"Well, I also did have a lot more time to take a look and actually see what you were. I'm pretty sure if I'd seen you run across a floor I'd have mistaken you for a mouse. Though, I really wouldn't have done anything anyway…" Gabriel chuckled softly. "Though, your past encounters might have been even more terrified if they'd known you're a tinie."
"True, True. They would have tried to hunt my whole-" Sorin cleared his throat, "Tribe…Which they did…" Sorin said sadly, sitting down again. "It's hard being without a tribe. When one tribe loses people It's harder to get food and resources. Obviously for me, It's the worst." Sorin let out a sad chuckle.
Gabriel felt his breath catch in his throat a bit.
"Huma- Gios, can be cruel," the man said softly. "To everyone. I'm sorry that you've had to go through that…" He could only imagine. Where they killed? Or… worse? He'd seen the things people could do to the things they considered lesser, animals less intelligent and bigger than Sorin.
"Is there anyone left? I- I get if you don't want to answer, whether because it hurts or to protect any left…"
Sorin Looked down. He had no words. He just shook his head in sadness. Soin managed to say two words. "Their dead…" And then burst out crying, turning away from Gabriel. "I-I-I tried to help… I just made it worse… They were all killed…" He put his head in his knees.
It hurt, to see how much pain Sorin was in. How much he'd been hurt by humans. Gabriel wanted to help, wanted the man to feel better. He moved his hands without thinking much- he unlocked the lid, reaching in to gently cup Sorin in his hand and lift him out.
"Sh…" Gabriel said softly. He held Sorin to his chest, trying to comfort him. "It's not your fault. Gios- they're the ones who did it to them. It's not your fault…"
Sorin looked up with tears in his eyes, "B-but why would you help me c-calm down? You were acting…Different…" Sorin sighed, "Why are you so nice t-to me? I-I never did anything for you…"
(Damn I'm not used to writing Sad stories. It makes me sad myself 😅)
(Oh bby, I want him to feel better)
(Yeah, I def get that aha)
"You don't have to earn comfort," Gabriel said softly. "You've been hurt so much… and I'm so sorry Gios have done that to you." Gabriel moved one of his fingertips up, gentle as he wiped Sorin's tears away.
(Bump)
Sorin sniffed. "You're right…But that's how us Tinies have to do it…Gain trust… Earn comfort… Ah, you Gio's wouldn't understand…" Sorin sniffed again.
(Sorry! My responses will be later due to my school starting up for me. And Fridays and Saturdays I'm not usually out. And today Ill be going out with friends. Soooo ya. Fun life ya know?)
Gabriel was quiet, still holding Sorin close.
"Well," he spoke finally, "I must admit, I don't. But, you won't have to do those things with me, okay? I'm not going to make you earn anything."
(I get it! Yeah, life can be pretty chaotic)
Soren hugged Gabriel's thumb and smiled. " Well, at least I know I can trust you… I hope…" Soren sighed. "Thank you for helping me…"
"You're welcome…" Gabriel gently moved his thumb against Soren's head, moving to set the tiny back down on the table. At least he wasn't back in the jar.
"Are you feeling a bit better?"
Soren Smiled. "Yes, Yes I do…Thank you again."
(Hhh sorry for the 1 liner. I'm in class rn.)
(It's fine, no worries)
"You're welcome," Gabriel said, offering a smile. He lightly ruffled the tiny's hair, letting his hands fall on the desk next to the tiny.
(EEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WHY IS THIS SO CUTE??????)
(It's g/t fluff fearplay of course it's cute!!!!)
Soren happily sighed. "You're the nicest Gio I've ever met…" Soren smiled and looked at Gabriel's face. "I cant show how grateful I am…" Soren had no more words.
(It's g/t fluff fearplay of course it's cute!!!!)
(Yes)
(ALL THE MORE REASON TO STALK)
(<3)(You're into g/t too?? Why are so many people I know on this site into it too, I'm genuinely surprised)
"I…" Gabriel let out a breath, offering another sweet smile. "There's no need to, really." The man crossed his legs in his seat, humming.
"Ah- wait, are you still hungry?"
Soren looked down at his hands. "Yes, A bit. Thank you for the offer-" He got cut off by a yawn. "And a bit tiered…"
"Oh, you are? So, you'll be heading back to your home soon. Here, we can go into the kitchen and get you something to eat." Gabriel held his hands out, offering a platform for Soren instead of picking him up in a fist.
(I just found that people do tiny cookIng? And it's adorable, everything is tinie sized and I love it-)
(Now all I can see is Gabriel making cookies for Sorin one day for a present and they're Sorin sized)
