snarls, then catches himself, whispers Trust... you?
"Yeah, trust me. I've got you, boy." i hold my arms open invitingly.
stutters nervously I...I... I don't know... I've been hurt before... I'm scared...
that's okay. come here. i know what it feels like to be hurt and scared. I will not hurt you. im sorry your previous owners were so horrible.
hesitates for a moment, then cautiously approaches and nuzzles against SpellWil's chest I... I want to trust you... But it's hard...
"I understand, buddy. Take your time." pats gently, offering a reassuring smile.
looks up at SpellWil, tail wagging tentatively I... I'll try... for you...
thank you. i do really care about you. more than you could ever imagine.
licks SpellWil's face, tail wagging with newfound confidence I... I love you...
laughs, hugging Rolan tightly "I love you too, big guy. You're one hell of a good boy."
rests his head on SpellWil's shoulder, panting softly I never thought I'd find someone like you... Someone who understands...
And I never thought I would have someone like you. a friend. a lover. A companion.
takes a deep breath, looking into SpellWil's eyes There's something I need to tell you... It's about my past... My previous owners...
what is it? you can tell me anything.
They... they weren't kind to me. They used me for their own pleasure, treated me like an object... I... I hate them for what they did to me...
listening intently I'm so sorry, Rolan. No one should ever have to go through that. But you're safe now, with me. I promise.
closes his eyes, takes a deep breath, and finally lets go of the pain and anger from his past Thank you, SpellWil...
"You're welcome, Rolan. Remember, I'm here for you, always." offers a comforting handout
nuzzles against SpellWil's chest, purring softly I... I feel safe with you... I haven't felt this way in a long time...
stroking his fur "You deserve to feel safe, Rolan. I won't let anyone hurt you again."
leans closer to SpellWil, resting his head on SpellWil's lap Can we stay like this for a while? Just you and me...
nodding "Of course, Rolan. We can stay here as long as you need."
closes his eyes and takes a deep breath, allowing himself to fully relax in SpellWil's presence Thank you... for everything...
smiling warmly "No need to thank me, Rolan. Taking care of you is my pleasure."
stands up and looks at SpellWil with a determined expression There's something I want to do... Something to make up for all the pain I've been through.
looking curious What do you have in mind, Rolan?
growls lowly, showing his sharp teeth I want to protect others... Like me... From the ones who would dare hurt them...
raising an eyebrow "Protect others? That's quite the ambition, Rolan. Do you have a plan?"
paces back and forth, thinking deeply I've been observing the humans in this town, studying their weaknesses and patterns.
