"Cerise." He stood quietly in the doorway of her room. It had lost its color since Red's death - a fitting result for what Fabletown felt. No doubt that Bigby Wolf had felt that same grief, but kept his heart caged well from those feelings. But one's grief could come up in scent alone from this shop. He had checked in with her a couple times a day, but this was worse.
He didn't try to show his presence. His figure was standing quietly in the doorway, eyes glancing over to her with concern. He was a tough man, but he knew to show some compassion in moments where somebody else needed it more than he did. Quietly, he took out his cigarette, leaving it behind in one of the vacant ash bowls by the rounded table.
He took a seat next to her on her bed, hands limp in his lap while taking a sigh. He knew this grief ... and he wished silently that he knew a fix. He was not good with these things.
" ... talk to me," he spoke quietly, head turning to her. "I need you to talk to me. I ... can't have you hide from everybody. Or at least me. I'm here ... and I want to be here. For you."
