Hanako had never held onto a grudge like this before, gnawing away at it like a bone. Honestly it was hard work, to put so much time and effort into feeling a certain way. Normally her emotions came and went, soft and fleeting, like a scent on the breeze. But her resentment stuck around like a stink, clinging to her form and tainting every thought that passed through her mind. It was one thing to be turned down by one brother, but both??? She swung back and forth between never wanting to see a Fatalis again and wanting to just sweep all of this under the rug, pretend it never happened and move on. Except that it was never that easy, every time she attempted to approach Mortis to just...talk he was always there. Either Hikaru was doing his best to get under Hanako's paws or the universe was trying to give her a hint, one she was trying desperately to ignore.
Yet again she sought Mortis out, hoping to find him huddled up in his den only to find the exact wolf she didn't feel like talking to today. At first she was too overwhelmed with the feelings of ugh, but as she stood there in the icy wind she realised the extent of the situation. Hikaru was in Mortis' den. All snuggled up and cosy in a spot right where Hanako ought to be. Wonderful. She was tempted to turn around and storm off but where did she have to go? She hadn't used the den Azure had dug out for her in AGES and she didn't want to return to it any time soon either, she was stuck in limbo. With nowhere she really wanted to be. Swallowing her spite, Hanako forced on a smile as she padded her way to the entryway of the den and poked her head inside. If nothing she could ask where Mortis was and seek him out, that would serve as a welcome distraction.
"Hey have you seen Mortis? I need to talk to him."
