”But allowing yourself to dwell in the negativity will only hurt worse in the long run.” Rhyme offered back calmly as Theory gave into her anger. He didn’t chastise her, she was allowed to experience the emotion she felt. However. ”You’re right. Hopes and dreams are good foor the soul, but only action can change. Positive action, evacuating Abaven, replanting the thicket..” Positive action that bred hope, which would lead to more positive action.

Rhyme knew Noir was on his way out the door. Verse’s disappearance hit him hard, but was not a true surprise. She secluded herself after Tana’s death. She hadn’t come to his call since before their mother’s demise. He hadn’t wanted to force anything on her, and he hoped she could hold out until he found her too. With a soft sigh he stood up to his full height and gaze into his daughter's eyes as she welcomed the fury and readied herself to attack him.

”Indeed.” He agreed, letting his own dark hackles raise along his back. He couldn't bring himself to show the frustration he felt at not being able to be out there, looking for his daughters. Not towards Theory. Letting her show her own frustration back was one good reason for him to be in Abaven. ”Come at me, Theory.” He invited her to begin their jaunt.
