Arlo's ears twitched, picking his head up and looking back towards Aesior. It was a complicated feeling, but the ones that were invading his own, pushing the others aside.. His head shook wildly as he tried to fight those feelings. He was worried, but.. why did it feel so intense? Like someone else was inside of his heart, burying and digging themselves deeper with each breath. His teeth grit, and he felt gentle anger bubble in his chest. It was annoying to feel this way, to have his train of thought switched and switched again.

However, Fraggle's small paws on his back made him snap out of it. His head turned, gentle being scooted forward- not far- but he was moved. Arlo blinked. Something like surprise found it's way to his throat, and he swallowed, before looking towards Aesior. "Uh.. right. Um." He padded forward, ignoring what felt like judgement already seeping from Cleopatra, and stood in front of Aesior. Embarrassment flushed over him. "Welcome back.. Aesior. I- we. Missed you."

Arlo grit his teeth, his red eyes adverting away from Aesior's own. He wasn't angry, now, no, he was really trying to ignore the butterflies in his stomach. Why did he feel this way standing this close?
