[It's a weight he's too familiar with, too downtrodden and weary about in his own accord. So when the wave hits, he goes under and nearly stays under, arms thrashing in the water as he coughs for breath he can't quite reach. It's a delicate balance, as he knows far too well, but being overwhelmed makes him want to retreat, to stew, to burn in anger at what excuse for a life he'd been given and what horrible luck he'd cursed upon himself to constantly lose, lie, lose some more, lie harder, try to be normal and hope someday, something or someone would be left.

But it's exactly that reason he knows he can;t die yet. He can't. If anything, he has his pride, and he would rather lie his way into stability than let himself be buried under depression. He has to try, he HAS to try, else what good is his own survival? What is it worth?? It hurts, writhing at him like the flame of a furnace, but it's a heat that fuels him. Not to feel better, but to try, even if it means seclusion, even if it means being lonely. He WILL NOT let himself exist purposelessly.

So he pushes himself up, breaking the water with a choking gasp, every muscle tense in that horrible, horrible familiarity of grinning and bearing it for the sake of the whole.]

[It's like a Coin Flip.]

[There was rage and negativity and limitations.]

[And then there's a flip, and there's another side. Taking control of that positivity, making it yours, a tool for you to manipulate and use.]

[There's a snap back when his head breaks water, a realization, and then there's suddenly a path, a long path.]

[A bad decision, a terrible choice, but could you make it to help a friend? There is rage and pain and hopelessness ahead, things that will consume everything if left unchecked, unhindered.]

[It's a path you could change.]

[Just starts on that purple transportalizer which hums with energy now.]

[There's plenty of hesitancy, tension still strong as he takes in the sudden shift.

But he knows, now, that there isn't an easier path. To pretend that any of this was easy... how much disservice he would be doing in Roxy's name, if that were the case. And as much as he still is pulled into this place, wanting to follow an emotion that feels so achingly familiar... he knows he has priorities. Maybe he's a fool for that. But he knows Roxy, of all people, would understand.

So he pulls himself up out of the water, shaking as much of it off as he can, before making his way back to the transporter.]

[Oh, don't worry Technic.]

[Feelings will only get more familiar. ;3]

[And there it sits, waiting to be used.]
