Dragoncrest Cliffs and i will grow like you

helix assures her in more ways than one -- actually, come to think of it, she's similar to nomi in a way blix finds comforting. she hasn't had the opportunity to mourn nomi's departure, even if it is temporary, and somehow she finds herself feeling something close to home-sickness. (because home, after all, is more than geography). nodding, she forces herself to let go of the feeling. "thank you," the -- the commander mumbles, aware once more of her own youth. but she has grown so much in her short time and if nomi and helix believe in her and will help her, maybe she has a shot at this. 

"i've only really acted as a gona, too," she admits, "we don't often encounter other packs here, but still, diplomacy makes me --" well, bored " -- nervous." it doesn't seem like helix has a great deal of experience in that arena either but she will take what she can get, frankly. "is there anything i should be --- that i should be doing, now?"
