[scythegun]

Well, I think it would be a bit difficult to be as obvious about it as I am... But it certainly is appreciated when you do show it!

[manufactured]

...I try to do that for you.

[It seems as though he should be saying something else regarding it - it's been more difficult for him nowadays to manage anything at all in that regard, he can't remember the last time he felt this way without it being practically dragged out of him. But that seems like something inherently unfair to bring up, something he shouldn't bring up to Jaeger, so for now he just leaves it at that.]

[scythegun]

I know, and you do a good job of it! I really am so happy with you, Albert.

[He's noticed that sometimes Wesker doesn't exactly sound all that enthused, but for now this is nice...]

[manufactured]

...I feel so much better now that I'm with you.

[scythegun]

I'm really glad I can help. It means so much to me...

[manufactured]

Of course you can; you always have.

[scythegun]

I do my best! Sometimes I'm really not sure what will help, but at the very least I can always be here for you.

[manufactured]

Sometimes that's all I need you to do.

[scythegun]

It really does mean so much to me that I can help you. I'll always be happy to help, so if you ever need anything more, please don't hesitate to ask.

[manufactured]

...I'll do what I can.

[He...probably won't, but he'll keep coming to you, at least.]

[scythegun]

[He knows... But at least you'll keep coming to him...]

Good, I appreciate it! I'll always be here for you, no matter what.

[manufactured]

Of course, Jaeger.

[...]

Come upstairs with me. I...haven't slept very much, I imagine I ought to lie down.

[scythegun]

Oh, yes, of course! You really should get some sleep!

[He hasn't gotten much sleep either, so this works out. Jaeger's quick to pull back and get up, though he's going to reach out for Wesker's hand.]

[manufactured]

[He'll allow Jaeger to take his hand easily once he's up. His grip is still tight; he clearly doesn't want to let go.]

I won't insist that you remain with me the whole time; just stay until I fall asleep.

[...He sort of hates that he has to ask for that much, but he's willing to do it for now; this whole thing is leaving him feeling more vulnerable than he would ever want to.]

[scythegun]

[Jaeger pauses and turns to look at Wesker.]

I won't leave you alone. I'll be right there by your side. Besides, I need some sleep too! I haven't been sleeping very well lately.

[His grip tightens on Wesker's hand anyway, though.]

[manufactured]

...All right, then.

[He'll follow upstairs, then, whenever you want to go; he's certainly not going to argue if you want to stay with him.]

[scythegun]

[Of course he does! He is going to have to let go of you for a moment though to get changed, but once he's done with that he'll join you on the bed.]

Try to get some rest, ja? I'll be right here when you wake up.

[manufactured]

[Well, yes, he's going to have to get changed as well, but once that's done he's going to be lying down more or less immediately. He seems pleased when Jaeger joins him, though, and he'll reach out to run his hand through Jaeger's hair once he's settled.

This is nice, all right. There aren't any words for now, but there really don't have to be.]

[scythegun]

[Oh, that's nice, he'll lean into that of course. This is really comfortable and comforting; he really has missed Wesker and he's happy to be here with him now. Jaeger's content with shutting up for the time being, just leaning into the hair-playing and letting his eyes fall closed.]
