Re: after

Am I a shepherd right now, Perci...?

[he says it very softly. there is no trap in the words. he's just asking.]

( tenderly, but firmly: )

You don't need to be a shepherd to be my shepherd. You may not hold the staff today, but you did when I arrived, and the days after.

Ah.

[brings Perci's hand to his mouth, not kissing the back of it so much as mumuring against it]

It's good to hear. I do not feel good about abandoning my flock...at fault or no.

Re: after

[terraria]

I wouldn't say this is anywhere near "abandoning" your flock, but... I understand.

Let us protect you now. Rest your head. You can't avoid sleep any more without the staff, after all. You could use a few days of actual rest.

[...breathes out and shuts his eyes, instead of arguing that point

it's true. he is exhausted and he is pretty sure Lily just wants him to stay in one place so they know where he is and don't need to fret over him, anyway.]
