[No answer because Shion is searching for him. Luckily Shion can go anywhere Dave can since he has Dave's permission.

He finally found him in the courtyard, by which time he was out of breath and very worried. He didn't speak, just went over and wrapped his arms round him. Because hugs made things better... right?]

[He almost threw Shion off him. Impulse, only because things draping or wrapping around him were either threats or smuppets. Neither were exactly things he was incredibly fond of. He just stiffened up a bit, relaxing a tad when he recognized it as Shion.]

dude
gay

[Shion didn't let go even when he seemed about to throw him off, it wasn't like Dave couldn't get out of his grip easily if he wanted to.]

What happened to John? [Still hugging.]

[Dave is conflicted. He wants the hug, but hugging isn't really what coolkids do. And it's kind of awkward. And he isn't used to this. And, dear lord, the raging emotions going on cannot be tamed.]

went to be a hero

[Raging emotions or not you are getting hugged. Shion closes his eyes when he speaks, so John was gone...

He didn't know what happened to those who disappeared, and he wasn't sure if there was a correlation between the fact John had been in a coma so much and him disappearing. But if Dave wanted to believe he had gone home, or somewhere to be a hero like out of a story, then Shion wouldn't crush that belief.]

All the more reason to try and escape, so that you can see him again.

[Dave has his doubts. He's just clinging onto the chance that maybe everyone just went home. The tower made him worry though. It couldn't just be coincidence that it was filled with Weapons. Weapons belonging to people. People he met and fought with or together.

But he was going to deny it for now, if only to avoid the impeding breakdown that would result from the thought of John being amongst them]

we just got to finish this shit
open all those towers

[Frankly Shion likes Lemina's theory that the weapons are just their for storage, not peoples souls at all but just things inserted into their souls on arrival.

He wasn't sure either theory made sense but Lemina's was less depressing, more hopeful. Didn't leave the question to why people's Weapons would be left behind when their bodies left unanswered.]

Yes, only five more. [Five more monsters... could they defeat five more creatures?]

[Dave doesn't know what to think. He doesn't really want to think about it.

He just assumes there's a lot more to this place than they can even grasp right now.]

walk in the park
its basically cake
so much cake
were all be leaving with diabetes

Exactly [Another hug and he moves away] It will be fine, I promise. [Now if only he could believe it himself.]

dont keep promises you cant keep
youll feel bad for breaking it
and the other person will be mad because you made one that you couldnt keep

[Dave doesn't mean to lecture. He just doesn't want to be given empty promises. Both of them know they don't really have any way of knowing it'll be fine.]

[Shion looks down, Dave is right. He shouldn't promise things he had no control over, he should not believe that he had that power. It would only end in disappointment.]

I'm sorry, then I promise instead that I will do everything in my power to make sure you get home safely, I can promise to try at least.

youre worrying too much
i got my shit handled
we just need to play this stupid game and ollie outtie as soon as we can

[At least, he hopes that's how it'll work. He isn't sure anymore.]

[Of course he was worrying, he always worried. But he nodded and gave him another hug, because he looked like he needed it.] Exactly.

i swear all of you guys
either really like hugging
or i attract hugs
i cant decide which one it is

[Except he doesn't actually mind. But he has to complain about it or else he'd be less cool or something.]

You're always so sad, so people want to hug you is all. [Still hugging.]

im not always sad

[You don't understand Shion. Being cool means always having a poker face or something. He's not actually sad. He's just not smiling or something.]

You always looks sad. You should smile more. [Your thirteen Dave, you shouldn't have a poker face.]

girls would be swooning left and right if i smiled all the time
just because im not smiling doesnt mean im sad
i just got a reputation to hold up

[But he's cool this way...]

Right, a reputation... [Shion smiles and hugs him again.]

youre the biggest hug magnet
it is you

[Trying to not be less cool or whatever.]

I thought it was you...

nope
youre the one giving me the hugs
not the other way around

Yes but you are the one attracting the hugs, therefore you are the magnet.

does that make you a hugaholic or something?
better watch yourself
hugs can get super addicting
cant hug too much or you cant quit
dont give me the i can quit when i want to speech
ive heard it all before

[He totally avoided the whole being a hug magnet part.]

I think they are a good thing to be addicted to. [And for that Dave, you are getting another hug. He noticed that avoidance.]
