Whitebark Stream look, this comes as no surprise.

yuralria’s admission inspired a cohort of strange feelings in sobeille. she also missed her family, but the longing there was tempered by something fiercer; a drive for independence that told sobeille this was right.

still, as yura so adeptly said — it was hard being alone sometimes. and sobeille was keenly aware she was alone in a very alienating mental sense; a disconnect with her peers that she could not moor to safe shores no matter what.

yura’s almost cheery exclamation warmed sobeille from her brief spell of melancholy. yes - she be dis way. i t’ink she will find you very interesting.

excited by this, sobeille brushed past yura just close enough for static to spark off between them — moving out into an easy lope over the glittering snowpack.

i really enjoyed this thread!! I’ll make a new one tagging u both
