Look Good For You

Cináed chuckled a little when she mentioned how she was going to have to get used to daylight again when she got back home, easily falling back into their usual banter. Something felt a little different this time though and he wasn't really sure what. Something in the way she hesitated and looked at the sky before she said anything else made him wonder what was on her mind. She said how she didn't find what she was looking for and it just made him wonder more about what was on her mind or what it was she had even come looking for in the first place. She wasn't exactly one to be open with her feelings which was normally fine by him since he didn't exactly look for opportunities to share his emotions either, but Onyx was in the very short list of wolves that he actually gave a shit about. He didn't have many friends growing up—and still didn't really if he was being honest—so he did care about her whether he should or not.

When she admitted that she wouldn't leave without saying goodbye the little twinge of disappointment that hit him caught him off guard. He certainly didn't expect her to want to move to Auster, not when she was so comfortable and attached to the north, so why was he disappointed that she wasn't going to at least stick around longer? As much as he wanted to run from his past it was kind of nice to have a little bit of familiarity even if he didn't really want to admit it. "Well... I'm glad I got to see you again before you left," he told her with a little hint of a smile before he glanced away awkwardly trying to find a way to make it into some kind of joke and failing. He didn't know when he'd see her again, but he liked to think that maybe they might cross paths again at some point. The north of Boreas and Auster were pretty far from each other, but the trip was far from impossible. "Just uh... Be safe getting back, alright? I know you can handle yourself, but there's lunatics out there so... you never know."
