"I missed you too. A lot. I wanted - more than anything - kept thinking about what my brother would have done so you didn't nearly die and no one could push us around -"
"He would've, you know. Even I could've if I thought about it. I was just being stupid."
"I think - I would've expected him to just try to get us disentangled. But you know him better than I do."
"You don't need to be sorry. - whenever you say sorry I'm scared you think you did something wrong."
"Didn't mean to - insult your brother by implication. Don't want to do anything to make you sadder, right now - want to be able to make you happier, if not actually happy - "
"Yeah. But -"
Sigh. "Uh, you want me to be happy and I want you to be happy and trying to be careful all the time not to say anything that might make me sad sounds really scary and hard."
" - not really, I haven't. I wandered around exploring and mostly ignoring my court before I met you and I plan to do it with you. I nearly died, and it was very bad, but it wasn't your fault, and it's not - permanent - it's a thing that happened and won't happen again -"
"Okay." Sigh.
"I wish I could find words that could fix everything but I think I might just need you to - stay. For a long time."
"I think to have you be mine again - in my head, I mean, I know you'll still obey me when I don't have any claim to it - I need to take care of you for a long time and - probably more than that, but definitely that."
Nodnod. "That makes sense.
" - can you - tell me how you'll take care of me - "
"Just, you know, take you places and show you cool things and make sure you get enough to eat and hold you and kiss you and - not get upset by things and not act like I might leave -"
"This place has lots of people and they've changed the land more than people in your world. But there's still lots of wilderness and some of it's very pretty. We can go exploring. And I'll hold you and make sure you get enough food and tell you I love you."
"Yeah, we'll have to think about the phrasing. But I gotta promise to stay or you'll be scared forever I won't."
