[Ash helped him pack up his things and they've made it to the campsite.
Pat's since ordered dinner for everyone, because while Pat does not feel up to eating at the moment, it's better to have it on hand for when he does... and honestly, nobody's probably up to cooking, he figures. The food hasn't arrived yet.
Pat's sitting on the ground outside. The Calming Heart Bear is inside the RV at the moment, mainly because Pat's just. Ripping pages out of a cheap spiral notebook and setting them on fire.
(He's being careful about it, at least.)]

[And Pat tightens his own hug...
And if it's kind of clinging, well... shhhh.]
Yeah.
[Though... there's one thing he's wanted to do since Zhongli's little announcement in the Black Order chat, that he hasn't allowed himself to do.
... it's safe enough now. He can let himself cry when he's just with Ash.]

[Shit.
Ash is not good at this but fuck if he's going to push Pat away like this. He just shifts to hug him a little better, swallowing hard to fight back his own tears. He doesn't cry. Fuck crying.
But goddammit tonight sucks.
After a bit, in a clear attempt to distract Pat from the everything:]
So apparently, Elliot and Schwarzer have a "spare knife box". And didn't know why I asked what the fuck.

[He might not be good at this, but Ash is here and that's enough for Pat.
He does calm down enough after a while that while he doesn't lift his head from Ash's shoulder, when his shoulders start shaking again, it's at least from a weak laugh rather than a sob.]
What the hell?
