"A bit. I prefer not to overload others with my problems." And it feels a little cruel to put this all on Rook, doesn't it? Someone so close to his brother who he has inappropriately touched and overshared to today. He'll feel guilty if it's enough to scare the blond off, but... if it did wouldn't it just mean that they weren't meant to be in the first place?

The glass jar is closed tight as he tucks it away, again taking his water bottle for another drink. Maybe it is convenient that Rook brought his own large canteens after all... Jade may not be reaching for them yet, but if they stay out here too long he's sure that he will.

"It isn't exactly an uplifting subject, is it? I hope that my words haven't scared you off." Of Floyd, of course.
