For so many years now, nothing had felt quite right. Her close family dispersing had left Thalia feeling unsettled, unfulfilled, always searching for her purpose in a vast sea of... well, nothingness. If any Abraxas wolves remained at all she had not heard hide nor hair of them, and she was convinced they were not serving Him in the way they ought to have been. It was up to her, and her alone, to carry on His legacy. He just had to show her a sign.

She'd spent so long searching for how, when suddenly the pieces fell before her and clicked right into place.

Maybe it'd been Theory all along.

The bird that soared overhead cast an unusually large shadow over her, causing Thalia to flinch slightly. The emotions that flooded her were overwhelming, and for once she wasn't quite able to fight to keep them away. The smile that broke over the other woman's features was like the first thaw after a long, brutal, seemingly endless winter - the cold melted away all at once, and all she saw was life. Potential.

Thalia mirrored her smile with ease, the corners of her mouth twisting into a playful grin that didn't fade even when Theory charged her. The impact sent her backwards, falling hard into the sand and warm water below. The wave lapping at her hindquarters didn't stop the way her tail was wagging, sending a spray of water across the sand.

They'd both aged so much since they were together last, but Theory was no less beautiful. The first time they'd met was when Theory had bested her, under the agreement Thalia would come every time she called, for a full year... but the truth was that Thalia never intended to ignore the other woman's calls. Even when she sent her away, for what she thought was the last time. She made no effort to fight being pinned by Theory - if anything, it looked like she welcomed it.

"I've missed you," she admitted softly, a rare moment of vulnerability from the Abraxas woman. But Theory had a way of effortlessly cracking open her stony exterior and letting everything soft underneath spill out. Now that she was older, and so much more tired, she didn't bother trying to hide it. Instead, she lowered her head slightly, nose burying into the damp fur on the side of Theory's neck, drinking in her scent thirstily. "You're okay," Thalia said after a moment, as much a question as a statement. Did Theory even remember how unwell she'd been when they'd seen each other last?
