[Voice // SOOPER private]
[Especially when the relationship between son and mother was tenuously stable for the first time in five years.]
Re: [Voice // SOOPER private]
[she doesn't want to overstep, so she adds hurriedly--]
You know him better than me, obviously, I'm just wondering because... he said something to me, when I spoke to him. About how he wishes his mother had been more forthcoming with him. Maybe he'd want you to do the same?
[Voice // SOOPER private]
[Rather than offended, his tone immediately changes to something softer, almost ashamed.]
...You're right, Carol-san. I can't get any right answers until I ask him directly. He would want that!
[Especially after, well, everything that had happened.]
Even if he tries to avoid it, I have to consider his feelings more important than anything else!
Re: [Voice // SOOPER private]
[Voice // SOOPER private]
[He means it sincerely, not in a sort of dismissive, "I don't want to talk about my problems" way. He knows he'll be alright, safe and sound, as long as he's by Raikou's side.]
Re: [Voice // SOOPER private]
[Voice // SOOPER private]
Actually, Carol-san, that's something I worry about.
Re: [Voice // SOOPER private]
[Voice // SOOPER private]
Carol-san, I understand that Badou-san can be very difficult, and I know that there's much more to his past that he doesn't reveal publicly. It might not be my place to say, but...
I worry that he's causing you too much trouble and worry!
[For how much he talks to the kid, there's very little he actually knows about him, but he can sense a mentally unhealthy individual from the smallest cues, and Badou practically had a blinking, neon sign pointing to him.]
Re: [Voice // SOOPER private]
I'm--
[is she really being that obvious? carol has no idea what she's doing with badou, she's stumbling through and hoping for the best (but the best never seems to come), and keeping it together is taking all the energy she has -- but she thought she at least had a handle on how much of that other people saw.
can it be that maybe she doesn't?]
I'm fine, Gau, really. I can handle one bratty kid, there's nothing to worry about.
[Voice // SOOPER private]
[no matter how much it bothers him or causes him trouble, Gau knows Badou has more power than that, more than to be ignored or dismissed.
He couldn't imagine being responsible for his well-being, essentially.]
If you need help, please, ask for it!
Re: [Voice // SOOPER private]
[the more she says it, the more certain she sounds (even though she's really, really not).]
I know he's -- got a lot of problems, but it's okay. I can deal with what he throws at me.
[her voice goes softer now, a pensive quiet.]
He's worth the trouble. It's fine.
[Voice // SOOPER private]
There's not much he could do here, is there? This wasn't his "family", or even remotely his business. Gau was all for throwing himself in the line of fire, but at the same time, battles had to be chosen carefully.]
...Please take care of yourself, Carol-san.
