You make my heart shake bend and break
His eyes flicker with surprise and he offers the man a small nod, biting his lip as he did so. "Thank you- I'll see if I can get more." There... probably wouldn't be enough time, not at all. But he could write down the information, just in case someone found him in the manor and could fetch more water.
Things hadn't been going well and at this point, there was no use hiding it from the retired General. "Awful... Wessex is now the Queen, again and I'm the only person who could even be cured by the water." Which... sucked, to put it lightly. It sucked and Oliver felt so fucking alone even more so now that everyone else was leaving.
Offering the man a light shrug, Oliver tried to stay optimistic. He couldn't let his last time with Deimos be this depressing. Who knows when he will see the man again? "I can just... only stay positive, you know? There's so much up in the air and it's super confusing... I'm sure it's been hard on you too." Oliver stops himself from saying much of what's on his mind, knowing it's better to not overshare all of his problems. After all, he did come here to try and be happy.
