I do, yes. Do you not? When I cannot see someone I have enjoyed spending time with, knowing I cannot speak with them as I wish to? Yes, I miss lots of people actually.
Have you never wished to see or speak with someone you have not in a long time?
[Loki has met all sorts of people, and seen many more. He has never met anyone who has never missed someone before.]
[ Fabian thinks about his friends, ever since he's been stuck in this place. About the way he feels about Gorgug now. About the intense longing he's felt for his parents such a long time, even far before he ended up in this place. Back when he was stuck in a house that was far too big for him, all by himself.
There's no reply for a moment. There might be an indication that Fabian is typing, but then the message seems to be erased again before he actually sends it.
Then, yet another moment later-- ]
you're meant to simply assume they are doing well without you
[There are times when Loki is not patient, but this isn't one of them. He genuinely hopes that Fabian is considering his question. It's not impossible, Loki reasons with himself, that Fabian does not truly miss people. That he has a different set of beliefs that has lead to that kind of thought process, but if that is the case, he's curious to know more about it.
And if it isn't, he wants him to know that Loki can be here for him, if he wishes.]
Hopefully that is always the case, but it doesn't mean you can't also miss their presence. I have known for a fact that people I have missed were doing well. It did not stop me from missing them.
