I know we have another but this can be quick <3 just something I wanted to get up before things move too much

It wasn’t hard for Fennec to guess how the next few weeks would go. She didn’t know what she dreaded more; Germanicus returning and telling the truth or him returning and choosing her, forcing her to wonder if he was being honest with himself or with her.

She couldn’t compete with love. And if the choice was ever going to be her then he wouldn’t have gone in the first place. There would have been no choice to make.

She had promised to wait. But if he chose what she suspected, she needed to know what came next. She had no desire to lead this place; her title had only ever been to stand beside him.

She’d done so many things for him. And again her attempts, her sacrifices, were repaid by disloyalty and a relationship built on a foundational lie. That the entire thing had been doomed from the start.

She wasn’t sure if she could get past this even if he chose her. She had only ever asked for one thing - and he’d lied to her face when promising it. Over and over again.

She needed to speak with @Killdeer. Fennec sought him out on her return from Epoch, both to check in and to ask him a question. She knew what she wanted to do… but she didn’t know if he would see it as a gift or a betrayal. It was hard to guess at anything anymore.
Fenn is blind, and as she's older, will take all of her character insight from tone.  If you are ever uncomfortable with an assumption she makes, please let me know!
