[ He does join her on the floor, resting his elbows near his knees, his hands folded together so his chin can rest there. And then he just listens to Brianna again. He loves listening to her, about anything, truly.

The current subject is a painful one for many reasons, but it makes his daughter happy and there's nothing that matters to him more than that.

He's truly stunned, though, by the sounds suddenly emanating from her strange machine, staring at it curiously, then back at Brianna. ]


I couldna have asked for a better man to love ye and take care of you and yer mother. I'm sorry ye lost him, Brianna. Truly, I am.

[ For a moment, he squeezes her wrist, then lets go, nodding at the machine. ]

What is this...music?

[ This is so very, very strange to him, though he likes the sound of this music. ]

And how is it that the sound gets inside of these...discs?

[ She's explaining it well enough, but he's still struggling to understand it all. He'll get there, slowly. ]

This disc sounds verra different from the last. Does that mean then that ye could hear any kind of music ye like?

[ As he listens intently, focused on the lyrics, he thinks about Claire and what thoughts must have filled her mind as she listened to this as well. ]

He has a...verra good voice. The words are beautiful.

[ It makes him smile but feel sad for Claire all at the same time. But when that song ends, he looks at Brianna. ]

Do ye have a favorite, Brianna?

[ His smile widens as he listens with her. It's the most unusual music he's ever heard, but he enjoys it. He enjoys it even more knowing that his daughter does. ]

Yer fondness is well placed, Brianna. I enjoy her voice myself.

I'm eager to learn from ye.

[ He smiles softly, just so grateful to have this time with her, to be able to talk to her. ]

I wish to tell you, Brianna, that you dinna to stop yerself from referring to Frank as yer father. I've noticed you call him 'Frank' and I can wager why ye do that, but I wouldna call my mother 'Ellen' nor my father 'Brian.' He raised you and loved you. I'm in his debt.

[ Being hugged by his child is truly one of the best gifts he's ever been granted, and he hugs her in return, for as long as she'll allow. ]

I'm glad fer it. Fer this day. And fer you.

[ Mo luaidh. Mo chridhe. I love ye. ]
