Dragoncrest Cliffs hold me down before the crash

The playful aura around his sister was like a breath of fresh air; maybe growing up was what he needed to realize that there were more important things to focus on. Of course, this idea hadn't solidified in him yet (nor would it any time soon), but it was there. Bobby made a fake lunge for his sister's tongue, though he stepped back as quickly as he had forward. I don't need you to check on me, he teased, chest puffed out with pride, I'm a man. A manly-man, actually. At least, that's how he saw it.

The next question hit a bit harder than he'd expected because, although it had weighed heavily on his mind, this was the first time anyone had bothered to ask. Bobby cleared his throat and shook his head with a plastered smile, I--you know, I was...I'm just glad that everyone is back. While they were gone, Bobby had disappeared from himself. He hadn't just abandoned his responsibilities and relationships but for a moment, he had genuinely clocked out. Better to just forget that part, though.
