The moment felt so intimate, so genuine. It was a feeling more intense than those which Akuti had felt when the two of them were matched limb to limb, for rather than a physical connection, the pair had seemed to meet on an emotional common ground where they could each find comfort in loss.

Akuti let the silence simmer between them as she fought back a low whine. It wasn't even that he had said anything to bring forth an emotional response such as sorrow, but it was the fact that he understood her and she was able to understand him, rather than one being judged for their past. Yeah, well, Akuti laughed, allowing the fragment to trail off. She used her paws to knead at the earth, making a small divot for the water to expand into. You deserve it, too, Day.
