The task I got in exchange for healing Rin last night was, uh... to have other people pick out outfits that I'd have to wear for... some amount of time, I'm not sure. So... would you mind running over to the costume closet with me quick to find something you think would look cool?
[ dress him up for trial as a distraction... ]
[ dress him up for trial as a distraction... ]
For trial, huh? Yeah. I can find somethin' for ya.
[It takes him a bit to find all the pieces for the outfit he's envisioning. Congrats on your new fit.]

Huh...!
[ he holds the scarf up and looks at it. ]
I don't think I would have tried anything with a pattern like this, but it looks kind of cool when it's together with everything else.
[ and like, he totally loves that rope thing with the stars... and gloves being included. ]
Thanks!

I see!
[ that makes sense. he apparently asked the right person! ]
I've never done a lot of patterns besides like, basic stripes and dots sometimes... I'll keep that in mind.
[ now he just has to do a good job during trial while he's wearing this... ]

[ sending a text a little later when he doesn't see bradley around... even if sebastian isn't the most observant person, he couldn't miss how rough the end of that trial was on him.
and now... they're going to be all that's left of their group from last week, huh. ]
hey :( are you ok?

[ it was nice distracting himself with his successes for a minute there, but his smile fades again, and he nods. ]
Yeah. There was just... a lot. Sheila, and Rin freaking out, and... finally knowing whose fault it was Bucky died.
...Maybe it's not fair to say that, since it was probably a shadow with him too, but... it sucks that he'd never admitted it even after the shadow was gone.

[ He takes a seat at the chess table. ]
Felt long and short at the same time.
Self preservation's a valuable skill. [ There's still a certain bite to it. He doesn't accept Diluc or what he's done. But intellectually he knows that's a reasonable reaction, staying alive is something most people want. ]

[ he sits down on the other side.
...it's not a real chess set, the board and pieces are all glued together. he doesn't know how to play it anyway. at least he doesn't have to admit that to kaeya now. ]
I guess. I don't... think I'd be able to deal with that guilt, though. I mean, once my hostage was safe, I'd...
[ though he trails off and frowns at that. ]
...I don't know.

[ Bradley looks at him for a very long moment. ]
You ain't the type that's suited to this. [ What's wrong, what's right. Those things seem to weigh on his mind much more than on Bradley's. ]
Wanting to live ain't a bad thing. Smart to run when ya know you can't win.
I'm still fucking pissed at ponytail.
