i scream for you

Osprey was glad that Crete joined her game to distract their thoughts from all that had happened lately. When she would be alone, she would think about their mom, their pack, their childhood and mourn in solitude, making it easier to move on and act, as everything was fine with her. She was glad that she was born with a vivid imagination and a fictional world (mind palace), where she was able to hide, when all didn't go that well in the real world. The only sad thing was that there was no way she could bring anyone there with her. Just pretend that it was possible.

"A big one?" Osprey tried to translate the smug grin on Crete's face. She guessed she would also have looked the same way, if she had seen THE big one. "Can't be," she told him, pretending not to believe the statement. "I am pretty sure that it wasn't as big as the one I saw on my way here. Can you imagine that it was so big that it's head was literally in the clouds?"
