Sylvan’s face lights up when he sees the approaching Titan.
“Griff! You came!” He’s surprised, and Griff can clearly hear it in his tone. Though the excited is true too. Sylvan just hadn’t expected Griff to ever have the time for him. He doesn’t even think he really deserves considering the past, not that Sylvan would wallow in his mistakes and darkness. Especially when that would distract him from the other Titan’s presence.
Honestly, meeting Serif had been a gift. It brought him from such loneliness he’d been fighting off for centuries. It brought him back to Griff too and so much more. Now, he had plenty of little Guardians to keep him company.
He shoots up from his spot in the moss and grass only to sway and fall back flat on his ass.
“Sorry, been napping here for hours. My legs weren’t ready for that.” He laughs.
It’s a lie. It’s always one, but the last thing he wants is Griff to worry or try to convince him he can’t handle missions or the wilds. Sylvan was fine. He didn’t have Light pool big enough to keep up with Griff anymore or even the resilience he use too. That still wasn’t going to stop him from taking any mission Griff and his clan needed or that the Vanguard pushed off on him.
“So you got my message from earlier, huh?” Griff’s close enough now that Sy can hug and cling to his waist. Which he does, ever eager to nuzzle the Defender’s stomach and dodge any question that might be on Griff’s soft lips.
------------------------------------
The simple truth was that Griff had time to leave his clan because he constantly overworked himself. So really a lot of the members tried to poke and prod so he would take time off for himself and his partners.
Really he could never say no if one of them asked him to.
The forests were as he remembered them, calming and quiet the farther you went out. Three of them preferred living here and honestly the big titan didn’t blame them. The city was densely packed with people and even in the clan building it could feel stifling.
Griff didn’t know exactly where Sy happened to be but his ghost was tracking his and it seemed to be working when he came across him. Watching the other man stumble made him slightly concerned though he knew the bigger guardian was diminished after what had happened.
“Of course.” He answered, “You sent such a convincing message after all.”
He steps closer as Sy clings to him, hands gently playing with the bigger man’s hair as he debates asking about certain things.
“Do you normally nap on the ground?” He finally asks knowing Sy would dodge any pressing questions.
Eventually they would talk about it all but right now he wanted the bigger man’s attention.
