( Siffrin's logic is sound, but he huffs (in that big dog way) when Siffrin says it, clearly upset - not at Siffrin, but at their situation. Doing all this loop stuff alone without any help... He's frustrated for Siffrin.

Despite that, or, perhaps, because of that, the weather feels a lot nicer as they talk - he can't help Siffrin on their journey beyond here, but he can at least give them nice weather to rest in, before they eventually have to proceed. )

Sure. As much as I can. ( A promise (and a threat). He pushes forward, nosing Siffrin's hair like an affectionate animal. ) But would a call interrupt you? The way Homura described the whole thing to me made it all sound really delicate.

( All those little nuances, all those little cogs and wheels... )
