Blackfeather Woods bloom

Back dated... um, I don't know. After Tahani thread but before Taki.

Since Tahani had taken the news so well, she decided maybe it was best to tell Siarut by herself. Her sister by her side would make her feel better but she can’t begin to predict how he might feel about the whole thing. There’s already some level tension between the lot of them with Tomkin still out on his own and she doesn’t want to make things worse but any day now, she’s certain she’ll swell to the point where she can’t hide it. And if he’s the last to find out, or if she doesn’t tell him at all, well…
 
She shakes her head free of the thoughts and glances up, the night sky pouring into the red grove with only slight illumination. The moon hangs high even if she can’t see it but she knows it’s there. Her stomach already bulges and a scrutinizing gaze will easily tip someone off but she hopes for the cloak of night to buy her sometime until she finds the right words to say. After a moment, she lifts her nose and offers a low call, hoping her brother is home for the night.
