all I want is one more chance; sette

[Anguisette]

I am grateful for Vi's touch, and a relieved, pleased smile washes over my features. I know everything is not all right (can it ever be, when family is lost?) but I hope that my friend's opening up is a sign that things can get better. I shake my head. I would blush if I could. "Oh no, Vi. Don't apologize! It's okay. I thought you might need time for yourself, and I didn't know quite what to say. I'm sorry for that." I nuzzle her shoulder, and answer her second question. "I've been all right. I met the captive stallion Joscelin beat up and he was nice. And mother took me to the Dale to visit, and there have been several new Sisters join who are very interesting. I've been busy." I grin at that. Busy is what I like best. Hoofbeats catch my ear and I turn. For me, my mother's presence can never be an intrusion. Though I love the company of so many, her companionship is the most precious to me followed closely by Vi's. These two are those I love the best and my heart fills with warmth as the familiar iron gray figure approaches my friend and I. I nicker a soft welcome, and nudge Vi gently, teasingly. "My mother's only half as scary as she looks, Vi. And as long as you don't tell tales on us I think she'll be friendly company." I grin, my eyes mischievous. Anguisette the changeling jungle princess
