She could see the distress and frustration etched into his features. Hear it in his jaggard breaths. His eyes, when they turned to her, where more than a little wild around the edges. She stepped forward, instead of back. She had no fear of him, even when he did look more feral then sane.

When he spoke, she could begin to see the edges of the problem plaguing him. It was to do with his last name again, that and his mother. It seemed Rhythm had not stepped up and defended him, or at least not chosen Rhyme over Valentine. She let out a soft sigh, oddly enough, she had been in his shoes once. When she was very young, she hadn’t understood how Rhythm had chosen Valentine and his pack over her and Abaven. She had been confused for a long time, until she had eventually found balance. In doing so, she went against her mother's wishes and snuck out to see her Auntie whenever she could.

“So you would make the choice for her? You would take away her freedom?” she asked him softly, delivering the blow as gently as she could. “You are not a child, you are a grown man, and she is your mother, and a woman in her own right. A wolf that is old and weary. If this is the path her heart leads her down, then that is her right. You can’t take away her freedom from her, if you did that you would see her as miserable and bitter until the end. I fear that would hurt you far more than how you feel now.” she pointed out to him, leaning closer and resting a paw against his shoulder, offering him comfort as she attempted to save him from himself. “She is not a prize to have at your shoulder, but a wolf who has been through a lot and deserves peace. I understand how you feel, I miss my mother with all my heart, and when I was a child, I wished that Rhythm had chosen us over him. Of course, if she had done that, you would not exist, and the world would be poorer for it.” she smiled at him, a sad, lonely sort of smile, but a smile nonetheless.
