Overture Downs damn, she left me on read

id prefer someone from eh or lch :eyes: but it’s aw tho!

a friend had vanished without a word again and yet again the duty of searching for her fell onto max.  life has a funny way of repeating itself didn’t it? only this time things were a little different. 

she had traveled far from drageda with @Lava as an escort. the two didn’t speak to each other that much besides sharing their names. it made things all the more awkward and lonely.

despite their best efforts, saarthal was nowhere to be found. gone without a trace, just like feline. jesus. why did everyone she love have to disappear?

the harsh winter weather was their cue to call off the search and head home. oh god, how would mallaidh react when she came back empty handed? drageda? she trusted that her friend had informed them about her departure but she had been gone for so long. would they let her back in? well, time would tell.

a cold breeze swept over the wilds. two young wolves traversed through a thick layer of snow. they needed to wait out these frigid winds, so max scent lava out to go find a place to camp out for the night. “you look around here, i’ll go over there,” she ordered before trotting off.

this sucked. this all sucked. this whole journey would have been better if mallaidh was here. lava was nice and all, but he was so quiet and shy. his anxiety rubbed off on her and they both just ended up as two anxious train wrecks. well to be fair, mallaidh wasn’t the outgoing type either but it was different. she felt comfortable and safe around her and they could cuddle up in weather like this. with lava, well, that would just be weird.
