I know.

[He did know. Intellectually, at least, he knew. Not that he thought he needed to care more than he did. He cared so much, so often, that it immobilized him. At least he knew that no one could really see that. And he knew that was his fault. But he was pretty sure that caring more would probably kill him.]

[He shuffled, slightly, and then opened his arms - a silent offer, and one she could easily ignore if she wanted.]

[The hesitation saddens him, and he's about to lower his arms when she finally moved over. He lets out a breath as she hugs him, and he wraps his arms around her shoulders and squeezes back - much more confidently than she had. Physical affection had always managed to get through to him when words could not, so it meant a lot more to him than it probably did to her.]

[He begins to relax, when she hums, and when he finally pulls back from the embrace, his ears are no longer drooping. He holds onto her arms by the shoulders, squeezing slightly.]

I'm sorry. I'm going to do better, Ellana. I will. I'll stop disappointing you all.

I know.

[He didn't, not really. Or at least, he didn't entirely believe it. Even from Ellana. Safe and Happy for everyone else seemed to mean something different for him, but that was hardly new.]

I'm sorry for taking it out on you. You didn't do anything to deserve it, I promise.

It's alright.

[He gives her a small smile - pulling up one side of his face but not the other. It was alright, because he was used to it.

It was alright, because Merrick did far worse.]

I have to get back to latrine duty, but I'll... I'll catch up with you later.

Pretty sure you don't have to thank me for an apology gift, but - you're welcome, Ellana.

[And then without another word, he stole away.]
