Sparrow could not believe this boy. He started out by confirming that she loved the pups, "OF COURSE!" she shouted before thinking. She didn't have to think, she knew she loved them. The boy then went on to say she didn't have to defend Rhythm, "I'm not defending her!" UGH! Ashmedai told her that accepting differences was part of growing up, using her own words against her. He was kind of right, but that was not the point here. How could he be so accepting, "Ashmedai! How can you be so-" Sparrow stepped forward, her breath filling her lungs as her eyes closed,
"STUUUUUUBBOOOOOORRN?!"
There, she said it. Sparrow opened her eyes, her breath huffing, defeated. She didn't know what else to say. That was it. She couldn't do anything.
A light?
A light caught Sparrow's eye. It drifted in the sky lazily. Mint eyes followed it. It cam closer and closer until softly, it landed on her nose. Cross-eyed, Sparrow stared at it, then slowly refocused her eyes to look at the other. In a hushed voice she called out to him, "Shh Ash- shh, look."
