[Very soon, he's going to go resign himself to a corner where he can pretend to be invisible, but Junior's interactions with Dan Heng and Blade have mostly been via glances, so he's going to awkwardly make an attempt at vocalization really quickly.]
I just wanted to say...the two of you look happy together. I think that's wonderful.
Well, Blade's going to be turning his attention towards Junior. ]
...I appreciate it. What you just said.
[ That was extremely awkward. But, Blade doesn't think it's a terrible comment for anyone to make - it's actually, well, kind of sweet? Junior's a good kid. What else does he say? Hmm... ]
It's a little crowded. Hopefully, you can still relax at some point.
[ Blade is going to give a little nod at this, because, well...
It can be overwhelming, given the lack of space, so he agrees. But, then he says the rest, and, taking a look around...he doesn't think he disagrees with that, either. ]
...Even though it's crowded, we're fortunate we got a good group.
Would be great if this place were bigger, but I know it could be worse.
[ There is a slight smile, because he never knows how to accept expressions of gratitude. Though, he does say: ]
Talking with others normally...always requires an immense effort. [ For him. But, he recognizes Junior's similar social awkwardness. ] But, it is not unwelcome. Especially not now.
[ Especially around good company. Even if he isn't the best at conversation, he really doesn't mind it at all. ]
[Junior nods. He tended to hover around both of them as it was, but after what happened to Lili the day before, he seemed reluctant to so much as leave her side.]

I don't know what to do with myself when there are a lot of people around. It's...stifling.
[It's one thing when they were all spread out, in the gardens or even at the carnival. But this was such a confined space.]
But I don't really mind it too much. I like everyone here.

I hope you don't mind.

I don't mind. I have long accepted that we wouldn't be alone. I also don't mind the additional company.
