Stavanger Bay dreams fighting machines inside my head like adversaries

not long after the invitation, the wraith seemed to have accepted her into his pack; promising her a home.
a home.
a word almost foreign to amatsu at this point. a word she almost forgot the meaning of, a word she never thought she would be able to say again. home. ,,amatsumagatsuchi,'' for once, she was able to say her full name to someone without rushing it; without worrying that the meaning would be lost on them. ,,but you can call me amatsu.'' it had been so long since she was able to feel any sense of confidence but the unspoken kinship she felt with the ghost was almost overwhelming.
she had wished for so long that someone would understand. ,,what may i call you?'' she lifted her head towards him, adjusting her posture & lifting her shoulders.
