Try as a Might
She watched as Arian composed herself, stepping back to give her some room. She shook her head a little as soon as Arian finished her first sentence, a small smile on her lips. "Don't. You've done enough. You've fixed a broken creature and gave her a home, that's more then what I could have wished for." And it was true, despite the frustrations that presented itself, it was part of growing up. And honestly, she was glad to have it. She never had the chance to be frustrated or angry about something within a pack, other then being enslaved. This was a good kind of frustration and anger, or so she put it that way. She sat then, as she listened to Arian's next words. She mulled over what was being said carefully, and in a way...she couldn't blame Arian for doing what she did. "I see now why...you did what you did." She looked thoughtfully at her paws, her anger fading completely now. She couldn't stay mad at Arian no matter how foolish she thought she was being. "Honestly...I probably would have done the same, were I in your position." She murmured, her gaze returning to Arian. "If you needed, or still need my help, you know I will help you. I know I have...my own issues to overcome, but being here has helped me in doing that. I want nothing more then to see our home thrive, and to see you happy. I'll follow you anywhere, and if you feel you've made a wrong decision, I'll be here to guide you." True, Avalon wasn't much older then Arian, but she would sure as hell be at her side and pass what knowledge she had to help her in any way she could.
She took a deep breath as she thought about how to respond to Arian's doubting question. She was afraid of Sin? Was that how he reminded her of the uncle she had? Truth be told, Sin scared her too. And she would rather not have him around, but right now...maybe they needed him? "He doesn't seem like the nice type...but even he wouldn't do something without a rational reason, I think..." She looked at Arian eye to eye with concern, though she was afraid of Sin too...he didn't seem to be irrational type his lineage had presented. "Like you said, he's Vereux's brother right? If Vereux had been capable of change, I'm sure Sin has too in some form. Experience and life...tend to do that, and he doesn't seem to be as irrational as their father was...that was...a whole other level of...I'm not even sure what to call it." She shuddered at the thought that she wasn't too sure if this creature was like the albino, but if he was...she was sure he would have killed Arian in their first meeting or challenged her at some point during the pack meeting, which he didn't. Instead, he had taken the initiative to say things that could potentially get the pack to actually start doing something if they believed they would receive punishment for it. "I can't tell you what to do or how to think, but you should rely on your intuition. Cypress and I will give our input, but ultimately the decision is up to you. However, you can't learn and grow without mistakes. And simply giving up isn't an option. So...I think, you should keep Sonticus. And I think, he could make a good ally in the future should he choose it."
