Ignis presses his head against Cobweb a moment longer and then raises it so he can face in Shion's direction. He's obviously considering the offer, though it is very difficult for him to decide who he would send to stay with Shion. All of those who are left as so dear to him, but if he is going to send them to stay with anyone, it would be Shion who he cares about like a son.

"Do you..." He pauses a moment before turning his blind gaze toward Rory who he knows still is resting on her perch. She was his first companion, but Leilani is like a daughter to him and Leo...he just needs Leo right now. Besides, he has a feeling if he sent the tigerlily away, even with the best of intentions, he would return to watch over him. Just like Gladio would have wanted.

"Can you take care of Rory for me? She won't want to leave me, but she is well trained and if I ask her to go, I believe she will. I can teach you her signals too so she will answer to you and so you know how to fight with her."
