"If ya ever think ya want ta vent--even if ya say ya might not ever do that--ya can come ta me, an' I'll listen ta everythin' ya have ta say be it about yer day, a certain person, or just about yer entire life in general." He kept a small grin on his features as he eyed the Spaniard, keeping his words completely honest; it was the best policy after all, and Antonio also--he needed to hear things like this, especially now.
"Mhm. I really dun't mind. Ya still have a heart--have emotions--an' a few of those emotions, anger, frustration, happiness--all of them can reduce a person ta tears. It's natural and acceptable ta cry. Sometimes it helps ta cry fer a bit. Sometimes ya feel a little better, other times a bit worse. There's nothin' weak about it. Even tha strongest people shed a few tears if somethin' hits close ta home. H-Hm? Special?"
Rubbing the back of his neck lightly, the Turk tried not to flush a bit at this and shook his head. "N-nah. I just... I just dun't mind."

Spain couldn't help but be amazed when Turkey told him he'd actually be willing to listen to him rant and vent. And about anything too. Sure, the Spaniard told that to others all the time, but that didn't mean anyone really told that to him.
To be told that was incredibly amazing.
"I may end up taking you up on that offer." He smiled after a thoughtful pause. "I need someone like you in my life."
The Turk did have a point, though. Even he could pick out a time in his life when someone he thought was invincible broke down and cried. So maybe it was alright to cry sometimes... "You are special though." Now no longer crying, Antonio closed his eyes and took a deep breath, holding up six fingers. "Seis. Six. Six times have I full-out cried in my life." Three fingers were lowered. "Tres, three. Three people have seen me cry out of those six times." One more finger was put down. "Dos, two. Two people have seen me cry not including you. And one of those people isn't even around anymore. So really one now." He looked at Sadik, his eyes showing that everything he was saying was the complete truth, no exaggerations or lies being told. "Out of the many, many, many nations I've met and out of the many I consider my friends, and out of the very few I can say I really trust, only one person who is still around has seen me cry. Aside from them, you are the only other person." He set his hand on the other's shoulder, mirroring the action done to him. "You know as well as I do I don't break down around just anyone, so something about you... Something puts me at ease. You makes me feel relaxed enough around you to open up about my feelings. Which, as you know, I'm not normally inclined to do. That unto itself makes you special."

The Turk had listened to everything the Spaniard had to say, making sure to keep eye contact, made sure to watch the other male's facial expression extra closely (just in case), and pretty much put all of his attention into paying attention, listening, and processing the Spaniard's words in order to have a good grasp on what he had said. Feeling Anton's hand continue to rest on his shoulder made the older brunet smile just a bit. It was good that they were talking through this, really good actually. It seemed that the Spaniard could now allow himself to do things that others may think of as weak or humiliating.
They still had human sides; they weren't emotionless robots after all. His eyes couldn't help but widen briefly when the Spaniard began to talk about him--began to say that the Turk put him at ease somehow, someway. Perhaps it was just his understanding presence? Sadik didn't know himself, but the other man's kind words were making him flush just a bit more than usual. Antonio felt relaxed around him--enough to really open up... It pleased Sadik this though. It was good news. Maybe, with time, he would get better.
"I-I... 'M really glad that ya are openin' up ta me 'cause all I want ta do is help ya. I want ta continue ta talk ta ya and listen when ya need an ear, just someone to talk about anything with.. Someone willin' ta listen! I still dun't think 'm special, but as I said before: 'm glad ta be able ta help."

Antonio felt a little pleased when he saw Turkey blush, though he wasn't sure why.
He didn't dwell too long on that, however. He had more important issues to deal with.
"Well, I don't usually have interesting to say~ I'm not a very interesting person." He laughed (more so at himself), setting his hands behind him and leaning back, stretching a bit. "Life these days is relatively boring in comparison to the past too, in my opinion. Sure, we have zombies prowling around, but I don't usually fight them. I've had to stay inside since I got here for the most part because I can't fight well in the cold." He sighed, laying down on the ground with his hands behind his head. "I get frostbite too easily since I never wear long sleeves. And that's just a pain to recover from." An excited grin grew on his lips as he closed his eyes. "Though now that it's warming up, I can get out more without nearly being thrown into the clinic!" He hated being stuck inside for too long; he got cabin fever almost as easily as he got frostbite. Going out onto the roof was about as much outside as he could get lately, but he couldn't stay outside for long or else he'd get too cold and be forced back inside. That was never fun. "I can't wait for the day when I can go outside in short sleeves again without having a time limit~"

"I think yer interstin'! Ya dun't have ta have anythin' really awesome or cool ta say. Just talk. I used ta talk enough fer two people, but I try not ta since it's not exactly welcome, especially wit Hera, but whatever. I dun't need him. Take now fer example: we're just voicin' our thoughts--nothin' really special there... Hehe. I dun't want ta see ya in my clinic too many times, alright? An' 'm gonna keep tellin' ya that everytime ya come, but sometimes we can't help it."
Sadik frowned at the thought of cold weather, not liking it very much either since he was a Middle Eastern country which meant a LOT of heat a LOT of tha time. "I dun't work very well in cold weather either."

A small blush came over the Spaniard's cheeks and he couldn't help but look away a bit bashful. "I'm really not... Pero, gracias~." He scratched his cheek and grinned a bit. "And having normal conversation like this is nice. Relaxing, even. I like it." he took a deep breath, thinking back to the days when he would be laying out on his roof or in the fields by his house, just taking a nap in the sun, maybe chatting with one of his citizens our tourists that wandered by. He missed those days and certainly missed his hope. He had to wonder what happened to his fields, his house, his entire nation since he left. It had been months since he saw Europe and was hoping at the very least that people started rebuilding a bit to keep hope.
"Mm... I just can't be in the cold in general anymore. I used to be able to, but nowadays I can't. Ah, the drawbacks of being a warm-blooded nation." He laughed a bit, still looking at the positives. "Though it does mean that when it does become warm again, we'll work twice as well as some of the other nations!"
