Quinn wanted to focus on the good as well, because he needs it to keep going, to keep looking up when it too often feels like there isn't anything left to look up for. Quinn had been feeling down in that way for awhile now, and he had thought that it was only going to get worse with all his conflicting thoughts and feelings, but now he wasn't looking at it that way. He was thinking about how nice it would be to have a friend that he could confide in; someone to talk to through whatever was going on. Whatever he decided to do. To feel safe on doing that, on talking about all of it without feeling the need to hold back in the worry that he mightbe saying the wrong thing, or saying something that would mess up things on deeper levels. He needed the freedom of a friendship more than anything right now.
And Echidna was offering him that, which was like a weight off of his shoulders, because he knew anything more would just open up things for him to fail in it. He was tired in feeling that he would simply fail more, make things worse. It was why he had thought that cutting himself off from emotions might just be what he needed to carry on. To not think about how his actions and words would affect others, because he wouldn't need to care. Yet how long could he really keep all of that up when he knew damn well that he was the sum of his emotions? When his emotions were something that he relied on so heavily throughout his life? Quinn did not know how to be anything else, and when he was cold and cut off; he wasn't the kind of person that he thought anyone would want to be near.
The thoughts are pushed away for now, because he's in a good mood and he doesn't want to twist that all up. Of course Echidna was already getting up, clutching at her clothes and saying that they wouldn't do her any good. Quinn eyes them for a moment, thinking of how he'd ripped at them earlier, but he doesn't offer to get her more, because that should be an easy enough thing for Echidna to do. A quick sizing up of someone and a hunt would fix some clothing issues; it does for him, anyway. Plus, Echidna was soon a jaguar, and he looks at her thoughtfully, listening to the words she was saying about how she hung around here mostly, that if he wanted to hang out he could just drop in. He nods to this, and to when Echidna was talking of catching him later. He had no doubt about that, and he pushes himself from the ground to gather up his own clothing to leave.
