[He'd give his shoulder a reassuring squeeze if he could, but as it is he just smiles wryly at him. He wants to be more reassuring than he thinks he is, for Nesso's sake.]
But we'll find our way back, and you'll see her again.
[His shoulder is covered in body glitter right now anyway, so it's for the best. But he appreciates Elza's calm, his tone, that smile. He'll take what reassurance he can from it.]
We have to. For Fiona, but... Weblin is our home as well. We all need to find the way back to where we belong.
[Elza you are really a force for good in his life right now, so ignore that shoulder shh it's fine. He takes another breath to steady himself, ducking his head, grateful.]
We will. I'll try to keep my faith in that.
[Elza being here to talk about it is helpful.] Thank you, Elza.
[Elza seems to soften at the thanks, shaking his head slightly. This is what he does. He's here if Nesso needs him... that's what he wants to do all of the time. He's aware that he doesn't have much driving him in life other than his determination to be of help for Nesso, but for now that's not a true problem.]
You're welcome, Nesso. You coming back soon? Maybe we can go out, have a look around if you want and then grab a drink.
[The first is to reassure him, the second... to reassure him more.]

[Okay. Deep breath. Elza is right. Thank heavens for Elza.]
You're right. I'm sure you're right. But even seeing her face... this is all such a mess, Elza.

Of course. [He brings his fist to his chest in a respectful gesture.] We will find a way back.

All right. And yes. I'll be on my way soon. We can do that, if you're willing. I'd appreciate it.
[Looking. Drinking. Both those things. Especially the latter once it becomes clear that the former will not turn out to be fruitful.]
