No, it probably would just make everything even more awkward, especially if he says something when he hasn't even had the time to sit down and think about it. He has to be sure of it before he says anything.]
...I need some time to think on it, but I'll tell you when I'm ready, okay?
[Actually talking about it is frightening, but he did say he wouldn't run away. Of course that was before he realized this, but the point still stands. He's not going to try to hide from this.]
Again, I promise it isn't anything bad. At least, I don't think it's bad.
I'll leave you to your rest, then; you know where to find me, should you need anything. ...And I really do appreciate your willingness to stay here for the time being.

[...Wesker, you can't just.]
no subject
W-Well, I don't really have an explanation for it, unfortunately!
[He's so red right now, someone save him.]
no subject
I'm not asking for an explanation - I was simply noticing it, that's all.
no subject
[g o d]
no subject
There "isn't much"...?
[Implying there's something at all?]
no subject
No, I mean... There isn't anything to say about it at all!
[He's just going to slowly die of embarrassment if you don't mind, thanks!!!]
no subject
[Oh, this is precious.]
no subject
[He says, while being very obviously flustered.]
no subject
Really. We're both adults, it isn't as though you have anything to be ashamed of.
[He usually doesn't get a chance to pick on you, so.]
no subject
[Too bad it's difficult to believe that!!]
Of course there's nothing to be ashamed of! It's silly to think I would be ashamed in the first place!
[This is absolutely not working.]
no subject
Is there something you're not telling me?
[You are being Weird and Suspicious, Jaeger.]
no subject
[oh god. is he going to actually have to talk about this after just now realizing it? oh man.]
no subject
[...Yep.]
no subject
W-Well, it's... It's difficult to talk about it...
[just let him die of embarrassment, that'll be easier...]
no subject
You know I'll listen to whatever it is you have to say.
no subject
Jaeger hesitates for a moment before shaking his head.]
It's nothing bad, it's just something I realized suddenly. I promise, it's not a bad thing! But it is difficult to talk about.
no subject
...I see.
[He'll step away a bit more, then; it isn't a cold gesture, just something that he feels he should be doing - it's awkward, for the time being.]
no subject

[...oh god what if wesker thinks it's bad.]
no subject
[That response is immediate; there's no hesitation behind it, and it doesn't seem to be covering for any sort of disbelieve.
If Jaeger says that it isn't bad, then he's willing to try to believe that much.]
Take all the time you need - I'll be here, should you want to talk about it.
no subject
[That helps do away with the last of the embarrassment and Jaeger smiles. It's not forced or overly flippant like he usually gets.]
Goodness, that was a bit embarrassing. You'll have to forgive me for overreacting like that!
no subject
[He pauses for a moment, though.]
Does this have to do with your memories at all, or something else...?
no subject
It doesn't have anything to do with my memories, no. It doesn't have anything to do with Retrospec at all.
no subject
[That goes a long way toward relaxing him, visibly so.]
While I suppose I shouldn't have asked, I imagine you can see where I found it somewhat prudent to verify that much.
no subject
no subject
[It's fine, really.]
I'll leave you to your rest, then; you know where to find me, should you need anything. ...And I really do appreciate your willingness to stay here for the time being.
