[ sousuke sees the the tears but also watches the way that rin fights them, holds them back in place of the smile, the hope. they've only been here for a few months (only, only, sousuke almost wants to retract the thought thinking about it) but it feels like a lifetime. like their friendship, their selves, have been tested and redefined.
he has accepted that his life would always involve pain, in some way, and the fact that he's all but painless in this moment is a little hard for him to wrap his head around. it seems to be difficult for rin too, if that hesitation is anything to go by, but they'll figure it out. they always do. ]
Hurry up, will you? [ it's a joke, and sousuke is smiling as rin disappears behind the door. he leans back against the wall as he waits, unable to really let his guard down when he's alone. thankfully it shouldn't take rin too long to come back, and after that?
well. they'll have to see, won't they? sousuke forgets the last time he was even in a pool, and that thought sobers him a bit. ]
