Sleeping Dragon kicked my heart to baltimore

Wildfire isn’t given the chance to explain before one of the children speaks first, announcing the obvious that turns into a question. Her eyes turn to look at him for a long moment, even after he’s spoken his confusion and his mother quickly corrects him. Uncertain what to make of the kid—Whip—she tears her eyes away to rest on Fox as she completes the introduction. Wildfire then offers to explain in as simple a detail as she can and then leads into her role within Drageda and only followed up with a bit that causes her to tense.

“It’s nice to meet you, Fox, Gannet,” she says with a brief flash of a smile as the heat fades from her cheeks, taking a few more steps to close the distance and stand close to her mate. “Whip,” she finishes, giving him one glance before turning to Wildfire. Thuringwethil hadn’t been prepared for their visit, or aware, and so she stifles back a few questions as she looks back upon the little group. “It must have been quite the trip,” she says. She isn’t sure how long when Wildfire’s visits had other things pop up that never gave a direct route. Plus, the woman has two boys to keep track of and that itself seems to be a whole other job.
