against the doorway. Enough that Emmrich looks up in alarm.

“Oh,” he splutters, and fumbles for an actual cloth handkerchief. He tries to get ahold of himself, but for some reason the sight of Taash seems to only increase the flow of tears.

And now its too late to back out.

“Hey,” Taash says, slipping into the room, “it’s…it’s okay. Whatever’s wrong i’ll help. Are you hurt?”

“No.” the death mage sniffs, wiping ineffectually at his streaming eyes and wet cheeks. He blows his nose and its adorably like a honk. “It’s just that…” he gestures widely, encompassing the whole Lighthouse. “…everyone is so kind.”

Oh. Taash feels their own eyes sting, quickened by the amount of emotion on their friend’s face. They get it. They’ve all drawn so close together here, not just through battle and trauma. Its about Lucanis and Bellara’s dinners, Rook’s stupid jokes, and Neve’s concerned looks.

Taash gets it. They’re a weird little family. And maybe they wipe away some tears of their own as they envelop the skinny mage in a hug, and Manfred hisses happily.

(I love you guys. I am overwhelmed by this little community we have. Thank you) <3

my favorite part of the week is when we watch a guy turn chocolate into a fucking bike and we have to just accept that it happened.
