Redhawk Caldera the old days

Sorry my replies are so slow. I didn't use the absence log, but I've been traveling for about a month. :)

His answer made no sense. She couldn't understand how Drageda could help him, but Redhawk couldn't. How was life with a bunch of strangers better than life with family who loved him and had known him since birth? He was so concerned about being in the way, but how was it any different at Drageda? Wasn't he in the way there too? It both angered and confused her, but she carefully kept her expression neutral so as not to upset him or cause him to shut down. She knew that Eljay functioned on a level not much higher than that of a pup, and too much pressure would only close him off. Still, she tried to understand. "Get better from what, exactly? In what ways is Drageda helping you that we can't?" It baffled her that, after all the things they'd gotten through together, this was something that couldn't be fixed at home.
