Redhawk Caldera Damocles

last post for me! feel free to post once more or just archive :)

Quixote's response pleased her, though she did wonder if he truly meant it as passionately as she would have preferred. There was something so robotic about dutiful wolves like these. He seemed more eager to please than he was willing to actually share and on one hand, Fin appreciated that seeing as she was spectacular bad at emotions. But in this, when it was so important to be able to trust the wolves at her back, a little blatant honesty would've been nice.

But there was no helping it, and Fin didn't have the energy. She nodded in answer to his words, but offered none of her own that would continue the conversation. "Let's hope it's enough," she replied, leaving it there. After a beat, she nodded to him as her way of bidding farewell, then turned to head back to the rendezvous site, thinking some time with her family might be just the thing to settle her nerves.
