stay with me

*Emersyn*

Emersyn had spent the day going out gathering herbs with Segin for the umpteenth time since she'd arrived in the Hallows. The little purple man was extremely therapeutic with his ceaseless optimism and genuinely good nature. Between him keeping her busy and distracted and her fighting lessons with Duchess, Em had come to find she had unintentionally carved her own little niche into the purple wolf family. Both Indigo and Segin had begged her to stay with them now, and while the decision had weighed heavy on her mind and kept her up at night, she knew she had made her decision already. She had been vehemently denying everyone out of fear for their safety and a blind effort to keep them safe, even if it was at the expense of her own life. At the very least she could do this one good, selfless act for someone other than herself...

But the more she thought about it and the longer she spent with the wolves, especially sweet little Segin, the more she came to accept that maybe, just maybe she had found her way here for a reason. What were the odds that she'd end up collapsing beside a river where big, strong Indigo just happened to be, and what were the odds he just so happened to save her life and need him to look after him? What were the chances she'd find all these other broken wolves so similar to her, ready to welcome her into a new family without hesitation?

Em sighed softly as she traipsed across the courtyard, the late afternoon sun throwing long, dark shadows around the open space, enjoying the feeling of cold cobblestone and soft grass between the toes of her paw that no longer bore any bandages, fresh claws growing in nicely. The day was hot and muggy, far too much so to be pleasant, so ducking into the cool corridors of the castle felt like a breath of fresh air. Her mind turned toward Indigo, to the big purple man who had saved her so selflessly. He was far too kind, far too altruistic to be real. She could learn a thing or two from him... Just as she was thinking about how he should be getting his bandages removed soon, she rounded a corner and there he was! The violet-hued dire wolf was pacing back and forth in front of her bedroom suite, a pensive expression on his face. Was he waiting for her?

"Indigo, hello. You look great!" she greeted him with an ecstatic smile. The bandages had been removed from his belly, and all that remained was the pink skin of a fresh scar with thin fur surrounding it as it grew back. She breathed a sigh of relief, heart feeling a ton lighter, so thankful things hadn't gone so much worse. "Were you looking for me for something?" She shot him a curious glance and tilt of her head as she walked up to her bedroom door, lingering beside it while she watched him with aqua-cobalt eyes.
