Tea too hot to spill

As Kite started to ask him if he'd had visions... Crux could only shake his head slowly. He hadn't seen any of his family, he had seen some fireflies in the moments before he'd woken back up but that had been the only thing even remotely related to the festival of their youth.  He followed his sister's gaze to his own leg, feeling a knot form in his stomach. So he wasn't the only one to think they were somehow connected to all this weirdness. Some part of him wanted to press the issue, to dig into what exactly the two of them had been through but another part of him was scared of doing so, of finding something he wouldn't want to learn... What if it was true, what if he really was the reason their mother got sick... Died.

He was pretty sure even in the dark and with a dark pelt to help mask it there would be no missing the sudden change in his demeanour. "Well uh...." Where did he even start? Obviously he thought of Triss but technically he'd already had his first kiss with another girl entirely and... "That is..." He was doing a great job, definitely not making it very obvious that he did in fact have a girl or two, and maybe even a boy, to look at his scar. Mind only one of them had seen it but still...
