[...That answer is probably too enthusiastic, considering everything that's happening, but if he doesn't force himself to be enthusiastic he might just collapse on the spot. This is... exhausting. He knew nothing about this was going to be pleasant, and he knew it was just going to get harder and harder as he got closer to people and they kept dying, but...
He's worried about Xiao.
He's at the beach shortly, jogging up to Xiao and flopping down in the sand next to him. Sand everywhere is just going to be a problem for future Haruka.]
[ The moment Haruka flops down on the sand, Xiao leans over and puts his head on Haruka's shoulder. He closes his eyes.
He's so tired, but he can't sleep.
Xiao nuzzles Haruka's shoulder. For as little as Haruka thinks his presence means, to Xiao, it's everything. Hopefully, this is a week he can go without worrying that someone's going to bludgeon Haruka to death, like they did to Nona. At least they don't need to sacrifice anyone anymore.
At least it's almost over.
Doesn't exactly bode well for their time together, but Xiao thinks they've both had enough of this island. ]
[ A while back, Xiao had told him that his voice reminded him of someone that had saved him, long ago. Hearing the soft, dulcet tones of Haruka's voice make Xiao's eyes feel heavy – not in a way where he's about to cry. This is a moment of peace.
One where he feels like he can finally close his eyes and not worry about what's coming next.
So he does just that, and relaxes in Haruka's hold. The song quells the restlessness within Xiao's heart that's wanting to break free and consume him whole.
No...that will be a battle for tomorrow. For now, he'll find Haruka's hand and hold onto it gently as he dozes off. ]
[Xiao dozing off is better then him being awake, staying in agony, so he doesn't complain about being made into a pillow. He'll lay there until Xiao wakes up, which... hopefully doesn't take very long.]

He’s quiet for a moment, but then he starts softly singing to Xiao, just to break the heavy silence.]
HEY.
