Worried Friends Offer Help

[born_in_flame]

Caleb knew he was hard to read, even Nott couldn't figure out what he was thinking sometimes and she was the closest to him among the Nien. Caleb had to play things close to the chest, his past and what he was running from demanded it. But just because he wasn't open with his thoughts and feelings doesn't mean he doesn't have them.

He is currently in his cabin on the Ball Eater thinking about Fjord. Losing power after having it can be difficult and Caleb is worried for his friend. Then an idea occurs to him and after a bit of mental back and forth he gets up and goes looking for the half orc before he talks himself out of his plan.

"Fjord," he calls softly, "I was wondering if we could talk?"

"I... well I feel kinda similar, to tell the truth. Didn't really have many friends before meetin' you all, so this is... well it's nice." He'd had companions and acquaintances but they'd all been superficial for the most part, kept at arm's length for his own well-being. And Caleb... he was finding himself growing more attached to the wizard than the others for some reason, not that he minded it especially.

"I'd like to at least get this hand motion down a bit more before we switch tracks."

Caleb nods and moves back to Fjord's side reaching out to grip his wrists again. He's more comfortable with the motion this time around and he flashes a bright smile at the orc. "Whenever you are ready then," he says warmly, "Again you begin the motions and I will only step in if you need it."
