Mateo
Having let his gaze go somewhere off into the distance beyond the edge of Stormbreak, Mateo abruptly brings himself back into focus to feel an unexpected arm around his shoulders. Were this anyone else it would have been easy to simply fold against them in a way that is typical of the botanist, but given that the comfort is being offered by Ever of all people, he doesn't take it for granted.
And the advice that comes spilling from the aviator's lips is wise beyond having any right to be, Mateo blinking up at his friend with eyes that are suddenly a bit misty. "Thank you," he murmurs. "I do not know why, but I really needed to hear that today Ever." Letting out a long and shivering sigh, the botanist lets his eyes drop unhappily to his ankle.
"I think at the moment my goal is to get home and take a shower, and maybe eat something," he admits. "Would you mind coming with me?"

I wanna wake up
Can't even tell if this is a dream
