Dusk of course blushes at the finger that continues to trace his lips, watching her. He also found he quite liked it when she nestled under his chin like that. He swallows again, looking off. "I suppose so, it only does that when I don't have need for my staff or orb..." He looked back to her after he'd placed the circlet on her forehead.
"The spell shouldn't need repairing but...knowing my magic, your hair still might fall into your face sometimes..." he watches her quietly. He took in a soft breath as she stared into his eyes, it seemed to make him feel odd when she did that. "...you're welcome..." he looks down. "we should see to Twilight..." his hands remove themselves from the small of her back.

Reynee smiled, playing with the lavendar jewel for a moment as she listened to Dusk explain about her hair. "I don't mind that, it's inevitable for my hair to fall in my face sometimes. But this is still one of the sweetest things you've done for me, Dusk..." She chirped, petting his cheek and smirking. Wait...had he just?
"You said it again, sweetie~!" Reynee purred even more, pausing for a moment at his last comment and frowning when she was let go. Oh that's right, Twilight needed to be checked on. The cat nodded and stepped around Dusk, grabbing his hand as she passed him and resting her head back on his shoulder. "Then lets go before we get distracted again."

Dusk nodded shyly, blushing gently and watching her as she pet his cheek. He raises an eyebrow at the smirk. Hmm? What was that about? He blushes again as she points out his little speech problem, as it seemed to be then blushes more at the nickname. S-Sweetie?..Ahh...He swallows a bit.
He blushes at the thought of such...distractions and blinks at their hands, following Reynee quietly, glancing to her head on his shoulder, feeling odd. He swallows but allows her to do so, walking to Twilight's room.

The whole sweetie thing was an honest slip. Reynee knew full well that she was being rather...clingy, but she couldn't help it! She'd grown so addicted to just...touching Dusk! He was like a drug! Wait, no. Drugs weren't as pleasing in this sense, he was as addictive as...chocolate! "...Something wrong? You've been blushing a lot today..." The cat pointed out, looking very calm when she looked up at Dusk. When they arrived to Twilight's room, she let go of him just to open the door, allowing Dusk to enter the room before her and carefully closing the door with her foot behind her. Damn, this cookie jar really was getting heavy now. The cat set the jar down on the night stand and looked at her face in the mirror, a gentle smile spreading across her lips as she toyed with the circlet a bit. It really was beautiful.
"Wow, Dusk...this is so beautiful..." Reynee murmured, turning back to him.

Dusk shifted nervously, rubbing at his cheeks at her mention of him blushing, looking away. Why the hell was he blushing?? He glances to Reynee again, moving into the room and looking to Twilight, walking over to the bed and sitting down on the chair next to it, reaching to brush hair from the boy's face. "...so..you like it then...?"
Dusk watches Twilight worriedly. Why wasn't he waking up? He didn't like this, it worried him a lot. He sighs gently and shifts to wet Twilight's cloth again, laying it over his forehead again. "...if...if anything happens to him..." He sighs, head dropping to lay his face in his hands, "...I'll never forgive myself..."

"Like it? I love it! This is the most beautiful thing anyone has ever given me!" Reynee smiled, walking over to Dusk and sitting down beside him. It wasn't going to Dusk any good if he just kept beating himself up like this! The cat turned back to look at Twilight, tenderly lifting his burnt hand and rubbing at it gently. The poor boy...when was he going to wake up?
"He'll be fine, Dusk...just give him a little time. Accidents happen...were you up all night taking care of him?" The last part was a bit random, but Reynee didn't want Dusk collapsing from exhaustion from something that could have been prevented. He had looked as if he was going to collapse quite a few times...

Dusk nodded, reaching to stroke his cheek before shifting, looking to her. "...I'm glad you like it..." He looks back to Reynee, looking at her as she sat next to him. He pauses before reaching for her hand, looking back at Dusk, swallowing gently. He didn't want to worry her by saying he'd gotten no sleep
"...I just don't want anything to happen to him..." Dusk sighs gently, reaching over to place his hand over Twilight's chest, a small glow appearing before they could see into the fox boy's chest. It was very different than it should normally be. "....he got in the way of two people fighting and was...badly injured with a knife...I happened to be in the town and...he helped me, gave me some food so I felt, bothered by it and...I was able to create some temporary organs for him..." He takes a breath. "...I'm not sure if the tree's spell affected the spell I placed on them..." He glances to her gently to see her reaction. "He woke, alive, but lost his memory...he acts about 4 or 5 but he's around 10..."

