Aiuti! Aiuti!

Sparrow gave the best account she could. She had missed a bit of the healing part, but she had been there when Starling administered the herbs. She could smell them, and knew what they were. Everyone had asked her what had happened, and she had given them the account that she was personally usure if it had been poisoning, but regardless, Starling had administered herbs and all. She thought she did a decent job of being objective, given the circumstances. Apparently no one else agreed. Starling left bitterly, turning from their family. Followed by a fuming Quake. Unfair? How had she been unfair? What had she said that had pissed them off so much. As expected, Lillianna followed Starling's tail and left. Sparrow felt her heart breaking. She had tried her best. Kakashi came in saying he was sure it was poisoning. Was that what everyone was so upset about? So what if it was poisoning or not at the moment? It WAS important that Harmony got details about the healing, not every little detail of who did what when and if they were heroic or not. Sparrow looked at Kakashi as he suggested taking Finch to Starling's den. That's why they were upset? Because Sparrow suggested giving Finch to Harmony while everyone got rest. Sparrow sighed. Everyone storming off or getting their feelings hurt, "This is exactly what I meant by tired," she mumbled. Harmony was level headed, and Starling had just proven that she was the best choice for the situation. How had she been wrong, she wondered. Her account was accurate for what she knew, so why was everyone leaving. What had she done wrong? She just wanted to get her sister the care she needed. Lark called after Starling, and Sparrow's head snapped up. He called Starling selfish. So... he didn't think Sparrow had been awful, maybe? Maybe Starling was over reacting? Bass called out angrily and Sparrow found herself cowering instinctively. He didn't seem to say she was wrong or that she was being mean or hostile. He gave everyone tasks and Sparrow nodded firmly. She was still here. She could still help. Harmony gave Kakashi a hard look and also mentioned that whether or not Finch was poisoned was speculation. Sparrow felt a pressure lift from her. The adults weren't yelling at her. They didn't think she was terrible for her given account. Harmony gave her a task to gather supplies from Harmony's den and Sparrow nodded, quickly rushing to Lark and giving him a kiss on the cheek. To Shrike, she nuzzled on the neck. To her father, she pressed her face into his shoulder, then licked Finch's ear. To Harmony, Sparrow approached and pushed herself close for a second, "I'll be fast..." she whispered before taking off. Everyone else could be upset, but Sparrow knew in her heart that she had done the best she could and she was still trying. "SPEAK!" |
