She had always loved Summer, though until he spoke in this moment, she hadn't fully realized it. Magpie nearly staggered as the familiarity of his scent washed over her, how those golden eyes still looked at her the same way even after all this time. How he knew her, effortlessly, and could read her heart and ground her with the simplest of words. He looked the same, and yet he had grown into himself— muscular, healthy and strong.
She longed to touch him, to say anything, but all she could manage was a whine— for she was suddenly stricken with doubt, though his eyes consumed her. It was too much to hope that he felt the same way, after what seemed like lifetimes had passed. The sound that escaped her held everything. Her sorrow, her longing, her joy in seeing him. Magpie lifted a trembling paw as if to step forward, but sat down hard when she found she couldn't trust her body to be steady.
"Summer," she finally said, voice a low and pained whisper. "It is you."
