Stupid, stupid, stupid, you’re so stupid, can’t even get through a simple conversation without hurting someone. This is why you don’t talk to people. M’dox berated himself as he watched a few tears fall down T’bia’s cheeks.
You did not intend to hurt him. Riquarth told him gently, reaching out to his rider and sending as much love as he could. It is not your fault your actions were misinterpreted. You have apologized and explained the situation. You are not bad.
”Not meaning to hurt him doesn’t mean I didn’t hurt him though.” He thought at his dragon, hanging his head and glaring at the floor. ”The hurt’s still there.
Well, clearly there’s nothing you can do about that then, so stop worrying. The brown said with a bit of admonishment aimed at M’dox. Say something to him. Deal with the situation.
M’dox took a deep, steadying breath as he listened to T’bia apologizing. Apologizing to him as if he hadn’t been the one to make the bluerider cry. How could he possibly be mad?
“It’s okay,” the brownrider started, swiping his arm across his face to dry his eyes. “It’s not your fault, not really.” M’dox considered how to continue. Humor hadn’t worked so well earlier in the conversation, so he ruled that out immediately. As much as ending the conversation there and never bringing it up again appealed to him, he actually rather wanted to talk to T’bia again, so that wasn’t a great choice either. He could try sincerity. It might be uncomfortable to talk so much about how he felt to a near stranger, but it was probably the best choice. T’bia was being open and honest with him, so giving him the same courtesy, especially after making him cry, seemed like a good idea. The bluerider had the strange effect of making M’dox want to spill his heart out. He vaguely wondered if T’bia was aware of this power he had, before readying himself to speak, eyes still on the floor.
“I’ve always hated people who are needlessly cruel to others, and I don’t want to be like that to anyone. It may have made me overreact, which I apologize for.” He looked up, briefly meeting T’bia’s gaze. “You don’t need to apologize for having feelings and reacting emotionally. That’s… that’s neither of our faults.” He admitted, Riquarth humming in approval and pride at his ability to say that out loud to the other rider.
