Emberwood never coming down

lavender is anything but good. a younger dawn might have probed, said this bluntly, but now she only meets her younger sister's gaze evenly, quiet as she explains. she only nods when lav claims she's good; she knows enough to know she's not. she considers revealing the events of last spring, but decides against it; not now when she doesn't know whether it will help or hurt.

"I'm good," she answers, meaning what she says for the first time in months. "I'm starting a pack, to the north — whitebark stream." pause, and then, "sunny's there, with two of his kids. they've had a rough time of it, recently; we've all had, so I wanted to give us a fresh start." she waits to hear how lav will receive this before making her offer, half-wanting to pull the younger girl into an embrace once more.
