Hushed Willows You'll be my nightlight

I know we already have one so no rush <3

It seemed as if nothing could touch her now that her brother was here. The task of growing her children was a daily trial, but all that was forgotten in his presence. It was strange, she thought, to feel so much peace. Still, Reverie tried not to smother him; her time was split between each member of her growing family, and would soon be split even further.

It was difficult, though. Whenever she went looking for him and spent more than a few minutes searching, her heart started to race. It was stupid. She told herself often that he wouldn't have come here, he wouldn't have promised to stay if he didn't mean it. But promises could always be broken. And she'd always hated that about them. A promise was only placation parading as certainty.

Was she placated? She couldn't be sure yet. And now, Reina — oh, but she couldn't let that taint her time with him. Not yet. Not so soon. Reverie tried to put those thoughts out of her mind as she parted from her den to search for @Everett.
