"thank you. I still really like you as well, kydobi, and I can continue to give you the comfort you seek, but for what you cannot give me, I haven't had need of it in a long, long time. this is strange, admitting these things when the last time I did this was eons ago to one now long dead. but i now lead my family lineage, and I am requested to take another once I have found the ability to love again.", they murmur, sensing his reluctance.

it was a silent offer, a silent question that they didn't dare ask, afraid to ask too much of him when they were both unsure of what they truly were to one another. this was going to kill them, honestly. "I wouldnt expect anything from you, kydobi, but would you like to be the one at least in title who stands at my side? we needn't do anything that a couple would do, I can still support you and all."
