// the only heaven i'll be sent to —
Thorn remains content in the bobbing shade of the Peregrine as he chuckles softly, letting the thought of it meld through any previous shadows in his mind, at least until Tal’s question reaches him and he closes his eyes, arms stretching out in front of him as he twists his hands a little, a pop from his wrist heard as he hums. “No, not really.” He admits. Maybe it was sad, maybe it wasn’t. Maybe Thorn had just realized that blood didn’t mean family, not if they didn’t really care about what you wanted.
“Dad was the worst, of course, but mm..” Thorn trails off, eyes opening to let his seafoam gaze peer up at his still outstretched hands, before he sits up, planting them behind him as he notices the hawk. “If I wasn’t going to be in Halo, they wanted me to be a builder. Something… Respectable, I guess.” He glances over at Tal with a small smile twisting up the corner of his mouth. “They cut ties when they found out what I was really doing. Didn’t want to associate with their “whore son”.” He shrugs casually. “Sometimes I miss them, then remember how they reacted about all of it, and the feeling goes away.”
