Nicaise nodded. He had tried to run away from the children's home at one point, but it had been cold and everything had felt so foreign to him that he'd been cowardly and gone back. They hadn't even noticed he'd been out. Perhaps she would have better luck with it.
"I don't have family, either. Someone I knew from my world took me in." Toulouse sniffed curiously at the girl's feet and Nicaise went quiet, remembering how it was to show up here, remembering the children's home. She said she'd run away, but he still felt like he ought to do something. It wasn't charity, but born of a feeling of kinship. Nicaise didn't often feel a softness for others, but he couldn't let her go off on her own. "You should come to my apartment. You could have a bath at least, and a sandwich."
