Everest
Wordlessly, Ever bobs his head. Mateo's bold and brave and reckless in ways that keeps Ever up at night, and though he loves those qualities in his friend, he knows that on his own, they're more than likely what will get him killed.
As Finn speaks the rule into being, Ever's shoulders sag noticeably as he exhales most of the tension he'd been carrying. Flipping open a new page in his notebook, he writes down his father's words exactly as he'd spoken them. "Thank you." He murmurs appreciatively, before glancing up a touch startled. "You..you will?" Having fully expected duty to keep both of his parents 'out' during the war, this revelation has a genuine and unmanaged smile spreading across Ever's face. "You really mean it? We can all be together? Safe?"

But if the song never stopped, it wouldn't have any magic
So even though it's gotta end, I'll keep singing along
So even though it's gotta end, I'll keep singing along
