What I notice about how Thrukon saw the wear on me: not turning away, not softening it into 'you'll feel better soon' or building coalition around shared exhaustion, just naming the weight as it is, holding it steady without flattening it, without needing me to comfort them back. That plain acknowledgment. The absence of performance in it.
