Even if it Breaks Your Heart

He let his words roll off his tongue and fall clattering on the ground. The sound of them echoed in his ears like someone else was speaking them and part of him just wanted to crawl deep inside himself and sleep right through winter. His golden amber eyes closed as he tried to get out of his head, to focus on the present. The coolness of the autumn air, the warmth of Corentine's body resting against hers and the sweetness of her smell. He drank of it like he'd just broken to the surface and found her presence easing his distress.

"What's really silly is that I was thinking of convincing you to run away from all of this.... with me."

Brandr turned to stare at Corentine in surprise then down at his paws. "You know… the same thought had crossed my mind. It would be nice to just leave all this madness behind us but I said I'd fight with the pack so I feel I at least ought to try." Though it scared him terribly and the thought of living in constant tension was not an appealing one. He'd have to watch himself every second of every day. "I want to at least get the message of Abaven's situation to Celestial and Lirim. I guess we'll see what comes of that but… I don't know that outright war agrees with me. Not when there are still viable options." He shook his head, he felt sick with all this thinking. "Corentine… I… I just want you to know that I really care about you. I don't think I could stand to see anything happen to you if war came to our borders."
