Lark knew so little about how he felt about Lillianna that he continually hoped no one in his family would ask. Starling had been unabashed about it. He didn't know how to explain it - saying I fucked her seemed too crude to say, especially to his family, but he didn't know how to justify it beyond that.  He was grateful that Sparrow didn't say anything, but he also didn't know how she felt about his friend, either.

He was grateful for her welcoming touch, and he felt a sigh escape that he hadn't realized he'd been holding it. Since their mother had all but rejected their family, it was a terrifying reality that his siblings might someday decide to do the same. So much was changing, and the rapidity with which their world was being shaken up was disconcerting. He leaned gladly into her touch, though she pulled back soon enough to face him.

"I guess," he'd mumble in reply, not agreeing with her positive tone much. Home would never be the same again, soon - not if his packmates left, and not if his siblings left. And sure as hell not if they abandoned these lands all-together. He cringed silently at the thought. "Honestly, Sparrow? It sucks," he started, his gaze dancing away from her to focus on something in the distance. He didn't want to be pitied, even if he felt pitiful. "I don't think Karabela deserves Abaven. I don't want it, either. I mean... I do.. but I'm not ready." He had more growing up to do, he knew that, though he was well into adulthood now.

He shuffled his paws beneath him uncomfortably as he struggled with his thoughts. "I think we should stay here," he answered with certainty. "Even Tinaro would be a fine leader, in my opinion. We should stay and all work on contributing even more, and bring Abaven to greatness again." Running away from their collective failure wasn't a good idea, not in his eyes. "It sucks how much everything's changed," he mumbled with a sigh, bringing his gaze back to Sparrow. "What about you? What do you want to happen?"
