never taught me how to drown

Halo is gentle. Halo is nothing if not gentle, if not close, if not here. A breath away from her best friend, and she can feel, to an extent, all of the things that he's feeling. His words weigh heavily on her chest, and she softly reaches out. Reaches for a paw, reaches to touch, to hold. Comfort. She needs to comfort him. "What he wanted for you isn't important, it's not his life to live. It's yours." The words are quiet, tender, but fierce. If she could keep Mort safe from his feelings, from Seer's feelings, for this moment... she would try.

Hikaru was staying in Valta. Her heart breaks for him. Halo wraps close to Mort's shoulder, the delicate creature offering the tightest hug she can. Dwarfed in his presence, yet she holds tightly to him. To have someone she loved so immensely question if he was hard to love... that's the biggest heartbreak of all. "The right people won't find you hard to love." Her tone is fierce, protective. She would keep him safe, even if the thing she was keeping him safe from was more heartbreak. "You are not hard for me to love." Plied with strong liquor, a secret that Halo has kept close to her chest has slipped into the open. She doesn't realize the gravity, not yet. Not right now. For now, all she can do is comfort him like he's the most important thing in her world... because he is.
