LU 194 - Izzy 2

Izzy and Rox awake from their slumber and begin to discuss their backgrounds. They discuss their childhood stories of their traumas instead of learning more about vulpine history. Rox starts off with him wandering off into caves and eating glow berries and when returning to his home, his parents were gone.
Izzy says her story of an earthquake that destroyed her house and being taken in by a couple with her mother, a woman named Delores and a man who only is seen when eating dinner. Rox questions if that's what she only wanted to hear, Izzy says yes that she just wanted someone else like her (being a vulpine) to stick around.
She wants him to stay with her so she could have another body in her home as her son, Karu, has left the den. Rox isn’t so sure about it as he has grown used to his original cave. She assures him that he can visit and bring his fishy friends over. 
Again they head to sleep and Izzy traps Rox in a mini cell. He awakens confused and questions her reasoning. She says she doesn’t want him to leave, leaving out how lonely she is. That: 
“This was the only way to make you stay."
Rox says he will stay and be a son to her, as she brought it up earlier. He agrees to stay and Izzy makes a room for him. While she does, Rox attempts to escape and Izzy finds out.
Reluctantly she trusts him and lets him out, showing him to his room. They leave and attempt a game of hide and seek to pass the time.
Another rest session and Izzy wakes up in the middle of the night and goes to Rox’s room to check on him. He isn’t there.
"Dang it."
She walks out and looks for him, searching around and finding him on a tree. 
“ROX! There you are, I was scared.”
Rox was sad and told her he thought of escaping, but couldn't go through with it. He recalls the story from earlier, worrying about his parents' love for him, saying that he was in blame for why they left him behind. Izzy reassures him he is not to blame and that she will be by his side, saying how his parents must’ve had good reason to leave.
They sit under the moon, as Izzy hugs him to calm him down from the outburst and fright of his parents leaving him behind.
