Sunbeam Lair It feels good today

Never before had she doubted his loyalty to the tribe, and never would she need to. He had stated that he would never leave them, she had heard it clearly, clinging to each individual word. The thought alone that someday he might decide to depart left her feeling hollow, to sum it up, and made her want to ensure such a thing would never happen. If at any time that meant turning a blind eye, she knew she wouldn't do anything but exactly that. Of course, she was not convinced that he would ever give her a reason to do so, which allowed for her to focus better on the present. Between the words he said and his presence at her side—she felt she could ask for nothing more, for she knew not what else to ask for. "Hearing you say that makes me feel... euphoric," she'd murmured soon after, flashing to him a quick smile before looking ahead once more. It had felt strange to say such a thing, as well as understated. The knowledge of his plans to stay made her feel something that she could neither describe in words nor motions, and that made her certain that he was an important being in her life.

As it often went, the topic of conversation was directed her way, and she did not fight it. While speaking to the man about his thoughts and plans was, perhaps, a favourite activity of hers, Asterr knew she could not simply take. For balance to be achieved, one must give back for all that they've taken away, and such was a principle that she would not turn her back against. "That is true," the girl had mused. "Is there anything in particular that you would like to speak about?" There she paused in her steps, looking to him with a gentle tilt of her head. He was given the reins of the conversation, for she'd silently offered to him a chance at bringing forth any topic he very so pleased. Truthfully, the dragoness was quite interested to hear what he might come up with, as her expression displayed rather clearly.
