The Tangle bird watching goes both ways

Are you lost?

Sif pauses, ears swivelling back. She knew those words, of course - they were simple enough. What she didn't know was the answer. Is she lost? Has all this just been too good to be true? She'd not seen Wardruna since the meeting with Poet... he was always with Noma, hidden away behind the borders of his pack.

Maybe they would never be together. Maybe she and her girlfriends will always be scattered to the four winds.

But she knows what Furi means. She knows that unpacking her lack-of-a-family drama is not what the other girl wants. So Sif swallows her uncertainties and gives Furi a polite smile and a wag of her tail. "No - not lost," she assures the other, and as the words leave her mouth, she feels buoyed - centered. "I haff to get back," she says importantly, tail wagging once more. She'll just go out and find Wardruna, and hang out with her girlfriends, and look for a home for them - and everything will be okay.

"Goodbye, Furi!" she chirps, booping noses with the younger girl before - all at once - wheeling away.
