[ does he normally bottle (bottom) it up is such a question that he - laughs, a little? god. ]

That would be an understatement. [ sweet ljh ] I don't know if people really can read him the way I do. But he's... lost a lot, in his life. It's part of why he doesn't have a lot, at all.

[ this is probably a little too much info to share about his beloved lin, but it's fine. he's just a spoonie who barely has the capacity to keep losing, so... this hurt him, and bixing knows it. ] I can't help but worry about him. And - I liked Childe, too, so. He was our friend.

[ so yeah the answer to both bottling and bottoming it up is a yes ]
