– NATE –
There is a newfound anxiety, a trepidation that comes from going against his instincts, what he’d been taught, what had been beaten into him. Don’t crack, don’t show weakness, never give anyone a up on you. Nate has more than cracked, has more than shown weakness, and despite all the years telling him that the world, this world especially, didn’t follow his fathers rules he can’t stop his wary stare, can’t keep from worrying about the response.
What happens is the opposite of horrors his mind had conjured though. A breath, where it seems like all will go awry, and then, a compassion, a mercy he hadn’t anticipated. The flames are throttled, not completely, but reduced to a more manageable level, a less present danger. Thanks. The word slips from him lightly, almost flippantly, but is backed up by a wave of relief and appreciation both, Nate unable to hold back a deluge, not knowing it’s something he has to do.
I hope you don’t mind me sticking around a little longer then. The feline liquid shape of the panther reclined into a more relaxed lounge, stress bleeding out of him with every little stretch. I imagine most people don’t see you in this shape. Might keep more of them away. The ones who aren’t me.
