Redhawk Caldera i need you so much closer.

blix feels close to buzzing out of her skin. she presses her nose briefly against nomi's shoulder, looking for - some sort of reassurance, before pulling away and stepping closer to mother. where's furi? she wants to see furi (when did that become more important than mother protect home make nomi proud and is it temporary, she wonders). 

the bustle of children that accompanies finley temporarily distracts her. the only wolf from the caldera blixen has really interacted with is towhee -- who as far as blix knows, is still pissed at her, but whatever, she was right -- and she doesn't really know much about kids, but they look like a feisty bunch. she likes them, she decides, watching them argue about going to war with their parents. "hey, pipsqueaks," the ginger says playfully, "if you wanna prove you can fight, you gotta take on me first - prove you're real gonakru." with her goal right in front of her, it's easier to calm down. protect mother, help keep watch of her baby cousins, keep everyone safe until nomi and dio and eske and furi come back to her whole.
