Thanks for having my back, pup. [ He allows his hand to stay against the beat of his heart for just a few more seconds before Roland drops it back to his lap. ] I won't let you give up either. Not a chance. You can count on me.
[ Rannygazoo seems to react well to this declaration too, jumping up in between the two of them to rest in Inigo's arms, forcing the boy to carry him by the waist. But unlike Jumblie's excitement, moving about the ground in loud pitched squeals and laughs, Rannygazoo stays quiet and firm in his hold. ] Well. Would you look at that? Is he trying to tell you something, I wonder?
[ Roland is amused at the sight, but Rannygazoo talks to Inigo and only to Inigo this time around. ]
'Hiiiig. Young traveler, do not fall into melancholy. I will always catch you as you fall. I will protect you.'
[ It seems this is both a reflection of Roland's own feelings on the matter, and Rannygazoo's attempt at an apology. ]
