A Moment to Spare

Chrysanthe hadn't the chance to truly speak with Erani since Valhalla reunited. She had been one of the first of her siblings to wander off, and had gained an air of independence about her ever since. Yet she would not forget the lovely ivory healer that had done so much for she and her family. That had become a part of it really, she was the closest thing to a mother that she and her adopted siblings could really say that they remembered. She wanted to speak to her, had a million things to say to her - but honestly the yearling wasn't sure where to start. Within her mind her thoughts flowed so freely, yet in trailing down to her tongue it seemed that they lost much of their purpose. Even so, she was sure that Erani would listen to her, no matter what she had to say, right?


Approaching the healer's den, she paused at a scent that she had smelled once before - yet it was much stronger then. While Soliel was pregnant, when she had her children, she smelled the same way. The yearling wasn't too surprised, and she was happy for the female - of course! It would be the first thing that she congratulated her on. Her den smelled of she and a Valhallan male that the beta had yet to formally meet, and she was going to have a family.


Perhaps this wasn't the greatest of ideas after all.


Collision had responsibilities that far exceeded her - she had accepted that her eldest brother wouldn't be around as much when she was younger, and he hadn't been. He had responsibilities as an alpha, as a father, and putting time aside to babysit his younger siblings had not been a priority and she held no resentment toward him because of that. Yet she couldn't help but dread Erani becoming the same way. It made her regret the time that they could have spent together that was wasted, and she clammed up before the healer's den entrance.


She felt silly, burdening a new mother with her problems. Especially when said problems varied from her abandoning brother to a male that she might possibly have feelings for in Seracia. Her eyes downcast, she let her doubts swirl within her, her tail drooping as her head turned toward the nearest exit. Leaving was a much easier alternative it seemed... yet instead she took a step closer to Erani's den and quietly asked whether she was there. "Erani? Do you have a moment?"
