The understanding in Valentine's eyes was in itself a huge amount of support that she hadn't expected. Rhythm wanted to handle her problems by herself, she didn't want to be thought weak for struggling with the emotions that swirled within her. She hadn't expected such a soft, almost loving expression he offered her as she let the words spill from her lips. He didn't offer a single interruption and not once would she see disappointment cross his features. Though he took a moment to reply to her she had no reason to expect anything but support. Still she hardly expected his first words to be an apology.

She'd release a breath she hadn't realized she'd been holding as he relieved her from some made up thought that the would blame her for her inadequacies. He'd put a smile on her face as he addressed her nightmares, anytime she needed him he would be there. He'd help to rid her of the tears with his promise, and even managed to bring her smile back. She'd find herself breaching the last of the distance between them, her nose tenderly offering a silent thanks by nudging his muzzle.

He'd sigh though, and even as he said the words she felt a distaste for the plan as well. Though Bass had been given much time to clear his head she still held her doubts. Motif had not shown any change between the times she'd seen her why would her brother have? "Yes, Motif." Though her doubt was evident on her pulled back ears and almost desperate expression. "Maybe." She'd agree, though maybe always meant 'no' when she was growing up.

She'd lose his gaze as he took a look at the sky, her breath would escape her in a soft sigh as she struggled with her own words. She couldn't say no to him, but why was that? His words would return to her, keeping by his stand and encouraging her wise choice. Not that he could help her realize the actions of her heart. He'd switch their topic again though, offering the best advice so far. She shouldn't blame herself for her family's reaction to her decision. They were still family no matter how close they were, no matter what misunderstandings had happened. She'd nod in answer as she held back the rather visible emotions that wished to surge forth.

They were difficult to rid herself of though, but before she would let Valen see the spring that fell from her eyes she'd lean forward and bury her features into his dark fur, an unintentional whine slipping from her lips as she pushed into him. "I'm scared." She'd whisper, scared of not getting her family back, scared of the future, and scared of the feelings that she felt growing for the man she sought comfort from.
