now lie in it

Lark loved his family deeply, even if he was not always the best at showing it. He was not naturally the most affectionate of creatures, but he would never turn away the love of his family and he felt a sense of calm and happiness wash over him at Finch's gentle touch. He almost felt happy that his sister didn't seem overly excited to share about the trip. That meant that home was better. He didn't want them, any of them, to decide to leave again. Everything was better this way.

Her voice seemed rough and unused and he fought the urge to frown at her. She was more like Starling than any of their other siblings, but why had she grown more timid instead of stronger? Damnit, he thought to himself, she shouldn't have gone. She should have stayed here and trained with me. "Have you been singing much?" Lark would ask gently, a hint of worry in his voice.

The expression was quickly replaced with a smile as she nipped at his flank, and his tail would bat gently against the earth in pleasure. "Abaven didn't feel right without you guys," he admitted, a sigh falling from his lips. "You're not allowed to leave me ever again." His tone was equal parts serious and jesting - he really didn't want to imagine them taking such a long trip again, not without him.
