Evie
She won't always be able to reach him in just one day, one small heartfelt speech, but she will never stop persisting. Words held less meaning to him than actions, but it didn't mean Evie would ever stop using them to tell him how inspiring and wonderful she finds him, how much she loves him. So she takes a small victory in his lack of rebuttal and the tiny smile that hides in the corner of his mouth.
Taking momentum from his opening, she cringes and laughs. "Gods, Hotaru made me sing for our Academy training, that was bad enough!" But she sets aside her food and urges Deimos to do the same with those same flapping hands which then pull on his own. "Come on, lay down with me. We'll do some cloud watching!" It would give them a chance to be close, to let him think without falling too deep, and they have nowhere else to be today.

Cover your crystal eyes
And let your colors bleed and blend with mine
And let your colors bleed and blend with mine
