Walk | "Talk" | Think Maia gave no immediate answer to Rune's offer, and though he did feel a touch of disappointment he could not bring himself to hold it against her. They had all been through so much, had changed so much since they had all been together last. Rune knew it, deep down, that things would never be as they once were. He would never have the same sort of relationship with his siblings that they had had when they had shared a den, before they had been separated and wandered about on their own. Things had happened to each of them, sculpting them into who they would be as adults. Though he could not quite comprehend his sister's hesitance in refusing to answer just then - still of a mindset himself that Tortuga would always be home for them, no matter what - he made no attempt to draw the conversation back onto the touchy topic as the pitch colored girl changed their conversation, asking a request of him instead. Comfort. That was all she wanted. And given what he knew of her recent escapades, of possibly wandering the territories in search of safety and shelter without anyone there to keep an eye on her or have her back, it seemed like a small and simple request that he needed to comply with for her. They may have been separated for a considerable length of time, but blood was thicker than absence as far as he was concerned. Once again, he merely nodded, glad to at least see his sister's attempt at a smile even if it lacked the natural sincerity behind it that he remembered coming so naturally to her in their youth. She wasted no time in settling herself there upon the ground, and he did the same, allowing her to curl up against him and rest her head upon his paw. He reached over her to give her upturned shoulder a soft nuzzle as she rested, silently contemplating to himself what would happen to them once she woke and they parted ways. Would they stay close? Would they disappear from each other for another indeterminable amount of time? Whatever the case, he hoped it would only be the for the best. OOC: Works for me. c: All done then! |
