Chord would see no failure in his sisters even without Bass' words of encouragement for the pair of them. All he would see was a tragedy life apparently not full of them enough as of late he stood there silent now though, barely taking in what else was happening around him as his eyes remained fixed upon the still pups. Bass' words would stir him, the mention of his name the real clue that he had to answer now though still the saddened man would remain quiet for a moment a weak nod of his head his only answer. No he didn't want to deal with this really. Bass would already begin to move though and Chord knew he had to follow suit. He was hardly there most of the time for his siblings, he had to do something now.
Picking up one of the pup's carefully praying it would suddenly start moving and it had all been some horrible trick the children had played on them. Of course though so young they knew nothing about pranks and the pup would remain still clearly lifeless. He felt lifeless himself at the moment, mind refusing to comprehend it all though perhaps that was for the best. He'd mindlessly follow his brother's lead placing the pup beside its sibling once more before looking to his brother for what to do next. He just couldn't think right now, it hurt too much.
