Sun Mote Copse There's no peace in quiet

If Fennec knew she'd gotten him she'd be far too pleased with herself, so it was fortunate his final comment didn't give any of that away.  She let his admission stand, mainly because she wasn't about to state the obvious.  He always overthought things.  It was part of what made him so adorably boring to her.

This was a hard, hard thing he was asking her to do.  She knew the concept of eye rolling and definitely had a hard time controlling when she gave the expression of one.  You're lucky I'm such a loving and caring and wonderful sister.

She knew that next part.  She always knew that next part.  It's just so much more fun to bottle it up unhealthily and then release it on unsuspecting strangers.  Fennec might have been teasing, but the statement wasn't wrong.  That tended to be her modus operandi.  But yeah, I know.  The last bit she let out a bit of a breath.  She'd been more genuine this conversation than she usually liked, but screw it, she knew Fig had her back.  She still wasn't really ready to talk about... well.. any of it.  But maybe at some point when they could laugh about it together.
