i know i should trust my gut
'cause i know that there's something up
'cause i know that there's something up
It’s the but that gets her, her amber gaze flitting across to see her sister’s bright gaze in return, the enthusiasm sucked out of her voice with the first time Caly’s denied her sister. The answer is one that she expects, though, and is unsurprised by it. And while the young attuned feels much the same way, she can’t deny the fact that she’s tired of constantly feeling like they’re on the run. Like the roots of their lives matter less and less the more they bounce around.
She can’t help but to think of the long deep roots their father had made in Torchline, the years of blood, sweat, and tears that had created a place that breathed his name as much as its own. It’s something she craves, something she can’t get if they continue to leave. Her sister does make a valid point, though, and she draws silent as her sister makes her claim, her arm surrendered to her sister’s touch as she nods.
“Hard to get regular customers ‘n business if the shop ain’t there at least most’ve the time.” From a logistical stance, at least. And it hurts to see her sister deflate so much with her disagreement, to the point that she flashes her a small apology of a smile, squeezing her arm in return. “What if.. What if you went to the Greatwood with V and made sure he kept outta trouble. I’ll stay here for a landin’ pad if you guys need it? An’ we can upgrade our bracelets so it’ll work past bein’ in the same place?”
