Sun Mote Copse vacation's all I ever wanted

Her brow began to furrow at his question, though Meerkat quickly schooled her face into a more neutral expression that did not give away the nature of her spinning thoughts so much. To tell the truth, she hadn’t really given it much thought. She had been living in the present lately, shunning the past and not bothering much with the future. But now, she cast her focus forward…

I hadn’t thought about it, if I’m honest, she admitted after a few beats of contemplative silence, but, Njord, I’m not married to Moonspear. I’m married to you. We chose our home under duress and I suppose now we have time to revisit that choice and talk about whether it’s best for us long-term. Just because it hadn’t crossed my mind before doesn’t mean it’s not worth discussing or that I don’t want to.

She touched her nose to his cheek again, a reassurance. Meerkat drew back and looked around, head cocking. Was this really the sort of place where he would like to make a home? She knew Towhee had put the idea for this trip in his head, though the copse wasn’t the only place they could theoretically settle.

I love it here, though I’m not particularly attached to it or any piece of ground, really. You are my home, along with the children. With that said, if I had to make a list of features I’d prefer in a territory, I’d find some of them here. What about you, though?

Her guts quivered a little at this. Meerkat feared that he would want to move back to the seaside someday. She wasn’t sure she could accommodate that, though she told herself to hear him out and keep an open mind.
