on hopefully only *temporarily* losing his morpher to Astronema
What do you mean it was bound to happen? I'm not--
I hate you so much, and I better get it back.
[ooc: doing the email response thing which I never quite get right I'M SORRY IF IT GOES WEIRD]
[also holy crap I have skimmed through your journal on my little tablet and wow you are amazing with him]
[Zhane hugs him tight, because Andros is his best friend, and he looks nearly as crap as he did when they were about to face that last battle on KO-35.]
Yeah? I guess that explains why I couldn't find you on the Megaship. How long have you been gone?
[He makes a worried face at the comments about Astronema. Is she Karone or Astronema at this point? How safe is Andros, exactly - not just physically, but emotionally? Zhane reaches out a little, mentally, just to see if he can feel the edges of how Andros is doing just now.]
[...and then his jaw drops.] You told her she could push you? For funsies?
Andros, howsabout we get her a deck of cards, or maybe a good book, if she's bored? So she can not do things that lead to my best friend getting killed?

{mwahhh oh bless you, I love how DRY Andros gets]
Four days, right. Okay........ When you - ?
[Zhane's eyes go wide and his nose wrinkles. He didn't find it a walk in the park to come out of cryosleep after two and a bit years. Actually DYING must make it... wow. He holds onto Andros for a while longer, and when he pulls back, it's only to slip an arm around the other's waist. A not so surreptitious offer of support for if Andros' legs do that wonky thing that they do sometimes when Andros is running on empty.]
[Oh, that gets him a snort. He grins at Andros, appreciating that he's trying for humor.]
Good idea. Mine's the chocolate bubbleberry with extra sauce.
[Quietly] You need to sit down?

Yeah? I wish I could tell you some tricks about being careful around her.
[He can't, and he gives Dustin a rueful smile anyway. She's too good.]

[Zhane likes feeling Andros' warmth against his side. Reminds him that he's not dead, and that Andros isn't dead - today, anyway - and that's good, right? While there's life, there's hope? He rubs Andros' shoulder on the far side, in that half-teasing, half-bracing way that they have with each other.]
Chocolate bubbleberry is TOTALLY the best. You should try it sometime! Especially with extra chocolate sauce, peppermint sprinkles, and the snot-coloured yoghurt. It's amazing!
Well. She has good taste in icecream! She has bad taste in who she accidentally kills. [He makes a sour face.]
[...there's a tiny twitch at Andros not getting huffy over that. Not that Zhane doesn't appreciate it; he likes when there's no grandstanding between them. He's just as guilty of it in his own way as Andros can be. Andros tends more towards the grim 'I'm FINE' comments and he himself tends to be more 'hey, I'm feeling so good, watch me do this cartwheel whoops please ignore the blood'. But it does mean that Andros really isn't feeling so great.]
Okay...
Ah.
Ah. [Deep breath. Andros needs honesty, here, and openness. Not something Zhane's all THAT fond of, but for Andros...] It was weird. Took me a while to adjust, I gotta admit. I knew what'd happened, but I didn't know in here. [Smacks his chest with his free hand.]
Having friends around was helpful. Having you around. [He waggles his eyebrows ferociously at this. Meaning you'd better not shut me out.]

[Zhane would like to note that he rarely just walks around a corner. He strolls, or occasionally flat out runs when something's horribly wrong, but most often? He saunters, and he's very proud of that saunter.
He blinks at Andros reaching for him mentally, a wondering smile coming across his face. Reaches back, brushing gently against Andros' mind. There's no one he trusts like he trusts Andros. He'd let him into his mind entirely, if Andros wanted.
Then he laughs.]
It's only a problem if you stop. You don't have to deal with sugar highs if you just keep eating sugar!
All right. You got some backup?
[Andros sure does look pretty when he goes to brood in the moonlight. But that's the only reason Zhane waits for more than a second or two before he sits down with him. He knows Andros needs to brood sometimes. Everyone needs to be quiet, sometimes. But his best friend shouldn't be alone.]
...thank you.
