What matters most is how well you walk through the fire.
She’s the only one who won’t go away. Not ever. Despite it all, despite how hard he pushes, she will not go away. She’ll back up, she’ll give him the space he asks for, but she will not go away. Instead she will sigh, she will bite back retorts and refrain from rolling her eyes. Instead, she won’t call him on his shit or expect him to be anything but what he has become. And she will stay, for him. Because it has always been for him, even if he doesn’t know it.
He goes on to say how brawling never helps anything. She gives him a rather incredulous look, eyebrows raised, clearly disbelieving. She found that brawling fixed most everything, and when brawling failed, sex usually solved the other problems. Her brother didn’t seem all that likely to go for the latter though (and given how she felt about Loren, she would murder him for it besides), so that left only the former. I disagree she scribbles, but turns her attention back to the leather.
She finds the leather punch, beginning to stick holes in the edges so they can string it up to dry. They could hang it, but it was always better to stretch it taught and let the air hit it from every side, so even though it’s the harder method, she uses it anyway. They could spend all day stretching and scraping the thing, if they really wanted, but one glance at it shows that it’s ready for the next step anyway.
