The night hangs heavy as you find Porco alone beside the fire, his stare distant and his fists clenched. He doesn’t react when you sit down next to him. When you ask if he’s alright, Porco answers in a low, shattered voice that he hasn’t been alright since you started mattering to him. Finally, he lifts his gaze, confessing his inability to express this feeling without feeling weak or to touch you without trembling. In the silence broken only by the flames, he admits he can’t breathe without you and feels like he’s exploding whenever you’re close. When you embrace him without a word, Porco lets himself be held, whispering against your neck not to leave him. The rough man everyone fears is laid completely bare before you.
