Even if you're not swimming in it. You can still listen. It fills the air, too.
[ whether it's the crispness of a lakeside breeze, or the dry, sticky salt of the ocean air, or the warm fog of a sauna. he just loves all of it. there's a genuine peace even imagining as much, enough that it permeates into his emotions, calm and soft. ]
[ he says flatly, like don't argue with me binch or i will drink bleach.
anyway, he rolls over to reach a hand out, a gentle blue aura surrounding it. his healing powers are just that: gentle. the sound and sensation of a cool rain, soothing in the way it washes off pain and imperfection, though livio is entirely dry by the end of it anyway.
he doesn't do it long before rolling back over, but the point is there. ]
[ wipes his eyes quickly! at least he's over it. sometimes you feel rain for the first time after a very fun and normal weekend and you get a little emotional over it ]
[ listen he doesn't need to be comforted, they're tears of happiness because he thought he'd never see the rain. he regains his composure pretty easily, regardless ]
That's one good thing about different worlds and places.... there's so much out there. It's not just barren rocks and sand and worms.

Do you know what rain is?
no subject
Yeah. I'm still no good at swimmin' [ hilarious how swimming lessons died with rin ], but... I like the feel of it. The smell.
I know what it is. But.... I haven't felt it.

but he makes a mental note to get back to it. if everything ever calms down. ]
Maybe you will.
[ or... he thinks for a second. ] Do you have any injuries right now? Or scars?
no subject
Just bruises and scrapes....
[ a bit hesitantly ]
But don't push yerself.

O—Oi, don't cry...

Thank you. That was really nice.
no subject
...I'm glad.
[ despite everything else happening—and the ever-present grief, regret, and all that—he feels a bit of happiness for a second. ]
It's always nice when someone can show you something new.
