Homecoming

Surreal

Surreal was delightedly amazed when Gabe stepped close and actually licked her muddy nose. She could sense that he wasn?t quite as easily as he was letting on, but she knew that it was a gigantic leap for him. So she leaned in and gave his cheek a delicate lick. ?Let me wash off real quick. I don?t mind dust, but mud cakes funny in a bad way.? She wagged, then padded toward the spring waterfall, which was still heavy with flood excess, but safe enough, and clear. She shivered as the chilly water rushed over her body, washing away the mud, and setting quite the shiver to her muscles. She stepped out, clean and dripping, shivering. Shaking herself hard, she sent most of the water slinging off, and her fur to standing in damp spikes.

She pranced to her brother, tail wagging and still splattering about and settled onto her haunches to listen to his words to Lyric. He was beginning to sound like a? Well, almost adult. It was cute the way his voice kept breaking to a squeak, then dropping to the new tones. Why didn?t her voice do that? Or her sisters? She wondered if Cas? voice was doing it. ?So what was it like out there?? She didn?t want to think of him leaving. Any of them leaving. They were Valhallans. They couldn?t leave. She couldn?t imagine Valhalla without her siblings. She wanted to cuddle close and hold him. Her eyes seconded Lyric?s plea.
