Home sweet home

MaeA Something softened in her face at his words. It was still hard for her to grasp that she actually had friends now. People beyond her family who would miss her, who might worry. Who'd be happy to see her again. While Adam wasn't the one she'd been closest to, he was at least someone she appreciated, for all that he had been a strange hurricane of a man from the moment he crashed into her dinner. But it seemed she had caused both worry and sadness to these people, and for that... "I'm sorry" she said. "For disappearing, and for... everything." She gestured vaguely, trying to incorporate her lack of exuberance and general confusion into the apology. "It was not my intention, I just -" she fumbled for words to explain it "-got lost." Truth, in every sense. "Since when are you a bird?" She gazed at him curiously, not quite ready to leap into explanations. It worried her to hear that people had died, that 'shit' had happened... but Maea didn't want to deal with that either just yet. you're so cold, but you feel alive.
