Let the Love Shine In

Finch was such a cutie! She had a bird friend?! Sparrow would barely contain a squeal when the small bird spoke and perched on her paw. The fluffy girl held still as to not disturb the small animal. As others arrived, the bird would move to her shoulder, allowing her to move when poor Vail came in. Finch tended to her and Sparrow joined in lightly, inspecting to see if any of the wounds would need treating while aiming to pull out small spurs and sticks from her little cousin's fur, only pausing once Harmony started talking.
Sparrow was happy to listen to her aunt. She knew her elders must have more experience than her and wanted to learn, but she still felt a little bad. They were being scolded. They didn't trust each other. They were supposed to be a family, not just the Destructions. Why didn't they all change their last names, then, Sparrow wondered. Aunt Harmony spoke of trust and Sparrow's mind thought of how her brothers knew of the war before her. She wanted to ask, but her aunt did not seem open to questions.
The small, fluffy girl frowned slightly as they were assigned to groups. She did as her aunt told her, rushing over to the other side of Lark as to not stand next to Lillianna. She wasn't mad at the muddy red girl anymore, but she didn't think that she liked her all that much. Sparrow would offer a small nuzzle into Lark's neck. Lillianna asked about the word, "vaffanculo" and Sparrow would snort in surprise, her wide, minty eyes darting to the woman. Surely she didn't know what that meant and was asking honestly! Sparrow was willing to bet no one else heard her other than Lark. Sparrow flicked her ears back slightly, hoping Lillie would get the gist to not say that word too loudly, like, ever.
Another girl spoke up, she didn't know the names of everyone. Sparrow listened to the others then nodded, about to introduce herself when Shrike barreled in. Sparrow's breath caught and her eyes darted to Harmony to see if she would be angry.
