The shorter teen turned to frown at C. "No... it was always Mello..."

[Mint]

"...I'm sorry." C offered- patting Naveen on the shoulder. "I wish I could've helped."

[Uke]

Naveen shook his head and reached over, turning the picture face down. He was silent for a moment, before he turned to look at C. "Shouldn't you be sleeping?"

[Mint]

"Ender was never big on cuddling." C replied. "Better give some space, I think, but I'm heading right back. What about you?"

[Uke]

The younger boy stared at him for a moment, before he smiled awkwardly. "...Wow. You die and suddenly everyone is your friend..."

[Mint]

"We kinda were before you died." C snorted. "Wammy's House is one big, f-ed up family."

[Uke]

"I can't recall us speaking much before New York," Naveen mumbled, looking to the side. "...In fact... I don't think you talked to anyone except Ender."

[Mint]

"It took New York to make me not a nervous wreck anymore." C laughed nervously.

[Uke]

"Still... we never really talked," Naveen sighed. "I didn't talk to anyone, really... Just Maddness... maybe if I hadn't lead him on so much, he..."

He fell silent, his hand touching his throat.

[Mint]

"...Hey, it's okay...you're not responsible." C said quickly.

[Uke]

The younger boy lifted an eyebrow at him, before sarcastically saying, "...Right. Its not my fault at all that Madness killed me because I didn't love him."

[Mint]

"B pushed him." C pleaded. "He was vulnerable and B took advantage of it, understand? He got into his head and twisted everything."

[Uke]

Naveen visibly cringed at the mention of Beyond, turning his face away. "Yeah, well... lets change the subject, please?"

[Mint]

"...He's stable, but comatose." C said. "And you're safe here."

[Uke]

"You are bad at listening," Naveen whispered. "...I need to get out of this room."

He moved past C rather quickly.

[Mint]

"Naveen!" C called- trying to go after him. "Naveen, I'm sorry, I just wanted you to know."
