i scream for you

For now, Crete didn't feel like playing charades to go into gruesome detail about the uncertainties of his place within Blacktail Deer Plateau with Osprey at the moment. He did not know if Peregrine being the other alpha changed things for the better or the worse. Crete did not want Hawkeye and their general dislike for each other to ruin the sweet reunion, and for the moment, tucked those thoughts away. Old times, Crete echoed through tenor of his thoughts, subconsciously nodding his agreement even if he didn't believe it wholeheartedly. Osprey's next, and for the moment last words, took a few moments to sink in, purely out of Crete's denial of the truth. He gave his sister a perplexed look, ignorantly assuming that Osprey meant March Owl was with Aether's grave most days, despite that deep in his heart he understood the true meaning of his dear sister's words. The truth, despite the pain and sorrow it wrought in his heart, crept upon him unbidden. A mournful, uneven breath drew from between Crete's lips and left an audible gasp of acknowledgment and pain. Both of their parents had passed from the world of the living, and though the thought that they were together in the land of the deceased brought a comfort; it was a hollow one to their mute son. Thank you for telling me, The gratitude seem twisted in the grasp of his sorrow and he touched his nose to Osprey's cheek once, wishing that he had been there with March Owl and her final hours and hating Tyrannus even more for never giving him the chance to be there for her.
