I forgive you. I will keep watch while you sleep, if you like.

*Sleeping will probably be good for them, he thinks. They seem like they need the rest. Though he often finds himself believing they need more rest, admittedly.*

Is this comfortable?

*He wants to double check, just in case.*

Alright.

*Carefully, Ingo shuffles so he's lying next to Mokou. He rests an arm around them gently and makes sure they can move closer or further away as they wish.*

Of course. I would like that.

*He gives them a kitty-smile.*

Would you like me to lie down next to you, or would you prefer I stay sitting up?

I hope so.

*He hums softly.*

Ah, if you want to rest, I will keep watch over you. I promise.

I see, I see... I wish I could have met her.

*It's true. She sounds wonderful.*

I am? Can you tell me how so?

*He keeps his voice gentle, understanding. He's curious, but looking after them is his priority.*

She sounds like she is very important to you.

*He assumes that Shi-chan is Shirayuri. That makes sense, right?*

I forgive you.

*He closes his eyes, holding them close. He trusts them, and cares about them. They're so important to him. *

I forgive you.

It does not matter to me if you deserve it or not, I still care about you. You are someone I care about a lot, and nothing is going to change that.

*He holds them close, a little more tightly than before. He's being completely honest.*

(( ooc it keeps happening

I forgive you. I promise. Always will.

*He wishes he could purr. That might make them feel better...*

You mean a lot to me, you know?

I will take pictures of myself and write down things to remind you then. So you can look at them and remember.

*They're so scared right now... He just wants to make sure he's always there for them, that they never have to worry about him leaving them, ever.*

You have been doing great, and I will not leave you, I promise. I will stay with you.

*All he wants to do is convince them that he's going to stay with them, and won't leave them. That hasn't even crossed his mind.*

I forgive you.

*Ingo just holds them gently. Maybe they're a bit too drunk to answer questions. That's ok.*

I will always forgive you.

not refilled my water bottle yet. I would if I had.

*He heard that drinking water and eating something can help with hangovers the next day. He's never drunk alcohol, for personal reasons, so he doesn't know for sure.*

*Ingo holds them close, being as gentle as he can. He wants to make sure they feel safe, feel comfortable. They deserve to be safe, and know they will wake up comfortable and content.*

I have some dried meat with me if you are hungry or get hungry later. I would offer you some water too but I have

Of course I will stay.

*Ingo doesn't mention the claws digging into his skin, it doesn't feel important to him. He sits down, setting Morgan on his lap.*

Is this alright? Are you comfortable like this?

*He shifts his arms to hold them close, gentle and easy to push away if they wanted to.*

I forgive you. Always will.

*Ingo heads over to the comfortable section of the cave, ready to set Mokou down.*

Do you want me to stay with you? And if you do, do you want me to keep holding you or would you prefer I sat nearby where you can see me?

*Ingo continues to hum as he approaches the cave. His voice is soft, and the melody is clearly important to him. Soon enough, he reaches their destination.*

*Ingo begins humming a soft tune. It's clearly something he's heard many times before... He keeps walking slowly as he hums.*

I um, I can hum a song for you? It might help you feel a little better?

*He hopes they reach the cave soon.. being somewhere they feel comfortable in might help.*

(( ooc He's trying to help!!

*Ingo doesn't blame them for crying. He'd probably be crying too in their position.*

Sometimes trying to focus less makes the memories come back I think! It is like... You get too focused on focusing, so that is all your brain thinks about. If you focus less, you can remember more!

*Ingo doesn't know how to help. He keeps walking, holding them close as he does so, trying to think of some kind of way to help.*

U-um... Sometimes when I try and remember things too hard, they completely leave my mind. Maybe that is happening to you.

Maybe if you describe her to me it will help you remember.

*His heart aches for them. He can't imagine how much forgetting what Emmet looks like would hurt, them being identical twins aside.*

I think I understand, yeah.

*Both can be true. Remembering hurts but forgetting hurts more.*

I can listen to you talk about her as much as you like. My memory may not be the best, but maybe I can help you remember her.

*Ingo nods, and pulls a surprisingly large container out of his coat. He pulls a smaller container of dried meat out of it... From the looks of it he has them seperated into portions to be served quickly.*

Here you are! It is not quite enough for a full meal, but it should at least help.

*Ingo holds them a little closer as they sob, reflexively.*

... Does thinking about her hurt? You do not have to tell me if you do not want to, of course.

enough to accept food from me too. That is very understandable!
