Tell The World, I'm Coming Home

Looking from Resin to Outlaw, Meadow waits for one of them to speak. Resin is first and simply states his name, single sulfur eye seems to bore holes into her and it takes all of Meadow’s willpower not to shrink away under her sister’s calculating gaze. Outlaw cheerful chimes in, telling Resin how they went treasure hunting and she can come along next time. Soft smile appears as she looks at him before looking back to her sister. Okay, so maybe she has a huge soft spot for… well a lot of things, but Outlaw is really special and genuine. With a little direction, she is certain he will be a contributing pack member. She knows that is one of the big pack rules that everyone pulls their weight and with some time and direction, Meadow is certain that Outlaw will do just that.

As Outlaw finishes, Meadow looks to her sister, straightening up to her full, albeit short height and squares her shoulders. This is something Meadow is passionate about, something she will fight tooth and claw for and she is terrified of Resin rejecting Outlaw. Meadow adds, “He will be very beneficial to the pack. I can teach him to help me gather herbs or to craft useful things for the pack. Outlaw can live in my healing hut until he builds himself a den and I will teach him everything he needs to know.” Looking from Resin to Outlaw and back, Meadow finishes, “I swear he will pull his weight and I will help him with anything he needs. I promise.”

Emerald eyes meet sulfur gaze and Meadow smiles warmly. In her head, she keeps repeating, ‘please say yes, please say yes, please say yes’.
