But Yu doesn't feel for people like that. He never has, and even if he wanted to -- a life of travel doesn't make friendships like that possible.
And yet. And yet Aether's hand is as familiar as it is comforting. And yet he knows that his own family waits for him somewhere far away. And yet he knows the sting of loss--
(No. Too far. Take it back a bit.)
The smile slides back into his expression easily, and he nods, glancing around the area. Games, food, sights to see...there's a lot.] I'm ready. Where should we go first?
