It's better to ask forgiveness than permission

A soft sigh left those thin lips, watching as Amara proved to listen time and again, being a bit too good perhaps but Abelinda minded little. It made things easier, a bit. Once Amara took a seat did Abelinda relax a bit, not as much as she wanted but she couldn't afford to be too relaxed. The sound of approaching footfalls caught those sensitive ears, a small smile played across her lipped muzzle as Avalon came into view. “An Illness caused my leave; at the time I did not know if it would effect everyone else or just myself.” A simple truth, but she could say she was tired, so very tired; age, winter and illness had not agreed with her at all. “I've come to join again Avalon, if you would have me.” Why wouldn't she join? Her brood was here, something to be seen to and cared for. It made her wonder, just what Liar had been up to or how well he had been acting as a mate.

“And in the dark I can hear your heart beat.”
