Weejay shifted uncomfortably, caught between the wishes of her brother and her father. She loved them both, enormously -- and wished they could just see eye-to-eye on some things..
... But that would change who they were fundamentally, and she knew that -- but it did not stop her from silently wishing to herself that they could put aside their differences just this once. Feeling Elfie's gaze upon her, Weejay knew what he was thinking and felt quietly ashamed for her previously uncharitable thoughts. "I want to go see the moss.." Weejay answered lamely, giving Elfie her most imploring gaze: "it's sooo pretty. And it has these little stems --" her voice took on an excited babble, for she really couldn't hep herself -- "I think they're like flowers, but moss-flowers! I want to see if they bloomed yet, cause I noticed they were bigger last t--" She stopped, realizing she had just incriminated herself by admitting she had been to the river recently without her father.
Shifting again, Weejay continued in a stifled but plaintive manner: "I just want to see the flowers."

so hold nice and close the ones who get to your soul,
so that when it is cold, you wont feel so alone
so that when it is cold, you wont feel so alone
