Light and dark watch together, hoping that their father will pull through this. Hoping the curse will let him go, that he'll fight it and come back to them.
Akito blinks a little as Jade shifts, before letting a small smile appear on his face. "I'm here, father...we both are..." He can feel the grip his father has on his hand and doesn't let go. He has to bring Jade back to them. They can't lose him again.
Hearing his name brings a little hope to him, hope that maybe soon the curse will wear off. They both blink as Jade mutters fiercely. Promised...that's right, he did...their father promised that he wouldn't leave them alone again. The light curls around his father a little, hoping that he can beat it. "Fight it, father! Don't let it win!" Gold eye locks onto red as they open again, looking up at him. Have to bring him back. Akito can't let him fall to this.
A hand on his cheek now. He leans his head against it a little, a small smile on his face. He knows Jade can beat this. Akito believes in him, with every fibre of his being. The smile that appears on his father's face is only small, but Akito knows that that was what he was waiting for.
It's over.
He doesn't let go of his father's hand as Jade moves to sit up, doesn't let go until his father does, and then arms curl around him. Akito's not hesitant. He throws his arms around Jade, nuzzling at his shoulder. Not crying, he's too relieved that Jade's alright to cry. Instead he feels like singing, utterly relieved. "Father...thank-you. For coming back to me...to us..." he replies softly, just clinging to his father now.
Agito watches on, worried then calm. He trusts his brother. This is what Akito is best at, where his strength is far greater than the dark's. And he's not surprised when the light brings their father back. A small smile appears on his face, but then he lets it grow, into a look of fierce pride. Akito glances it and it makes his mood soar. The shark's never been more proud of his brother, and he's so glad that their father's back. He'll wait, let Jade have a moment with Akito before he speaks. But damnit, he's so proud of them both. Agito loves them both far too much.
