Persy shook her head. "Don't apologise Morph. It's really not your fault. I understand." she said quietly. "I know...I know I didn't may as much attention to you as I should have. I wish I had now but it was difficult...after all your my first litter of kittens. I didn't even know how to take care of one of you and then there were 5 of you and then Nyx was sick and I'm sorry Morph...I really am." she said quietly hugging the kitten tightly. "You have nothing to apologise for my darling..."

Morph smiled and hugged his mother back. “Well you’re the first mother I’ve ever had so I guess we have to forgive each other, huh?” He giggled quietly and gave his mother, his only mother, another hug. Pulling away gently, he smiled again and went to fetch his guitar. Pulling it out of its case, he sat back down and tilted the guitar slightly to show her the designs on it. “Do you like it? Mirelle got it for me.” He smiled and settled in, calming his breathing and mentally preparing himself to play. He wasn’t quite sure what he’d play for her, but then again, that rarely stopped his from playing.

Persy smiled softly. "As long as you can forgive me Morph." she said quietly. It was difficult to see her son growing up without him by her side, and being perfectly alright but that was the way things turned out it seemed and there was nothing that Persy could do about it now. She watched him, smiling. "It's very nice." she said with a smile. "Really very beautiful." she added. She waited patiently for Morph to get ready to play for her, excited to hear his music.

“Always.” Morph smiled gently. “You’re my mother.” Then he winked, the smile blooming to a happy grin. Closing his eyes, he hummed quietly, his baritone voice gently filling the quiet room. Strumming to match it, he began slowly a meeting of two different sounds. It began a little uncertainly, low notes moving about in the air, testing. Then a joyful note, a spark that was followed by a procession of more sounds, moving though the full range. He thought over this afternoon; the uncertainty and sadness and loss, but in his heart he found love. Love for his mother, his family, for Ara. Love that heals hurts, that gets you out of bed every morning with just a little hope for the day, that takes you to bed with a smile. Eyes closed, a smile shone though Morph’s serene features as he played. Not everything was right in the world, but in the ebb and flow of life, things became right. And that was life. And that is love.

Persy smiled softly, atleast feeling a little better knowing that one of her sons didn't hate her. She sat quite still as Morph played, watching him intently. She could see him move with the music, the images forming in his mind. She found it quite sad that she had never known that her own son was this musically gifted. She should have known this about her son. It seemed like these sort of talents the young cat had passed down to her kits, though she had never attempted to use any of these talents herself. She closed her eyes, letting the music flow within her, swaying slightly as she did.

Morph opened his eyes a little and smiled softly as he watched his mother swaying back and forth slightly. He purred quietly, happy he could cheer her up just a little. He always enjoyed the effect his music had on people, and often times he didn’t want to stop; lost in his own thinking and emotions, and the thought of moving the thoughts and feelings of others. He thought of his siblings. Nyx seemed to be doing just fine, and Ishtar would be ok with Valiant. He wondered about Hermes. He never really got to know him that much…and wasn’t there another sister? Something tugged on the edge of his mind, as he tried to remember. There were five kits, his mother had said so. What had happened to her? His fingers still moving across the strings, the melody became uncertain again, and a slight frown creased his brow.

Persy listened to the music. She couldn't help but feel that Morph was displaying his feelings, in a way that could only be described through song. She could hear the love in his heart but she could see, when she had her own eyes closed, her kittens surrounding her, talking to her lovingly and Kierans warm embrace and smell and touch and smile. All of these things were what love meant to the cat. But the tone then changed slightly, worry perhaps. Persy could help but let unhappy images let back into her mind, about her kittens, most of whom had ended up running away and about Kieran, who was lying in a medical bed, in pain and hated her, she was sure.

Morph sighed inwardly, seeing his expression mirrored on his mothers face. This wasn’t what he wanted to happen, to have her upset again. It happened often, whatever he was thinking translated directly to his finger and into his music. Thinking quickly to try and stave off his worries, he wondered if he could find the happy optimism he had moments ago, but it seemed weighed down by too much uncertainty. He wanted to give her comfort, and for that he would not ask about his missing sister. She didn’t need to think about that right now. Placing a hand on the strings, he quieted them and set his guitar on the table. Getting up quietly, he moved over and hugged his mother again, hoping to comfort her a little in the wake of his uncertain ending.
"I'm sorry..." He whispered.

