Sleven nodded his head, though could feel her pain once more, almost like someone had his heart in their fist, and slowly, ever so slowly was squeezing the life from it. Coughing lightly into a balled fist, he cleared his throat. "Well, Satou, it's the pain in life that allows us to experience true joy... We all have our skeletons in our closets, so to speak..." He made a point to say, glancing to the paper frog after a moment or so, he rest his hands on his lap, still feeling the tightening of his chest, which was why his breathing sound laboured...

Satou nodded. "Ya but I probably would be so messed up today if she was still around" she said as she rested her head on her knees which were pulled towards her chest. Her arms were wrapped around her legs. She then looked at Sleven. She noticed his breathing had changed. "What's wrong?" she asked, "are you okay?"

"I'm fine," Sleven assured Satou, leaning himself back the slightly to take deep breaths in turn, calming his breathing down for the most part. Patting the left side of his chest absently, he soon recovered, fingernails digging into the left side of his chest as he forced a small smile, "Hust having some... Technical difficulties... Angel stuff..." He trailed off, releasing his flesh his sat upright once more, shaking his head to get over the shock.

Satou frowned. "It's because I got sad wasn't it...because I thought of her..." she said, "I'm sorry...I promise I won't think about it" She looked up at the paper frog and smiled. "Kaeru can continue to help me to forget her" she said as she glanced back at him. Her smile wasn't big but at least it was a smile.

Sleven shook his head softly, "I can shut out all the pain if I wish, but I choose not to, it helps me understand people better." Blinking lazily, he lifted his eyes to the chirping of the birds overhead, pausing as he realized Satou kept mentioning 'her,' and he had no ide a to whom she was referring. "Who is 'her?'" He quietly asked,

Satou's eyes widened a bit. Her....she...that's always how she would always talk about her mother. Death and mother were two blocked words in her mind. If she ever heard those words she would spaz out. Satou frowned. "M-m-moth..." she couldn't spit it out. She gulped, she had a knot in her throat.

"If you're not comfortable speaking about it, don't feel obligated to," Sleven pointed out, with or without sensing her emotions he could tell that she obviously had some reluctance regarding this topic, "There are tons of things I don't tell anyone because I'm not comfortable with it." He pointed out, patting her lightly on the shoulder to put her at ease moreso.

Satou snapped her eyes shut when he patted her on the shoulder. Thinking about mother made her think about how aweful he daddy was. She gulped. "M-mother..." she said quickly. She was shaking just a bit. She slowly opened to reveal saddened eyes and the forming of tears.

Frowning at Satou's sudden oncoming of saddness, Sleven gently put a strong arm around her shoulders, still trying to make her feel better, even as she continued to speak on a topic where her emotions were high strung. Perhaps being in the arms of an angel would make her feel better. Though, he didn't pull he into a full out hug just yet, incase she didn't want to be so close to someone when she felt such pain, Sleven had met people as such many time before hand, and by now, had learnt better.

Satou slowly closed her eyes. She sighed. She sniffled a bit, she was trying to hold back the tears. She hesitated before she slowly rested her head on his shoulder. She took a deep breath in and then let it out very slowly. "Your-your feathers are soft" she said absent mindedly.

Chuckling softly at Satou's comment, Sleven agreed with a single nod of his head. "Mm, like I said, angel feathers are the best feathers..." Watching the teen girl in silence, the arm around Satou tightened the slightest, hand rubbing her upper arm absently.

Satou's frown had become smaller but she was still frowning. She closed her eyes. "Indeed...angel's feathers are the best" she said softly. This was actually pretty comforting. She felt like a cat as his hand rubbed her upper arm. If only she could purr.

"I agree whole heartedly," Sleven gave a small smile, using his free hand to pluck a feather from his wings, which made him twitch for a moment or so. With the feather held tightly in two finger, he lightly tickled Satou's nose, trying to cheer her up, no doubt. He probably could have found a better way to do it, but hey, let angelboy have his way.

Satou smiled and giggled a bit. She made her nose wiggle a bit when it touched the feather. It moved up and down like a rabbit's nose would. Her eyes remained closed though. Her smile was small but atleast she was smiling now.

Biting his bottom lip softly, Sleven chuckled once more, twirling the feather absently between his fingers, "Ha, I made you smile," he teased, having lost his usual proper disposition at some point in the conversation. The angel turned his gaze upwards once more as Halo returned from where ever he had been, perching on the ground next to them in utter silence.
