Evie
“You're not funny, you know I can’t chase you now!” Evie yells after her errant companion, watching with cheeks puffed from exasperation as the dark tip of Micah’s tail disappears around the side of the house. Surely off to cause mischief, keenly aware that Evie has little in her arsenal with which to stop him. Erebos may grow older, but she’ll never be free of having a child around the house.
Oof, she thinks, and props her hands on her hips in the middle of the pathway to their front door. She’s had the entire walk home to think, to digest, and it still wasn’t enough. Maybe if she stands a little longer in the snow it will sink in? Even if she must look either ominous or ridiculous - or both - standing in her parka in the yard staring into space.
From the back of the house, Micah chuffs and yowls (not at full volume, Evie has heard that before and would not like to repeat the experience) and Evie sighs as she trudges toward the noise. He’s likely either unearthed one of the Ignatius family members or he’s demanding to be let into the back door or the greenhouse - regardless, she needs to herd the literal cat back into civility. No time for more stewing.

I see you when you chase the dreams inside your head
and when you laugh and love until the bitter end
and when you laugh and love until the bitter end
