Duchess joined them by the fire as Indigo doled out their meal. Sharing a meal together felt right, despite everything Indy felt accomplished? The emotion wasn’t one he often felt used to. But being able to bring Gypsy here, feed her and keep her warm, created a proud feeling in his chest. He watched her eat, realizing too late that too much all at once was going to make her sick, but she naturally slowed herself.

Indy might have stayed there all night, but his attention was drawn from the flames and back to Duchess as she lifted herself from the furs after finishing her own dinner. He leaned into her affection, pressing his forehead against hers as he squeezed his eyes shut. Ears fell to his skull at her words, worse than they had thought. She kissed his cheek and pulled away, telling him that she was heading to the room. ”We’ll be there soon.” He told her as she slipped away and his attention was returned to the little gem curled up by the fire.

Indigo watched as Gypsy slowly settled into her place by the fire. Sweet silvery eyes blinked closed and Indy was sure he saw contentment on her features. Clean, warm, and well fed, likely a better state than she had been in her entire life. The young man should have indulged in the feeling of accomplishment, but he knew how much more work she would need and deserved before she reached a semblance of normalcy. Or found a life that was worth living, instead of being an object… Indy tried not to think too heavily on what Duchess told him.

”Did you get enough to eat?” Indigo asked softly as he lay his huge head on massive paws. Gypsy was so frail and tiny, he still couldn’t comprehend someone abusing the dainty girl, especially not her own father. He’d told himself a million times already that he would do whatever it took to rejuvenate her broken spirit. ”You’ll have food every day, as much as you want. You’ll be warm, no one will lay a paw on you.” He made more promises, hoping that maybe this time they would get through, but he knew that only time and effort would prove him to her. ”What do you think about… everything?” Indigo offered an open ended question as he lay there unmoving, his brilliant blue eyes unable to be pulled away from her delicate features.

Warning: Indigo should be considered a Mature Character.
