val couldn’t read meerkat’s mind, yet he could sense hesitancy, which he misread as unease about him. was it because he’d been welcomed back after leaving for the zillionth time? ah, shit. hey! yeah, i’m val… rosalyn and erzulie’s son. well, that wasn’t patently true but val would burn that bridge when he got to it.

are you.. meerkat? searching the repertoire of his memory, val thought he might have seen her once at a pack meeting months past. you okay? if it’s about me, uh… i promise i’m friendly. I just wander a lot.
