[—Oh, he's still going! No need for Emil to repeat himself in even simpler words, then, because he was about to. Then he shuts up and listens, and it's just Lalli repeating Emil's words back at him, but that's... good, all things considered. They've reached an understanding, and god, it's a huge relief.
Still, he can't believe he really just admitted something as soft and sappy as all that, but if it helps Lalli then it's worth it! He's decided! He gives his wrist a light little squeeze and sort of shifts— going in for the full-body hug-grabbing type stuff was a lot easier when he only had Lalli's facial expressions after the fact to parse how much those are appreciated, but he will restrain himself this time.
Either way, he looks much happier, so Lalli needn't worry about anything he said being weird. Actually, he said all the correct things!!]
Well, lucky for you, I think about you every day! A lot!
[That's cool to say now, yes? Yes. He's relieved enough to act like this is a very cool thing he just said, and not a goofy, soft thing.]
