[oh, Aerith... She's so full of life and energy and so fond of people but he knows she hides how lonely she sometimes feels. She'd let it slip to him, once or twice, in the past and it makes the fact that in the end, she'd gone on alone, that much more of a spike through his heart. That had been his fault.
Everything that had happened to her after she'd met him had been his fault.
Wanting to apologize - and knowing how pointless words were - he rubbed his head against the side of her hip. It crushed one of the flowers, releasing the scent of sap and perfume strong into the air. She should be alive. She should have a life and a family and ride airships and grow her flowers.
The wolf takes over when the pain threatens to become too much for him, blurring the past, concentrating on the present. She's here. This is now. They have now. That's what matters. So he catches at the handle of her basket with his teeth and gives a light tug. Wanting to draw her back out into the sunlight and flowers. It's where she belongs and he wants to see her happy.
