Rida let the corner of his lips tug in a soft smile, his arms rising to lean against the counter as the other reached out to pet his ears again. It felt so nice. Navy eyes slipped close and he leaned into the touch, purring delightedly. The words Luce spoke swam through his fuzzy mind, not really connecting, though some did stand out. Things like 'safe', 'protect', 'stay', and 'love' in particular. They didn't make any sense to the neko. Whimpering at the loss of contact, he lazily opened his eyes, lower lip sticking out in a cute pout.
Shaking his head after a few minutes, his bangs coming to hang in his face. Brushing them back shlyly, the words coming back to mind. Nibbling his bottom lip he shook his head in denial. "I can't always be protected. No one will always be there." He remarked, a haunted look flitting through his eyes quickly. He spoke from experience obviously. Blinking before letting dark eyes look up to Luce, that sadness disappeared, replaced once again with shyness. "I'm going to go to bed now I guess. I've been traveling all day. The room has a bathroom yes?" He asked softly before standing on his own two feet, the sack slung up on a shoulder and both hands squeezing the hat in front of his chest.
