Soliloquy did still have strong feelings for her the problem was he was a selfish man. Yes he had some care and compassion for Isolde, he had after all clarified right away he would not put her life in danger over this mistake but equally he had fled for his own sake rather than staying for hers. One woman couldn't sate him, even if it was Isolde and though the sweet girl deserved better he simply didn't want to give her up. He was certainly not here to officially leave her.
Soliloquy probably hadn't aplogised for anything in his life to be completely honest. Even when he and Scorpion had suffered through their silly little arguments, again mainly due to Soliloquy's selfish behaviour. Somehow they had always simply gotten right back on track. Perhaps magically he expected the same would happen with Isolde now, though he wouldn't actually need to do anything at all but simply be there again for a while. Of course he was mistaken but he was sorely uneducated about truly compassionate actions.
His attempt to explain why here at the orchard had been pathetic and his useless point would receive a similarly useless response. It betrayed nothing of her thoughts and feelings nor gave Soliloquy anything to really comment on. He had recalled correctly though it seemed to be a fact that matter very little in the big picture. Of course it didn't, it was hardly important and hardly something that could redeem him from the way he had treated Isolde.
He would wait before speaking, perhaps anticipating something more or simply trying to work out what he had to do and say now. Never had he found himself in a situation like this one and he wasn't sure how to get himself out of it. "Isolde, will you talk to me? You've been so quiet." He still spoke rather softly, his usual confident air wavering in this uncertain territory. How would Scorpion have dealt with something like this, had he ever had to or was his brother clever enough to avoid getting himself into such horrible messes?
