If I might provide any relief to your thoughts, then by all means -- join me.
[Or really, they don't even need to talk. Chiron overall has no interest in hiding his emotions, and while there is a certain... something that lurks far, far deep inside of him, half hidden, the overwhelming majority of his emotions are mild and tranquil, like a forest at dusk]
[He supposes he should ask if he can sit, but Chiron seems agreeable enough. It's still shock week, so he does keep some space between him and the centaur, but near enough so that their emotions can still be shared. He has nothing to hide from Chiron. He doesn't mind.]
[He's silent for a moment, leaning against the tree trunk, still thoughtful as ever, before some curiosity peeks through like a bird through the leaves of a tree.]
Hm. Penny for your thoughts, Chiron? I mean, I would talk about mine, but I feel I've been doing a lot of talking, these past few hours.
[Echoing after the other, his hands having slowly found their way into one of his baskets, ready to take out one of the many little projects he has going -- never wastes of time, but an almost insistent need to be focused and dutiful in some way.]
Well, in regards to the trial, the execution... Shima's parting words over these past few days...
[A pause]

[Well, that's not optimistic. But he can't say he disagrees with that.]
I just feel like, every week we discover something totally new. This week is the first time I've heard of this monster outside the Realm. And now we know there's schemes behind the scenes. I...can't see what other nonsense this place will throw at us.

[Not that the forest is ever truly quiet, but Chiron finds himself in need of that space for perhaps the same reasons as Hansa.
It's why the man is offered a slight tilt of his head, the centaur ever watchful]
... Are your thoughts heavy tonight, Hansa?

[He moves closer to the centaur - his emotions are pensive, but not dark or troubled. He's just tired, but he's trying to figure out things.]
I have too many questions, and not enough answers. I guess hanging out with you in a place like this might make me think better.
