Seasons of Love

Novel coughed heavily, though she tried to suppress the action so as not to disturb Ara beside her. The old woman gasped for breath quietly, slowly gaining control back over her lungs. Only once had she found blood in the after effects, and she kept it from her mate then. Thankfully there was no red staining her paw as she focused on Ara beside her.

"We met when we were so young. Our mothers were good friends." She let herself dwell on Song and Silent for a long moment. Song had been younger when she and her siblings were born, but Silent had been much older when Ara and her siblings were born. Novel hadn't thought about her own siblings in a long time, though Canta and Mercury's brood was just coming of age when Novel returned to Boreas.

"I'd like to be taken back to Ludicael. To be young again." She mused, not trying to deflate the perfect place the two of them were in now, but back when she didnt have so many years weighing on her. "Wherever you are is perfect." Novel recovered, maybe a tropical island would have been nice. Here though, with the warmth of the spring sun and the green of the budding leaves Novel was content.
