from the past; Tiphon

[Katniss]

get up, get out, get away from these liars 'cause they don't get your soul or your fire Home. Her once-home, at least. Katniss hadn’t considered the Dale home ever since she had grown too uncomfortable here, ever since her worries had consumed her and made it impossible for her to focus on anything. There was a domino-effect of failures that had all stemmed from her own insecurities. And now, well… none of them had really left. She had set out to find this place again with all these thoughts of reconnecting and bravery. How she missed Reagan! And Lionel! And, well, Tiphon too. Thoughts of the gold-touched stallion made her stomach tingle in a way she did not appreciate, thoughts of how she had failed him as a mother to their children only loading on the reasons why going back to the Dale was not a good idea. But, there was the chance that he wasn’t there, right? None of them might be there anymore. They could have all left just as she did and found new homes somewhere else. She couldn’t believe that was what she was hoping for but it certainly would make this return easier. No explanations, no awkward encounters. That was the only thing stopping her from shifting into the seed of a dandelion and letting the wind carry her wherever it would. All she wanted was a brief conversation with a complete stranger so she could see how the Dale was doing and that was in. Brave (ish) in her thoughts, but in reality her legs trembled as she followed the path into the valley and summer-green eyes took in the sight of the kingdom for the first time in many years. She still felt it, still felt as though this was home, but she had ruined that before and did not have the heart to do it again. Taking in a steadying breath, Katniss reminded herself of the plan and made the descent into the Dale. katnissformer member of the dale plant shapeshifting mother of sauriel and eldane

so I figured I'd just re post from the old b2g boards, you can feel free to do the same! But I wasn't sure how much has changed in his life since that thread so figured starting new-ish wouldn't hurt
