Oh, this is not good.

Isshin's seen the toll the war took on his son- seen how much it had stressed him out, worn him down. Even if Ichigo wouldn't outright say it, his father could tell.

He can always tell. He's Ichigo's dad, after all- what kind of dad would be be if he couldn't tell?

A hand places itself on the hand gripping his arm- the pressure firm enough to let Ichigo know he's there, but gently enough to the point it isn't restricting.

"Yes, you can," His voice is soft, gentle- as if he's speaking to a child. "It's hard, I know it is, but you can do it. Just focus." He continues to take deep breaths, giving something for his son to mimic.

"You're safe here, Ichigo. Whatever you were dreaming, it's no more. it's gone now. You're safe- we're safe."
