Ori watches N a moment before standing, shoving his mothering instincts aside, shoving his own emotions welling up from what he's putting the kid through aside, "Kid... She may act tough, but I can see it... She's dying on the inside. She's afraid to hold onto you and afraid to lose you, she wants nothing more to keep you safe, but nothing more than to push you away." He pauses a moment before adding. "Not once has she ever cried in front of us before she met you, but now, she cries into my arms every other night... You hurt her heart more than anything, N dear."

"...What do I do, then...? I hurt her by being close... And hurt her from going away..." The tears that built up began falling. My fists clenched tight, actually digging into my skin and bleeding a little. Trembling. There was a lot of trembling. "I don't want to hurt her, Ori-san! She's my friend! I don't want her to cry ever! Especially if it's my fault..."

Ori, though his expression has yet to change since he whipped it of emotion, is moved and he bites his lip a moment before turning away, "Look kid... Take some time to cool off, let you both be yourselves for a while... The best thing to heal things like this is time... I didn't mean to chase you away kid, but... Like I said, your both too young for what she wants more than anything, your too young to lead a Pride with her."
He shifts his weight as he looks over his shoulder, "Best thing to do is make more friends and let her do the same... So you both have something to fall back on, you'll both need that... Sorry I... I didn't mean to make you cry N."

'I... I still don't exactly know what you're talking about on... well, everything. But I have been making friends... Kiara-chan has been, too..." I sniffle, trying to stifle the tears. I unclench my fists and try to take a deep breath. Now is when the stinging from cutting into my palms hits me. "Ow..." I mutter. Of course, it's not the worst injury I'd received in the last few days.
"...It's okay, Ori-san... Don't worry. I'm not adapted to my emotions, so making me cry isn't too hard... I'm sure it's not as serious as I made it look." Of course, even I knew it was. But it was moreso just an attempt at calming him down. I could tell he was kind of uncomfortable as well.

Ori nods before turning back around, a smile on his face, one that is faked, but its hard to tell so, "Yeah... I meant you two should make friends apart from each other." He then heads for the dear. "If you need to calm down I suggest doing it in here, no need to worry anyone." And with that he slips most of the way out.
"Oh and I promise... Once you figure out what your feeling... You two are allowed to proceed as life has planned," He laughs, real and soft. "Also... If you ever need a parent... Our door is always open, even if its just for something like a hug." Now he completely exits and shuts the door behind him, letting out a shaky breath before he goes on his way.
