finn

it always seems more quiet in the dark

Sagging back into the side of the sofa, it's a surprise to absolutely no one that Finn reaches once more for his glass of wine (and suddenly its presence makes a lot more sense). His lips part as Tobi points out that setting the table should be Ever's job, as if he wants to say no, I want to do it because then I don't have to talk to anyone, but he luckily catches himself in time. "That is a good point," he admits, pulling at a loose thread on his pants.

Disappointing his son was never on the table, so Finn is already gently shaking his head to Tobi. "If Ronin is there, I think things will be alright," he says softly. He hopes they will be, anyway. "And... well. He could always say no, couldn't he?" Somehow, though, Finn very much doubts that.

it always feels so stark
