Broken Boulder the curse of delight singing-sunlight

RUDE TITLE!!!!!

oblivious to alarian's, uh, recent happenings, delight is also looking for him. or, well, keeping an eye out for him. looking is too active of a verb. 

he's frustrated with himself: everything feels so strenuous and just.. not worth it. he wants to reach out to alarian (remembering what he said last time they spoke, their awkward goodbye), he wants to spend time with queenie, he wants to be useful to bracken like he promised he would. but all the want in the world doesn't overcome the firm grasp of lethargy on him, a bone-deep ache he's never felt before. he's felt morose, but not like this. it makes him worry that he's sick with something (and how fitting would that be, the final victim to his own curse) -- but he doesn't dare breath that thought into existence, not with his children days away from birth. 

but, anyway. he's not hard to find (he can manage that much), and when he sees alarian, he takes in his slightly damp appearance with a raised eyebrow, but doesn't comment on it. still not up to quips. "sup," he says instead, offering a fleeting smile.
