- NATE -
I don’t want a world
Without pain or loss
Without pain or loss
There's a stretch where he's left alone on the bed, where Sunjata lingers by the door, letting the companions in after them. Nate does what he can to get comfortable, short of actually laying down, and waits, his eyes leaving the attuned in favour of Haai instead, a small amount of surprise in his one eye, in the hesitant rise of his hands.
Try as he might, Nate can't keep his face from crumpling a little as Haai rests her head on his lap. There's a tremble in his lips, and then he's pitching forwards so he can wrap his arms around the griffin's head. "M'sorry... Ek is jammer Haai." He murmurs into her fur, kissing at her head. He stays bent in two for a long while, before rising up slowly, shifting so he's leaning into Sunjata, and patting the bed on the other side of him. It's easy to speak more plainly to her, though the words that leave him are not just for the griffin. "Jy moet beter nie ophou om my lief te hê nie, eh?"

I just want them
