People thought too much and overreacted and, as a result, became more paranoid or sad than they ought to be. Jay knew what it was like to focus on something in the past, and he knew what it was like to have it completely take over and drag you down to rock bottom. It was one hell of a feeling, one that certainly did nobody any good. He blinked slowly, watching as she tried to brush her obvious emotions off as "nothing". ❝ It sure as hell don't look like nothin'. ❞ He replied, sarcastic in his normal manner although not as biting or harsh in tone. Ellie didn't deserve his blunt attitude.
When she offered him tea, he shook his head and said, ❝ 's alright. I think you'll be needin' it more than me. ❞ Tea was soothing, truth be told, and he had really ought to try more of it even though he was more of a coffee person. "Just missing someone a little more than usual," Hell, wasn't that the truth for a lot of people. In this shithole of a world, it was easier to lose your loved ones. He tended to notice that a lot of people were completely on their own, trying to lead a new life without their families. It was hard. ❝ Oh, ❞ Jay breathed, taking in this information and now trying to think of something to say. He pursed his lips, and looked out the window as well at the powdery snowfall. ❝ Well, we all know the feelin'. ❞ A few moments later, he would add, ❝ Most of us, anyways. ❞ Some people liked it better to be independent.
Hayley had come around to help console the somber woman as well ( thank god ). He didn't consider himself to be the most comforting person to be around. ❝ She's right. ❞ Jay gave a soft nod to Hayley out of acknowledgement. ❝ The best you can do for yourself is try to move on. Things, uh.. won't get better if you don't let 'em. ❞ Jay knew a lot of things, and could provide some depthful insight if needed, but this was a battle he was trying to overcome himself ( believe it or not ). As much as he tried to listen to his own advice and try to suppress the negative feelings that he built up, he slipped sometimes, and he didn't blame Ellie if she did the same.
