When Kydobi turned back to him, Roan straightened up a bit, his ears perked and attentive. The question he was asked made him wince, but he had promised to answer everything honestly, no matter what. He looked down at his paws for a moment, shuffling them awkwardly and taking a shaky breath inward. He forced back the lump in his throat, resolute in not crying around the Pittians gathered. Finally, he spoke softly to Kydobi, "I... I kind of had a breakdown, back home. I panicked over a nightmare, and I... I shocked some people. Including my mom. I think they're okay, but... I can't..." He looked to the side for a moment, a heavy sigh leaving him, "...I can't face them. Not yet. I didn't want to hurt anybody, but... I felt so awful that I just took off running. I kept going until I collapsed, and I ended up here." He looked down at his paws after his confession, his chest aching slightly.
