the future is ready to shine

Her breathing calmed, and being so close to Corvus was comforting despite the dark thoughts that easily settled over both of them. She felt her pale lips pull back into a hint of a smile as he leaned against her softly. The close company helped her to think about her lost sister without fully succumbing to the sadness of losing her.

Twig hesitantly shifted, lowering her head over Corvus’s shoulders. He spoke softly about missing his siblings and went further to explain the two of them. His brother was here in Abaven, but he hadn’t seen his sister in a long time. That was much like how she felt. Her sister was gone and she hadn’t seen her brothers in more than a couple of years.

”I miss mine too.” She conferred softly before he wished for return to childhood. ”I haven’t been that care free in a long time.” Twig mused as she sighed softly. She almost missed being taken care of, but she knew she couldn’t return there. She had three pups who were relying on her to be the responsible one. ”Life can still be fun.” Autumn spoke with optimism in return to him. ”And you don’t have to work hard all the time.” She teased him lightly, returning to her earlier comment about him loosening up.
