...

Cam just nodded and moved to limpet back onto him, hugging him tight. She didn't know what was happening... how could she help him? "Maybe we should go talk to your mother," she whispered softly.

...

Camery took his hands and gave him a gentle squeeze once she'd made sure those awful talons had disappeared. God... what was going on? was he not telling her something? That had to have been the case. She sighed and leaned in to press a soft kiss to his lips, and offered a small, slightly nervous smile. "Love you, yeah? We're gonna figure this all out," she promised gently.

...

Cam hugged him tight, her hand trailing up the nape of his neck then neck into his hair in a way she could only hope to be soothing. What was going on? She was still convinced she'd done something to upset him. They had to figure this whole thing out. It could be dangerous, especially with those talons of his... if they came out like that while they were cuddling he could so easily hurt her. She sat back a little, gently patting his shoulder before offering a gentle smile. "Yeah, I think that's a good idea," she whispered as she offered him her light kiss to the head, holding her hand out to him to lead him down there.

...

Camery squeeezed his hand softly as he took it, and wandered along next to him with her shoulder pressing softly against his. She could practically feel his magic radiating off him... and, as powerful as that felt, it was terrifying all the same. She didn't want to think about what could happen if he'd somehow flipped a switch and gotten upset with her. He wasn't aggressive in the slightest, and he'd only really raised his voice at her once or twice, but if his magic took over while he was upset or... something, he could really cause some damage. She let out a soft breath at the thought of it all, although when she saw the man's mother, she offered a happy little smile. "Morning!" She chirped, settling down next to her and dragging Kai along with her. She looked thoughtful for a moment, then shook her head and glanced over at Kai... this definitely seemed like the sort of thing he should say.

...

Cam almost didn't hear what his mother said, far too busy focusing on her husband... watching how his eyes darted around, how he tried to keep himself calm. It seemed almost scary. She stayed quiet, though, waiting for him to say something. This was an issue with him, after all, and they were talking to his mother. Surely nothing could go wrong. She sighed and shook her head, although the second his finger wrapped around hers and sort of stood up and cleared her throat. "Kai's... he's been... his magic is getting stronger. At least, I think so. We were wondering if you'd be able to give us any insight, or... we'll, anything really? Anything that could help? It's not safe and-" she paused and glanced up at Kai, gently wrapping her hand back around his, offering a soft smile. "We just need to try and help," she murmured.
