October
when the night falls on you
& you don't know what to do
& you don't know what to do
Wordlessly, Tobi takes the letter from Finn. Once upon a time the doctor had been confident that no matter how many pieces of Finn had been fractured off by Cian's assignments, that she could always put him back together. As his doctor first and then his friend. But now? Now the strangely something more that they were had somehow weakened what she thought she was able to do for him, when the inevitable came to pass.
Placing the letter on the table, Tobi considers carefully what to say. That Finn is going after a relic means that danger will be close by even if he isn't expected to fight, and gods knew what putting his glasses back on might reveal. But of course Finn knew all of that. Knew to be careful, knew he had a son who loved him and a Tobi who also loved him, in the unspoken way they'd gotten used to.
Hunched forward from putting the letter on the table, Tobi looks at Finn over her shoulder. "When do you think you'll leave?"

nothing you confess
could make me love you less
could make me love you less
