[She's tried to find a quiet place for herself, one where she can hopefully tuck away against a tree and let herself be alone for just a minute... just one minute.

It's going to be fine. She tells herself, it's going to be fine. They're going to find a way together. But the days are so long already, and to have Wolf explain things in such a familiar fashion strikes like thorns to the heart.

She hasn't quite cleared her face of wet streams against the skin when she hears Xie Lian call out for her, starting a bit from where she's tucked against one of the trees near the forest, wiping frantically at her eyes with her fist.]


I... j-just a minute, okay? I'll be right there...

[She hiccups under her sleeve, but gives her face another good rub with both her wrists and forces herself up to her feet.]
