--I don't know about close, exactly, but- he understands things better than most.
[He hopes to be close, anyway, however things happen to go; even if they don't work out how he'd like, Ryan does honestly want to help him and enjoys his company.
The comment about gossiping surprises a little bark of a laugh from him, shakes the thoughtful furrow from his brow.]
If you had more of it I'd say I ought to be braiding your hair while we talk, geez... I definitely want you to stay, though. [Ryan ruffles his hair fondly as he adds:] Gossip about what, exactly? Give me a starting point.
This Anders, for one. Tell me about him. How did you meet?
[ Admittedly, his interest is motivated partly by Ryan's and also partly by his own selfish desire to snoop on another recruit. He won't use his knowledge for nefarious purposes, at least.
Ryan's hair is long enough to braid, right? He's gonna look like a cheap 90's rapper after this... ]
