Blacktail Deer Plateau we are in a state of flux

when furi turns to leave again it does not feel incomplete the way it usually does. being granted the touch is more than she'd anticipated -- her heart swells -- she bites down the urge to call out after her or try to chase her. hadn't pushing her before she was ready caused them to fall apart in the first place? 

blixen is not very patient, but maybe she can learn, for furi. 

she stays frozen in place, her breath drawn until finally her ex girlfriend fades from view. only then does she breathe again, slowly retreating back into the comfort of max's den. she'll leave first thing in the morning, not caring if she still has to limp, and the spot where briefly her and furi touched will burn red hot for the weeks to come.
