[ after three hours of contemplating probably- ]

General, would you happen to have a moment?

[eepy]

[ three hours??? ]

I have far too many moments here that I'm a little lost on what to do, haha.

How can I help you, Dan Heng?

[datas]

[ don't worry about it- <-guy who doesn't open up usually ]

It seems we are both in the same predicament.

... Do you think I'm too stiff?

[eepy]

Not at all, you're just very reserved.

Did someone say you are?

[datas]

Rather than directly saying so, it seems our views are different from what I've gathered.

Perhaps I'm too inflexible.

[eepy]

Oh? Do tell.

[datas]

... Comparatively, I am not quick to trust.

[ once again guy who is emotionally unavailable- ]

[eepy]

With all you’ve endured, it’s only logical that trust comes to you slowly. Wounds take time and gentleness to mend.

It's not a fault you should dwell upon.

[datas]

I was told that as comrades forced into a similar situation... it wouldn't be bad to put a little trust in people.

[ short pause before he continues. ]

I could understand their perspective but couldn't help but think it naive to be so... open.

[eepy]

[ oh dan heng ]

I see.

I too could understand their perspective and yours, given our circumstances, but trust and openness are not mutually exclusive. You can put trust in another person without allowing yourself to be emotionally open or vulnerable.
