Raven's Watch silverwave

Was it good, that she would be alone?  Bridget’s judgement wavered.  Then it steeled itself again against a single thought.  If Teya needed her, she would not say she didn’t.  The habit of caretaking, second guessing and assuming needs, was one that she was consciously learning to break in the closer relationships in her life.  She could not approach loved ones as a problem that needed to be fixed.

I’ll come visit, at the very least.  Let you know how the kids are doing, and take any messages you want back.  I always find work worth doing when I travel.  It will be nice to have the excuse.  She didn’t need one, but it felt  right to stick around for a little while.  If she could help ease Teya’s guilt around leaving Brecheliant in the process? All the better.

Fifteen days was a long way to travel if she did not brush up on her hunting beforehand.  She couldn’t count on any help to make up for a bad string of luck.  Getting in some practice with Amalia suddenly sounded better than ever.

I don’t know what the future is going to look like.  But as long as you want me in it, you won’t have to worry about being alone.  I don’t care what happens, or how I fit in whatever comes next.  I’ll be there.  Bridget was not a wolf who planned for the future, but this she knew with absolute certainty.  She didn’t need a road beyond that.
