do not fear the dark, wolf cub, for when the sun leaves the world,
She’d let Deimos hold onto her for the rest of time if she could, but it’s not feasible. They both know this, and for the time being she’s content to be wrapped up in his arms as they slowly break apart – enough of the same of the year prior that has her trembling slowly, because things had gotten better, eventually, before they’d blown apart again. And it terrifies her, because what if next year it’s him? or Amalia? Or Chulane? What then?
I’m sorry. She reiterates through the bond, just as sorrowful, just as sad, trying to keep him together as much as she tries to keep herself together. Chulane’s presence is another buoy to keep her somewhat afloat at she tries to stifle her sorrow. And she hears Deimos’ words through the attuned bond, after news of Weaver spreads, as Deimos tells her that he can’t handle anymore, and she pulses her understanding, her similar thoughts, sniffling and sucking down the tears to be better looked at later.
And so she swallows hard, arms squeezing him tight as she moves to pull away and indeed do as Chulane has suggested, heart heavy but able enough to hold onto the pain until later. “I’m glad you are too.” She offers him, that he’s safe. She imagines he would have told her if Amalia wasn’t alright either, but since it hadn’t quite popped up yet, she hopes that the Shield is just as well.
Her hand lingers on Deimos’ arm, pulling him with her as she goes to grab her bag again and Auni slips up beside them. “I met Chulane just before Deepfrost, when I checked Halo to ensure that the Grounders had a place to stay.” She says quietly, gaze flickering along her father figure for a reaction, unsure if now is the time, but at least it might prove to have a better result. “We’re… Well… He’s my boyfriend. He’s also the Chief of Agriculture for Halo, now.” She offers quietly, as if it might help, iceberg gaze glassy and exhausted focusing on Chulane.