Persy opened her eyes when the music stopped, slightly confused by this. She didn't expect the music to stop, she looked up seeing Morph walking towards her and embracing her. She sat there for a second before hugging the kit back. "No I should be the one who's sorry Morph. I shouldn't have thought about those sort of things...I really wish I could just stop thinking about them for a while, you know." she said softly, hugging him tightly. "I..I can't stop thinking of all the things I've done wrong Morph. Why can't I just put them all out of my mind?" she asked, silent tears trickling down her face as she asked this. She had done so much wrong in her short life that she just couldn't seem to make right anymore.

Morph nodded hugging her back just as tightly. “Don’t apologize for what you think, mom. It’s not like you can stop thinking.” He rocked a little, holding her close again. “But yes… I suppose it would be nice to just forget everything for a while.” He rubbed her back gently in a small circle. “Would it help… to do something about it? Just to do something? Just get out of the house, or…”His voice died in his throat. Why, why, why? Why had all of this happened? In the back of his mind, he knew he was just spiraling back to where he was, he was finding it truly hard to move away from it. He knew this must be how she felt, why she looked so pale.

Persy hugged him back, happy to atleast have a shoulder to cry on but then she shook her head softly. "No I don't think that will work I'm afraid Morph. I've tried it before. Everywhere I go...reminds me of him." she said sadly. It was true. She had brought Kieran to all of her favorite places, infact to any place that she had ever liked ever and now that he seemed to hate her every place reminded her of him. "I'm sorry to be moping and crying on your shoulder love. It's probably the last thing you want."

Morph shook his head slightly and hugged her. "When I came here, I wanted to know the truth, but now I just want you to be happy." He thought quietly, looking around the room. "Would you like it if i stayed with you for a while?" He thought maybe she might like the company, and a shoulder and an ear to listen. Morph figured that Ara would understand and he hoped that she would be alright taking care of things at their new home by herself. Or, maybe Ara could come and stay, too. That was up too Ara, of course, and Mom, but it was an idea. He mused for a while, hugging his mother to him, and wondering what he should do in the days to come. He was playing with the Idea of trying to get in touch with all of his siblings, but he wanted to take care of his mother first.

Persy smiled. "Well atleast you got the truth out of me. If you had come a few days earlier I probably wouldn't have been to talk about it a few weeks ago." she said quietly. She didn't think that she would ever really be happy again, not without her Kieran by her side. He was her rock and her friend and her lover and her savior. He really was everything to her and she was horrified about how much she had taken him for granted until he was gone. "Um...if you'd like to come over tomorrow maybe Morph? That would be nice. I think I need to learn to deal with things myself maybe...or otherwise I may never be able to cope. But I really love your offer my darling." she said softly.

Morph nodded and smiled softly. "I understand. Whatever would help you, Mom." Coming back tomorrow would give him time to talk to Ara and tell her what had happened. It might also give him time to meet Nyx and find out where Hermes might be. Morph was a little hesitant when thinking about meeting Ishtar. He never really interacted with Hermes or Nyx much, but he wondered how Isthar might have changed. setting aside thes thoughts for now, he addressed his mother again. "So I'll come back tomorrow and visit, and you can meet Ara a little later and then come see our house when you feel up to it. Does that sound good?" Morph thought she would prefer to meet Ara when she was a bit calmer and maybe a little more prepared for a visit. He wanted his mother to like Ara and visaversa, and thought he wasn't very worried about their first meeting, he wanted all parties to be comfortable.

Persy nodded, smiling softly. "I would like that a lot Morph." she said quietly. "I think it would probably be best for Ara to wait for a little while before seeing me, I doubt you'd like her to meet me when I'm in such a state." she said with a small laugh. The cat knew that she had really let herself go but she didn't care at the moment. When things got better, she hoped, she would gain more weight and made sure she always looked her best so that she could seem like her normal self again. She couldn't help but find it ever so slightly amusing, in a cruel way, that any of the weight she hadn't shifted after having 5 kittens (which was a good enough ammount) was now completely gone. She had been practicing her fighting a lot though during this time to try and ease stress, which had only decresed her weight more, but she knew when everything got better that she should have her old figure back, something that Kieran has only seen a small part of when they first met. She hoped that he would at least find her more attractive then she had been, which only really mattered if they got back together, which Persy was terrified they wouldn't. "Thank you for coming to visit me Morph. I missed you." she said with a small smile.
