[This is a very sweet sentiment and good advice that unfortunately bounces off of Luke like it's hitting a force field, but he smiles anyway, because he is an obnoxious liar.]
I know. [Well! That's true! He does know! And, sincerely--] The same goes for you too.
[Diluc's holding up well, and Luke doesn't think he's lying about his faith--but he also knows that stoicism doesn't mean being emotionless or unburdened.]
[ the way they are both like we will NOT listen to good advice! :) because yeah diluc doesn't like to lean on anyone either :) ]
Of course.
[ but luke is correct in his assessment. despite how exhausting the weekend has been, diluc isn't feigning his composure, and he isn't devoid of emotions, either. it doesn't sit well with him that owner and harley are with them now, or that gregor will most likely be joining them tomorrow.
but, the best they can do is keep their wits about them. one day at a time. ]
[Sometimes letting people know you are sad is... unacceptable...
Luke knows this, though. And while he isn't really a fair person, and would push if he really felt the need to despite digging his heels in when others push him--right now, he thinks it's alright to let it be.

So he just nods, and waves a little.]
I'm heading out--can I get you anything?

diluc shakes his head. ]
I don't need anything at the moment, but thank you.
Take care, Luke.
