don't go running

Indigo raced in the direction that Mortis had headed, he didn’t know the full story, he wasn’t sure he wanted to know. What he did know was that he couldn’t change the past, but his brother was hurting and he needed to be there for him. Something had happened between their brothers, otherwise Mort wouldn’t have been crying and Azure wouldn’t have been acting.. the way he had been acting.

Indy loved Azure, but the way he spoke about their brother made his fur stand on end. No one had been able to do that before, he didn’t like it. He didn’t want to feel that way towards his own brother. What could he do though? For now he’d try and help Mortis and hope Aslatiel got to the bottom of things with Azure. ”Mortis?” He called out, his voice almost a whine. ”Will you please come back and eat?” He asked as long legs continued forward. ”Mort?” He called out again as he scaled some heightened roots. ”I love you, Mort. I just wanna help.”

He’d been looking for a long while now, and was visibly deflating. What did he do? What could he do?
