[It takes him a moment to answer, mostly because Lucio is really good at that massage thing.]

Because he likes us too much.

[Silence.]

Yeah, I know how it sounds.

[wallride]

...I don't get it. What-- why?

[GOOD HE'S WINNING.]

[shiro2hero]

Because... he got too attached. He was concerned about what would happen if he left.

[From his muffled tone, it's clear that yes, Shiro is aware of how stupid this idea is, said aloud.]

So. To him... leaving on his own would be better.

[wallride]

So, he... wanted to go because he cared too much?

[he frowns, trying to understand.]

Was this because of... that shadow thing?

[shiro2hero]

Something like that, yeah.

[He actually twitches. At the mention of "that shadow thing."]

... I don't know. Maybe.

[wallride]

[he feels the twitch and stops for a moment, wincing.]

...Sorry. Do you think he'll do it again?

[shiro2hero]

You're fine.

[Nothing to apologize for, at any rate.]

He says he won't. I'm trusting him with that.

[wallride]

Hmmm...

[the noise lúcio makes indicates he's not entirely on board with that belief, but he doesn't ask anything further, only continuing the massage in relative silence.]

[shiro2hero]

... Yeah. I know.

[Lucio doesn't even need to say anything. The noise says enough. So he'll just stay still and let him work.]
