Dragoncrest Cliffs break stuff

hux seems a little bothered, but that makes sense, blix figures. she knows nomi is unhappy with him but not the full story - she doesn't think coming back without mother is enough to warrant his branwoda status but she also doesn't doubt her nomi must've had good reason. doesn't mean she's gonna treat him any differently - it's just the way things are until hux proves himself again.

besides, there's more important things going on right now, like gardening. he explains the soil needs to be exposed to the open air even in winter. "what about when it snows?" she asks, curious and unfamiliar with the strange stuff's affects on the earth. but she perks up when he asks if she wants to help again, chirping "sha" as she falls into place beside him, digging at the nasty dead leaves and bark with gusto. the rest of their afternoon passes peacefully as blixen quizzes hux every so often until the garden is spic and span once more.
