I like you

Hearing that Resin hadn't really known what to do as a mother did give her a little bit comfort just in case somehow her life did manage to lead her down that path. At this point she wasn't sure how it possibly could, but the fact that someone that she viewed as highly as Resin had to figure things out as she went to made her feel a little better about her uncertainty on the subject. She wanted to ask what she meant by not having a choice with her children, but she got a bit of an answer soon enough when she explained how she had given in to her former mate since he had wanted children with her so badly.

There was clearly so much she didn't know about being in a real relationship, but that was to be expected since she had never had the chance to be in one herself. She hadn't imagined that there would be debates and compromises about something as life changing as having pups, but of course there was - she just had never thought of it. She had no idea what to expect out of it if she was being honest. The only example of a relationship she had never experienced before coming to Boreas and joining the Armada had been her parents and the other mated pairs in their pack. There was never any compromise with them - it was only ever what the man wanted. The women had never had any say. At the very least she knew that she didn't want that for her life... but other than that she was just going with whatever made her happiest.

Tamsyn smiled a little when Resin insisted that she still had time to decide. "I suppose so," she replied with a chuckle as she glanced away from the warrior. The truth was she had already made up her mind in a way, she just hadn't had the courage to say so. As if reading her mind, the question came around who might have caught her attention. It made her ears fall back against her head and for a moment she couldn't respond. She looked back to Resin uncertainly and was silently grateful that her eye was closed as she opened her mouth to respond and then simply closed it again.

Did she tell the truth? Did she lie? If she did lie, would that ruin any chance she had in the future of telling the truth? But was she ready to face the rejection that she felt was sure to come from finally speaking what was in her heart? Endless uncertain questions swirled in her head and the seconds of silence felt like hours stretched on while she scrambled to make a decision. She thought of how much time had passed already since she joined the Armada and how much had happened in that time. It felt like that time had passed in the blink of an eye... Did she really want to waste any more time beating around the bush and trying to hide her feelings?

"There... there is someone," she finally admitted, nervously looking down at her front paws again while her heart pounded hard against her ribcage. Her claws scratched anxiously at the dirt under her paws, fidgeting with the grass while she gathered up every ounce of courage she had. "It's... Well... I..." Her cheeks burned furiously under her dark fur and she huffed a sigh of frustration with herself while she still continued to avoid Resin's gaze. "I-It's you. I like you," she finally blurted out, feeling everything go still around her as she waited for some kind of reaction - bracing herself for the polite rejection that she was so incredibly positive was going to come next.
