And trying is all that anyone can do. Glacius has said it time and time again, and will likely have say it again in the future... so for right now, he won't wear the clergyman out with repetition. Instead the ice alien gives a nod and finally decides to loop an arm around his friend despite the cold--they'll be back soon at the apartments anyways, and he's feeling too saddened by this train of conversation to not try and initiate some fort of contact. Regardless of what the future may hold, for now he'll take just have to take solace from the good memories of the day, and from actually having his friend close by. They've come to mean a lot together, and even if that makes this issue a whole lot harder, it's something that the alien wouldn't change for anything.
