No, it’s — just the right thing to do! That’s all! You would have done the same! [ He hears that faint crack in Momo’s voice, and panic immediately starts bubbling from the pit of his stomach. Jion hurriedly flaps his hands in denial, his nervous laugh coming out a little higher-pitched. ] Um, I’m really glad if you like it, though! Since it’s the holidays and all, you know? And, um ...

[ He takes a deep breath to try and calm himself, his voice smoothing out as he continues. ]

Especially since. You helped me out a lot since we got here? There’s a lot of stuff I’m not used to dealing with, and I was honestly pretty nervous about a lot of stuff when I ended up here. So I think it helped a lot to get to talk to someone like you — you know, supportive and nice and friendly. That helped me calm down a get used to the flow of things here a lot. And um, there’s no that much I can do in return. You know, other than medic-stuff, my usual job. So if there is anything I can do to help, I really want to. Even if it’s just running errands or helping deal with the cold, or ... listening, if there’s anything weighing on your mind?

[ Was that too on-the-nose? He fidgets with his hands as he speaks, trying to gauge Momo’s reaction to that last bit. Because as disorganized and flustered as his words are, they’re totally sincere. And Momo really does look like he needs to get something off his chest. ]
