( that's a sobering thought, though if he's honest, not one he hasn't had before. he has considered the fact that sooner or later, the squidge is going to need to stay behind and he's going to have to leave. that's a hard fact to think about, especially considering he realizes how much being left behind hurts. )
I know I will. But... that's a part of him growing up, anything growing up, right? They've gotta learn to make it on their own.
( the mission is to make sure the squidges make it to where they need to go, to grow up to their adult forms. he assumes that when they do, they'll be better able to take care of themselves. it'll be hard saying goodbye. still, what kind of life would they have trapped in Oska?
if this was where they were meant to thrive, it wouldn't be fair to take them away, even if it means he'll end up missing them. and worse yet, the squidge he's looked after misses him. )
