[ things don't get better.
cyno hoped, believed, for two long months that things would look up, but it feels instead as if things between them have only worsened. cyno is patient, gentle, he sleeps on the floor or sofa when tighnari doesn't want to be near him, he brings his new mate plants and books and gifts, cooks for him, tries to understand him, the strange things he says, but cyno is so deeply entrenched in sumeru's ways that it's difficult for him to see and understand tighnari's viewpoints.
still, he tries. he tries, and he tries, and things get worse.
they've gotten into yet another argument that cyno has failed to ameliorate, but rather than shout back, he.. deflates. cyno's broad shoulders sink, his scarlet gaze shifting away, and down. ]
I'm sorry.
[ lifting his hands, cyno scrubs at his face, runs his hands back through his pale hair, and sits himself on the arm of the sofa. ]
I don't.. I can't fix this. I can't be what you want. I'll.. take you back tomorrow. Maybe you can find someone who makes you happier. Someone who can please you.
[ because that's what it all comes down to, with cyno. tighnari says it isn't about him, that it isn't personal, but.. all cyno desperately wants is to please him, to be a good mate. ]
