shyly, he reaches up to take his brother's hand and bring it down between them to hold. kaname works the words up and down in his mind, thinking of the script he'd written and read over time and time again sitting in his phone, but the words are fuzzy. breathe in, breathe out. it won't be too much. will it? it will be, won't it. that's why he's trapped HiMERU like this, so he can't leave or pull away. don't, please. ]
I wanted to thank you. Taka-nii, you've done more for me than you think -- more than I could ever say. And words aren't enough. [ they weren't over the phone, and they could never be in person. ] So I wanted to make you something to show you that, and... how sorry I am, too, for worrying you.
[ especially. now. after everything. there's so much to apologize for. but half of it he can't say, not now and not ever, so that'll do. ]
I've always wanted to be a family with you, and it really feels like we can be here -- even if we'd never grown up together, or ever knew each other. Even if you don't remember me at all. [ it's a sore spot. but. it's fine. his tone is grateful, and despite his words it doesn't hold a bit of the resentment that's hidden in his heart. ] Thank you for treating me like family anyway.
