MOTH
"What if who I hoped to be was always me?"
Ears would prick once more as Moth listened to the words that came from the male's mouth, and suddenly she would stop, if only for a moment, as fear gripped at her chest and she let the words echo through her mind, blinking as she tried to grasp onto the words. She would continue her work as she thought, the words flowing through her mind as the pain and fear in her chest gripped her so tightly that she felt something shatter within her in response. Pain and confusion at how Selby could have put himself in so much danger, and how she had cowered back here. Didn't he know how much he meant to her? Of course not, she hadn't said anything, afraid of him leaving or dying after she confessed. She couldn't be mad at him for doing his job, but she was mad at herself for not being there with him, and mad at the Pittian that had attacked him.
Hot tears had begun to form in the corner of her eyes, only daring to fall when his weak words came out from his maw once more, and she would turn away for a moment to clear her thoughts before looking back to him. "I-it's ok, I know, but it'll be better, I'll make it better..." She drifted off for a moment only to speak once more, "I'm going to get you better because I love you Selby, a-and I need you, so I'm going to get you better."
Hopefully a miracle would come soon, and someone would show up to help.
