"yea... but I have witnessed the process. It's an amazing thing you have endured through for this angel... " Augustus gestured at Orvin, and nodded, but not with the usual confidence he would have. "i...er, I guess I can hold her. but you might needa give me a hand. I cannot quite lift my arms up steady...." he said as a blush spread on his face. He attempted to move but any movement brought a soreness through his entire body, and he was pretty sure he had never been as weak. Even moving his pinky took such an effort. He was determined, however, to hold her, even if just for a little while. He's a father, and this precious little girl is his daughter - he wanted to really feel her.

Looking at Orvin, the lord asked again humbly. "please? can you help me?" His lower body felt so heavy, he wasn't sure he could sit up by himself in the first place.
