time flies when you're crying

His heart had been racing ever since he found the scene of the crime, or one of them anyway. He'd been so unlucky to come across the marks left behind by a wolf he'd never met, but recognized regardless. The scent of her pack was all over the bits of fur left behind, leaving Sverre more than reasonably concerned for the man he'd barely had much time to get to know. Had he been dragged off by this mystery beast as well? Sverre didn't want to wait to find out... maybe he was still out there, needing help, injured, something. Sverre had been searching the grounds around the festival for hours, finding multiple drag marks and trails of blood leading away from the festival.
When he'd searched everywhere at least five times he was out of breath. Walking alongside the wall to use it as support, his tongue hung heavy from his mouth in the warm summer sun. What was warm to him anyway. The last time he had been here, the ship and everything around it had been covered in a thick blanket of snow. Now, the area was almost impossible to recognize if it hadn't been for the wall and the faded ship in the distance.
While he wasn't convinced that Kuroo was safe, he was at least sure the man hadn't been dragged away. He hadn't been so lucky to pick up his scent anywhere through the grounds of and around the festival, but so many others frantically searched that it drowned out anything that wasn't tangible. Had he not opened his eyes however, he probably would've tripped over the mass of a body curled into the wall. Had he not opened his eyes, he also wouldn't have found the very man he was looking for. It felt like his heart lifted and fell at the same time. Excited to see him, but he was a sad sobbing mess, presumably for the woman.
Despite being more than excited to see him, he... frowned. He wasn't good at dealing with emotions, not his own and especially not others, but he understood loss to an extent. He had been scared of loss just five minutes ago, but Kuroo would have to deal with the effects of it. Whether he'd been noticed by the sobbing man or not, Sverre slowly started to lower himself around him in hope that it would comfort him and in turn calm him down.
"Speech!"
