He had been so careful, so careful, but he must have pushed it too far in the arena, they must have seen him getting too curious again...
The rage makes his hands shake because the rage is easier to compute than despair, and he doesn't remove his grip from her arms.
"What day is it." He finally snaps. "What day was it, that you last remember? Where was I?"
