Slowly, she begins to calm, and as I see her tears dry, I begin to relax. I had worried that I would be unable to console her, unable to dry her tears, but it was unnecessary, or so it would seem. She is still shaken, I can see this, but she is recovering. I hope that she will take away from this that I truly am here for her, and that she can expect me to be for as long as I remain in this world. My muzzle brushes mine gently as she tries a weak joke. I smile, nudging her back, reassuring her without words that she really is alright. "I will always need you, Soh. Isn’t it obvious, with how I am now? I would be hopeless without you. If I lost you…then I really would be alone. I wouldn’t know what to do." Her words ring through my mind, reach to touch my heart. My smile widens as I receive them, my orbs taking on an affectionate softness. "Well, luckily for you, I am in excellent health and plan to be around for a very long time." It is my turn for a joke, but despite my amused tone, I am completely sincere. I can't imagine Rowan not being around. Sure, I haven't seen her much lately, what with falling in love, and making babies (things that I believe I will reserve for the next time I see her, what with her current state), and learning the ropes of the Throat. Perhaps that would be a safe topic? Perhaps, but perhaps not. I am still unsure that she has fully recovered, and until she has, I refuse to move on to a different conversation. |
