Wing likes to be a light, a beacon, to help lead people toward better things. Even if those are small things, like a smile in the shadow of dark times.

Wing wonders the same about Drift sometimes, beyond the snarling and the punching (attempted) and the sulking.

"No need to apologize. Frustration comes with challenge. But you are one of the strongest, most tenacious people I know, you'll make it through." He offers a small smile, and though humble in size the affection it holds is not the least bit trivial. The gold optics flicker as he edges closer to the berth, realizing this is where he's likely needed more, not fetching more drinking water.

"You know you can always rage at me, when you want to shout into the storm and get an echo back. Sometimes it does help."
