❝Huh.. ? Oh.❞

A mumbled "uhhh" barely louder than a whisper as he's moving to gather himself back up, hand pushing hair out of the way.

❝I should get up and help.❞

Not that it was a problem, helping his father look for stuff when he had been made to put the groceries up from earlier, but... it just felt nice right now. Sitting somewhere familiar without any rush in mind, getting to recall memories. It's that feeling that makes him stop in his efforts, instead brushing away the dirt from the step for her to sit down.

❝He won't die if I stay a little longer. He might get huffy, but Rui is sentimental at heart. Can't yell at me for feeling so myself.❞

Well, he absolutely could- and probably would- but it wouldn't be anything he would take to heart. Maybe a little complaining, but what visit home wasn't filled with those complaints ?

❝Learn.. ?❞

Suppose that could be nice, learning another alongside his other few. But... ah... could the now "normal" him bear to learn without lashing out towards the idea ? Could he live with the mistakes that came alongside it ? Or would he simply destroy whatever new instrument he decided to try like everything else he tried to work with.

❝I don't know, I'm scared of trying now.❞

The first time he had admitted to that feeling of fear in what... a few hundred years now ? Only last uttered when Marius had returned after so long. That fear was born of abandonment, this one was born of himself- and how does one come to cope with such a thing ?

❝I don't know how I would respond to it.❞

It was truly a tragic thing, to have lost control over one's own mind. To only have it in sparse and fleeting moments, only aided in memory by a sea of journals containing memories. Some he wanted to remember clearer, some he wanted to forget entirely, but to do so would be forgetting himself.

❝This?❞

The question soft and partially mumbled from behind the hand that held his face up.

❝It is a memory.❞

Following the trail of mist that swept along the ground from his being laid a tragic scene to most no doubt, but to him was his greatest regret. Foggy depictions of himself and a woman limp in his arms, the night his queen had died. The "woman" wordlessly whispering her final words while the false knight silently wept.

❝I play it time to time. To remember her sacrifice, to commit her last words to memory so they never become a shade of a memory.❞

Hunts were easy, often quick, and a good reliable way to learn about the local area and the people that inhabited it. This one was no exception, being gratefully awarded his bounty and then some, even being offered a room for the night. A kind offer, but one he would not take, opting to linger in the woods as he often did. The woods didn't care about who you are, or what you did within their confines, but could the same be said about those that dwell within them- or even visitors like him?

It was while laying his things out for the night that he felt a presence. Choosing to ignore it at first, believing that it would quickly pass, in his experience throughout the eras very rarely would anyone actually choose to approach someone who looked like him. Something about the height being daunting he had been told... But, when the presence, the eyes on his back, didn't move he would begin to feel a hint of frustration.

❝I don't like being gawked at like some wild animal.❞

Calling out to whoever- whatever- might be there. If it was an animal hopefully that would scare it off, and if it was a being, well maybe they'd get the idea and move on.

Ah, there it was. Not a scolding, but a slightly prodding reminder. The being's shoulder's drooping slightly upon hearing it, yes, that's true. He had been slacking lately, hadn't he? Focusing too much on his pursuit than his "studies" with the other. How could he learn if he wasn't present? Joining his hands together as his eyes drop to the floor, an apologetic- yet slightly nervous- look on his face.

❝I'm sorry. I don't mean to take advantage of your kindness. It's no excuse, I've just been so captivated by my hunger that it hadn't dawned on me.❞

There would always be time for his search, but such a limited amount of time in his desire to learn. To aid, even if sometimes he just hovered around watching.

❝I will make it up to you in some way, you must need something, yes? I can find it, anything, I can procure it.❞

What's he like? What's he like?! Oh, what a perfect question! The being's eyes widen and lighting up at the other's query. Oh, how should he describe his creator? His very heart? His mouth opening then quickly closing once more as he thought on the words to perfectly describe Mercury.

❝He is everything.❞

All encompassing.

❝Smart and dedicated. Honest and responsible. He is the very soul of my being. Never has there been anyone so dedicated and perfect, and never will there be any that best him. Every day I wait and wait for him to return, for him to reawaken, that's why I seek out hearts. They're not for me, when I find one that is close to his perfection he will come back to me. He will be proud of me, I know it. And, he'll accept me- this time truly, entirely.❞
