Solace
Her suggestion renders a change in him, and at first Solace fears she has frightened him off. But he doesn't turn to go or immediately mutter some refusal - he stands and thinks over her words. Maybe it is her lack of experience, but his indecision causes her to like (or trust?) him more than she would have a charming stallion who smirked and said all the right things.
When the grey's dark hazel gaze finally lifts to meet hers she smiles, allowing herself to read into his beaming features more than his cautious words. "I'm glad." She says simply to Scissorhands with a smile which says more than her words.
When her fresh pale face turns back to Fern her spirits are much higher than when she entered The Field. "Yes! Come along with us, and we shall be three traveling companions and nothing more - to make the journey a litter more interesting for each. Then when we reach Hyaline you can make up your minds where your wandering hearts will adventure to next." The lightheartedness she speaks with could easily conceal the many hours of sleeplessness adventurers and their wandering hearts had given her. Too many nights this last summer and autumn she had spent alone - without her mother or twin to warm her. She knew a wanderers restlessness all too well, even if she had never felt the urges herself.
you are my sunshine
