post #200 for you, kuro!

There was no getting over the fact that Alastor had joined a pack just to be close to him. It made Aesop's heart do all kinds of funny things. Ah! Old young love. There would be time to overexamine later, to feel dread and anxiety alongside hope and euphoria. The here and now was devoted to just that: the present. Well, yeah, Aesop said, fumbling for words. I ain't askin' you to make any kind of decision now. Just... yeah. Think about it. 

Alastor asked where Moonspear was, and it took a bit of willpower to keep any negative tone out of his voice as he answered. It's, uh, right behind us, he said, turning to gesture at the climbing heights behind them. The mountain jutted up into the sky like a lance. It was easy to see that it lived up to its name. Once the moon began to fill out again, the tip of the mountain would catch it on its journey through the sky. That mountain right there. At least it was easy to find. I'll be glad to see you again. I mean, I'm fuckin' ecstatic to see you now. But... yeah. You get it.
