    Summary

    Kabru didn’t see Mithrun very often.

    Between Kabru's work as a royal advisor and Mithrun's post-retirement plan to help track and control the monsters in outlying areas of the kingdom, weeks at a time passed when they weren't even in the same place.

    Kabru quickly realized, to his surprise and annoyance, that he missed Mithrun when he was gone. They hadn’t even spent that many days together in the dungeon, but somewhere between lulling Mithrun to sleep every night, fighting a demon together, and helping Mithrun begin to find a new purpose in life, Kabru had come to feel close to the other man. Mithrun, he was sure, didn’t feel the same way. How could he miss Kabru or care about seeing him if he had no desires? And yet, every time Mithrun was back in town, he came by to visit.

    Summary

    He wants to try.
    He is boneweary and heavy and it would be much less work to stop forcing himself-- to simply fade away. But instead he clings to the desire to be better and tries to wield it and find a reason to get out of bed. He hasn’t been able to do it yet. But maybe today he can. And maybe, then, tomorrow it will be easier.
