[ reynir knows better than to let himself be completely swept away by his emotions when lalli has already gone and extended more of an olive branch to him than he would have ever dreamed possible, but there's definitely a shine to his eyes that wasn't there before when he turns his head to keep looking at lalli.

crying happily all over the other boy for simply touching shoulders seemed like exactly the sort of way to encourage him to never do that again. he doesn't bother trying to hide the soft, sheepish smile on his face though. ]

If I only cared about people that were nice to me, I think I'd lead a pretty boring, lonely life. And besides, after everything we've all been through together I think we've kind of gone beyond nice, don't you?

[ never mind that what lalli is doing right now is nice in his own very lalli way. ]
