awkward talk

Zee's lips parted to allow a soft humorless chuckle to carry across, and she leaned into her Empress' head as it rested upon her shoulder. "This feels like Deja Vu, only seasons ago it was Sirius you insisted to me could not be." She sighed then, consumed by her friend's sorrows. "No one would judge you for choosing her, Death. You need to follow your heart for once and stop worrying about what's right." Zee did not know what it was holding her back; whether it was her family's opinion on lesser wolves like it had been for Sirius, or the fact that Io could not give her heirs to Ashen, or something else entirely. But she did know that Deathbelle had spent her life compromising for everyone else, and she needed to act for herself for once.
