He blushes deeply and his heart races, while simultaneously feeling incredibly soft. He melts into the touch and nuzzles gently against G’s hand, letting his eyes close. ‘I almost forgot how wonderful this felt..’ he thought.
He felt his emotions surge again and scrunched up his face, doing his best to shove the emotions down. He took in a deep breath and slowly let it out.
The end of his tail curled and uncurled repeatedly to try and dispel the extra energy of his emotions. His wings extended somewhat, fighting the urge to wrap G up in a tight feathery hug.
“Thank you,” he says meaningfully.

“I love you,” G said, and wished he could say more. I’m sorry. I wish I could have been here. I wish I could have taken you with me.
He settled for just wrapping his other arm around you, gently rubbing your back. It wasn’t anybody’s fault that he’d been on a big case. It wasn’t anybody’s fault that it had required him to go away for so long, or than he hadn’t been able to ask you to come with him. It was dangerous and important, and it was nobody’s fault so that guilty feeling gnawing at his soul could just STOP IT already!
“I love you,” he repeated. “More than anything.” His soul hummed louder again.