Reynee blinked, a bit startled that Dusk had been the one to take her hand this time. Usually it was her that had to make a move! And she wasn't that bold to begin with! The cat's brow furrowed in confusion when Dusk began explaining his and Twilight's history together, her eyes turning to Twilight and gasping softly. That wasn't normal at all!
"...Wow...I...I had no idea, Dusk..." Reynee murmured with a frown, her ears lowering against her hair. The cat just sat there in silence, staring at Twilight before turning back to Dusk and hugging him gently. "I'm really sorry...I'm sure he'll be just fine though, just...think positively for a little while. But despite all that, I'm sure Twilight wouldn't be happy knowing you hurt yourself by not sleeping...I'll watch him for you for a little while, meanwhile you get some sleep. Please?" She really hoped Dusk would say yes, it wouldn't matter how much he cared if he just suddenly collapsed!

Dusk didn't notice the gasp as he held her hand, just holding it and staring down at the boy as he drew his hand away, the glowing stopping. He stares at him silently for a few moments before swallowing hard. He runs a hand through his hair. His hands were trembling again and he took a deep breath. "...he thinks...when he woke up...he thought I was his father..." He bit his lip quietly. "..I didn't know what to do, he woke up, scared, trembling, not remembering a thing...how....how could I tell him he didn't have any family? " He barely was able to hold back a sob as tears start to build up, looking away quickly and placing a hand over his mouth. He didn't want Reynee to see

Reynee blinked, looking down at the hand holding hers when she felt it begin to shake. "Oh Dusk..." She whispered softly, holding the hand with both of hers and bringing it up to her face to rub her cheek against it. Reynee felt as if nothing she said would get through to Dusk at this point...she might as well have been babbling to him about nothing! The cat bit her lip at the thought, looking up at Dusk with a deep frown and sighing, turning her eyes back to Twilight. "...You...really should tell him the truth...not now or anything...but...when he's able to understand...he deserves to know, Dusk." Reynee murmured softly, kissing his hand and quickly letting go of it to hug Dusk.
"I don't mind seeing you cry, in fact I want to...let it out, okay? Please...just...don't hold it in..." The cat whispered, petting Dusk's hair.

Dusk did hear Reynee, he did but, he felt compelled to tell her, to explain to someone, so someone knew, what he felt. He struggled to keep from crying, he really didn't want to cry in front of Reynee. He closes his eyes as he felt Reynee hug him, sighing gently. He went still for a few moments before turning to bury his face into the girls hair, fingers sliding around her back to hold her closely, taking in a shaking breath.

"I told you I don't want you to hold back, Dusk..." The cat protested quietly, frowning and closing her eyes with a sigh. Reynee fell silent when Dusk held her, rubbing his back to help comfort the boy, perhaps he would listen to her now? There was so much about Dusk that Reynee didn't know, but she was learning things about him so quickly! He was just...opening right up to her wasn't he? The thought made Reynee's heart swell with affection, resting her head against Dusk's and running a hand up through his hair.
"...Will you listen to me now and try to get some sleep? You can lean on me if you'd like, I promise that Twilight will be fine. And maybe you'll feel a bit better after you've gotten some rest?"

Dusk was already halfway there, yawning and trying to hide it as a few tears escaped. "....will you wake me if he wakes up...?" he nuzzled lightly at her hair with a soft sniff, gently taking a breath and smelling her hair. It smelled really nice, calming almost. "...please don't let anyone in...he'll be afraid of anyone else but you when he wakes up..." he sighs tiredly, hugging her closer and just burying his face into her neck gently. He sighs, not knowing where he could get some sleep.

She nodded and smiled, purring softly when Dusk nuzzled against her. He seemed to enjoy it when she purred, so why not make Dusk happy? Reynee wanted to see that smile of his again, Dusk had only smiled once as far as she knew! "Of course I will, don't worry, everything will be fine. No one will come in, and you'll get the sleep you deserve. You're a wonderful guardian for Twilight, Dusk..." The cat murmured lovingly, her purring increasing when she felt his face against her neck. Dusk was really making himself comfortable, wasn't he? Reynee closed her eyes and toyed gently with Dusk's hair, leaning back in her seats without letting him go, opening one eye to watch Twilight silently.
"Wake up soon, Twilight. Dusk needs you..." Reynee whispered quietly, suddenly yawning and closing her eye again. Reynee herself hadn't had much sleep the night before either, so it was inevitable that she would fall asleep as well.

Dusk sniffs softly, sighing a little and just pressing a little more into Reynee, letting the purring lull him to sleep. He barely heard her words but the sound of her voice comforted him as he slipped off into dream land. His trembling stopped a few minutes after this.
Twilight laid as he had before, ears giving twitches now and then but otherwise he just breathed in and out, in and out. After awhile he gave a yawn and rolled to one side, curling up slightly in the covers, nuzzling at the pillow.
