"Good. I want to." A little shudder through him, relief; he'd been truly unsure of what Boober would say. Sighing, he looked up toward the door.

"I don't know what the others are gonna say. I don't even know how to.. begin to tell them. I might... need to go to the- the old kingdom by myself anyway, just in case it isn't safe."

He was quiet, then looked around at Boober and, without another moment's hesitation, wrapped him up in a tight hug. "...Thanks." He couldn't even word why behind that, as much as he knew. It was too complicated, but he knew Boober would know, too.
