[unsaid, but he knows it]

But you're here with me. You're pack leader. And that makes everything easier.

[it's the sense of belonging, being wanted-- it matters enough that perhaps it can outweigh everything else]

[ butts her forehead against his collarbone again. ]

...why am I...?

[ofobedience]

You said I belonged to Larkspur. You've done things to protect me. You seem to care what happens to me. You're strong and you're brave, even though things are difficult for you too. Those things matter to me. A lot.

[ time to start leaking again ]

That isn't... it isn't strength. It's... selfish.

[ofobedience]

How is it selfish?

[miraculess]

I don't want to be alone.

[ofobedience]

I don't think anyone wants to be alone.

[miraculess]

...not everybody knows they'll hurt the people they're with...

[ofobedience]

I don't exactly have the best track record with that, myself.
