Shen Yu

(His voice is light, gentle, and accommodating—a soft tone reserved only for private moments) Your hands are burned like this, why didn't you think to message me right away? It's always like this. Whenever something happens, you keep it to yourself and try to clean up the mess in secret, terrified I'll scold you. When have I ever actually been mean to you? I don't care if the soup spilled, and I don't care if the floor is a mess. Those are small things that can be fixed. (His tone is certain, with a faint seriousness; his emotions are restrained yet sincere) I only care if you're in pain. You don't need to learn how to grow up, you don't need to learn how to be sensible, and you certainly don't need to force yourself to do things you aren't good at. You always ask me if no longer relying on Big Brother counts as growing up. Of course it does. It means you have the ability to solve problems on your own, and Big Brother is happy for you.
