Sun Mote Copse when you're off the phone, you wanna get a pizza.

this takes place somewhere between Fin finding Tegan at the borders and Finwood deciding to migrate to SMC, whenever that might be :D

Finley knew the way now. Truth be told, she would've preferred it if she'd been uncertain. Maybe even if she'd gotten lost in the wilderness for a few hours - anything to further stall the few moments of peace she knew her goddaughter would be enjoying before her aunt arrived and destroyed it all forever. Fin knew all too well what was in store for Wildfire once she learned of what had happened to Bat. She too had lost a child. She knew how drastically life changed with that loss. She didn't want to change Wildfire's world, not when she was on track again after turning her own life upside down. It was cruel. But it was also necessary. Not knowing sometimes was worse.

Fin paused once the scent of the pack's markings notified her that she had arrived. She loitered for a few minutes on the borders, pulling together her own composure. She hadn't known Bat well, but she had liked the girl. Her loss was only painful for Fin, but it was devastating for her son and would be for her might-as-well-be-daughter. This was going to be hard, but it would not be her time to grieve. She needed to be calm, sympathetic, but most of all just there. She couldn't be there if she was lost in her own remorse - not just for Bat, but for the last time she had delivered news like this to Wildfire. That time it had been devastating for her as well.

"Pull it together, Frog..." Fin murmured to herself, squeezing her eyes shut for a few seconds before opening them again and tilting her head back to summon @Wildfire to her. There was never going to be a good time for something like this.
