Redhawk Caldera i'm searching for a song tonight.

When Liffey spoke Eljay attentively listened, feeling guilty about what he had said and implied, but also wanting to hear her opinion on what he had said. It seemed like Liffey was sad that mommy was so busy, too. It made Eljay think back to when mommy had given birth to Liffey, Lagan and Lucy, and how she had almost died — he'd felt angry towards the pups, too, and now there were more pups. And what if mommy would be pregnant again later, what if she were to have more pups yet?

Liffey's issues seemed different altogether, or at least her solution was. Eljay's eyes widened when she said that she needed her own life, as he immediately thought she meant leaving. And he didn't want her to leave.

She added that she didn't think it meant leaving, but what did it mean, then? "I don't think you need to change your life," he said in somewhat of a murmur, feeling like the words he said were weird and didn't really show what he meant. "Or.. that you should have to. I don't... Maybe we — maybe I should just be a better son." Maybe if he was a better son, she would have more time for him again and she would be proud of him. Pride of his parents was the only thing Eljay had ever wanted, but he never felt like he had ever really attained it.
