Torin acknowledged the woman's respectful dip of her head and Torin blinked graciously. It was a bit buoying to see her attempt at a smile even if it wasn't as big or natural as it might be for others and he couldn't help but feel he was seeing a little bit of his past self in the woman. Derecho and his children had helped him to loosen up, become a bit more vulnerable... in both directions. "You should do it more often, it makes you seem... warmer. It's comforting." He said, his tone a bit softer but he still gave the woman a wink. He settled on his haunches and chewed on her question. "It's been rough." He admitted. "I haven't had a chance to tell the pack yet but my father passed on a few nights ago..." He dropped his gaze, fighting back the wave of visible grief that tried to roll over him. "To that end I want to thank you for all the work you're putting in." He lifted his gaze, there was pain in his eyes but he was clearly holding back the overwhelming emotion to give Eir a meaningful look. "You've carried more weight than you ought to have for your rank and without much support from me." Talk Think |
