my held breath fills the room with blood
hurting in ways I can't describe
Hotaru’s own hum of contemplation catches on the tail end of Seren’s words. “I think even parents are biased in their aesthetic desires, but at the end of the day you are your own person, and what feels most natural and appealing to you is most important.” Her status as a demigoddess would surely make up for any lack of dazzle in her ride.
“I can shift now, so if I needed to overnight in the tundra I would be able to. But I intended to go to Deimos’ house. I won’t risk going to my spa.” Few even knew Deimos no longer resides in the Barracks, but they’d hunt for her at the spa first. A twinge in her stomach has her sitting up from her reclined position. “Though admittedly I’m rather hungry. Have you ever been hunting before? It’s probably best to lie low, so the Citadel is out.” She would be happy to show the girl how to do so, even if she didn’t partake - Hotaru’s cougar form would be happy to eat the meat raw herself.

my heart bends and breaks
so many, many times
