broken-hearted lovers

Tiburtius realized Civetta had flown over to his own head when he felt the small bird tug on the fur around his ear. The companion's words didn't do much to ease his concern. If anything it just solidified it. His eyes followed Civetta as she flew off from the top of his head and back to the bridge of Finch's nose. A frown tugged at his lips while he watched the little bird try to break Finch's daze, resorting to giving some of her fur a sharp tug. Finally he saw Finch's eyes focus again with a shake of her head and his ears flicked back for a moment as she staggered back a few steps. He waited till she finally brought her blue gaze to his and offered an explanation for her discontent, but he didn't believe a word of it. Even if Civetta hadn't told him that she had been upset for a while now, he could see that this was something much more than just missing the view of the falls. "Come on," he instructed with a small, kind smile. He motioned with his head toward the falls that were a short distance away behind him. "I'm sure Uncle Leo won't mind you being here. Any friend of family is a friend of his." He made sure she was going to come with him before he turned toward the falls and padded back the way he had come. He kept his pace on the slower side, knowing that his long legs moved him a long at a quicker pace than hers would. He had learned that quickly from living with Momma Ama and then Arivae. He lead the way to the spot at the top of the falls where they had first met and settled down on his haunches. He offered her a warm smile, letting her sit next to him if she wished. All of his past and worries was forgotten for the time being, instead having his entire focus set on Finch and whatever seemed to be eating her up. This was what he was good at. Focusing on others and their problems. He didn't like to think about his own concerns. He liked to care for others. "Will you tell me what's going on?" he asked, giving her a playful glare and adding, "What's really going on?" He didn't want to pressure her too much if she really didn't want to talk about it, but he wanted her to know that if she needed to talk about it he was an open ear. |
