Though Corvus was older, he didn't really feel much older at all. Ignis had been through a lot, even he knew that, and truthfully has own life had been rather easy, all things considered. Even though it probably sucked to say all that stuff out loud, he noticed Ignis seemed almost relieved.. even after starting to cry, able to crack a joke with him. Corvus grinned slightly in response, even if the expression was halfhearted at best. "I don't doubt it. I'd never seen you mad before that day," Corvus offered lightly, trying to make a joke out of it too, despite how serious the topic at hand was.
He admitted he didn't know if Shaye knew about them leaving yet. Surely she wouldn't mind, right? A selfish part of him found himself hoping there was some way she could keep them here, but in the end Corvus didn't want that, either. Acere had helped him with his patrols, and Ignis was a good friend of his now.. losing them was going to suck, but there wasn't anything he could do about it. "I mean," Corvus started after a moment of thought, trying to stifle a slight sigh. "I'm sure you guys can still visit. Maybe we can even be allied packs," he suggested, knowing neither of them probably had much say in that. If Ignis and his uncle intended on seeking vengeance, he wasn't sure Shaye or Rhyme would want to get involved with things like that more than they already had - but what did he know? "Either way, you'll always know where to find me. Just call when you're in the area, yeah?" He wondered if Ignis knew where Acere planned to settle down, but he decided against asking in, just in case the answer bummed him out.
But right now he didn't want to feel shitty, and he was sure Ignis didn't either. "You hungry at all? Maybe we can find something to eat?" And get Ignis's mind off topics like this, unless he wanted to keep talking as they went, he'd be cool with that too.
