Lay Down Tonight

When Chimera joined her, her head turned towards him with a gentle smile and a greeted nod before she looked back out at the sunset and the changing colors of the water and the sky. "I've decided to stay." Her voice was careful, but also strong. It was what she wanted to a large extent, but yes she was still unsure. She didn't know if she would change her mind or it would backfire on her, but right now she was just willing to go with what her heart told her. "There's a part of here, and a part of you that makes me feel safe and welcome." She hoped that didn't sound weird. They didn't know each other too personally. She had voiced a large picture of her past, but did that mean that he really knew her? Probably not.

She glanced at him slightly, but went back to her forward gaze and turned a little tense to what was on her mind. "I need you to know though, I don't think I am safe for your pack." It was a confession, but she felt like he had to know what was going on internally for her. Even if it ended bad for her. It was feelings that she couldn't even really navigate herself. "That hunt we did together, the kill changed me. It took me back into the tournaments. I didn't feel like I was in control of myself." It was only a moment, and Chimera had easily brought her back into reality. But she wondered what could happen the next time, or if the phases became worse. "'Haze' puts me into submission. I need you to remember that." She didn't know what would come for her after this, but she was willing to take that next step whether it was her freedom here in the pack or locked away somewhere where she couldn't hurt anyone.
