Moth. Oh God, had he missed Moth. The lion had spent many of the last several days he had been on bedrest just wondering where his beloved sister had disappeared off to, his mind festering with how many awful things could've happened to her. He wasn't about to argue that he missed her even more than Selby – although honestly he thought they both missed her about the same amount – but it still felt awful not having her and her special brand of warm comfort around. He had no idea what Moth had been doing all this time, but whenever he had attempted to go to her house and see her, he had always received no answer, the house seeming cut off from the entire rest of the world even though it was quite close to everybody else. Still, even though searching around the house for her hadn't really yielded any results in the past, Aurum found himself circling around it on his morning walk, stretching his muscles and seeing if anyone needed anything. As he rounded the front of Moth's house, he definitely wasn't expecting to see... well, anything, really. He expected to see the usual dark and strangely grim surroundings he had become unfortunately used to. However, he was stunned when he was instead face to face with none other than Moth, sitting outside of her home seeming... groggy? He wasn't quite sure. Kaito was either there, and the other was definitely mentally noted by the proxy as he rushed over, but he barely spared the feline a glance, his gaze instead focused intensely on Moth in front of him. He seemed to be under the impression that if he tore his eyes away for even a moment, she would disappear again. Once he seemed satisfied that she was real, and not just some figment of his anxious imagination, the lion rumbled softly, "M... Moth? Moth! Oh my god, I've missed you so much... have you been inside of there this whole time? You missed new years!" Aurum's voice seemed to be a mixture of frantic and slightly angry, although his anger wasn't really focused on Moth. Instead it was just all spilling out of him as he rambled, a frown curling at the edges of his muzzle. Part of him wondered if Moth would even notice the bandages that were currently put carefully over the wound in his chest, or if she was too out of it for such a thing.

It wasn't exactly surprising to Aurum that the next to arrive at Moth's little return was Selby, considering he had very much been present for their little gushing of feelings to each other when Selby had first been injured. He glanced sympathetically over at the male, very much able to imagine how he was feeling, before he returned his one eyed gaze to Moth. Part of him wanted to step away and give them some privacy, but a larger and slightly more selfish part of him decided to stay, mainly because he had missed his sister a hell of a lot too.

He watched as Moth's face flicked through several different expressions at once, clearly a little confused over the worry and relief that both Aurum and Selby had in their voices. When Moth spoke up, Aurum found himself pausing, a great deal of different feelings passing through him as well. A soft expression came to his face after a moment, one that seemed to be not quite pity, but definitely something very sad. Moving forward a little bit Aurum pressed his forehead against his sister's shoulder, rumbling softly, "Moth..." He seemed to be at a loss for words for a long moment, struggling with how to explain to his sister how long she had been gone. Eventually he just sighed heavily, his claws digging into the ground beneath him and pushing up dirt, "Moth... you haven't been gone a week. Nobody has seem you in a month. You missed Christmas. And New Year's Eve..." He couldn't imagine the shock Moth must've been feeling, especially if she hadn't even realized how much time had passed, but he needed to be honest. If he just played along to spare her feelings... well, not only would it be lying right to her face, but it probably wouldn't work very well, considering Christmas had passed weeks ago. Hopefully she'd be able to remain somewhat calm despite the circumstances, with both he and Selby here to support her.
