The autumn chill makes her shiver. Very soon it'll be leaf-bare, a time that brings bitter memories. Long ago she would huddle closer to her siblings in their nests. Their mother would tell them stories of the world around them. Funny enough all of them were raised in an abandoned badger den. She had felt safe back then with her mother and siblings. The harsh wind and it's screeching could not touch them here. Their home provided the warmth they needed for leaf-bare. On the nights where wind was particularly cool she remembered all of the huddling closer. Everything it seems was right there. Maybe they were all destined to be Windclanners and they didn't know it back then. Being born in an abandoned badger den was the first sign. The next sign was that they all had similar builds that they all became tunnelers. They all were a family of tunnelers. The bitterness began with spats. Her relationship with her mother was... Nonexistent. She dared not keep in touch with her sister and brothers for a time. And it seemed they didn't care for her, but it was at that time everyone began finding their own path.
Her path since she'd left her birthplace was filled with blood and greed. She had become a rogue and joined a group of rogues. It had been some time but it was around this time when she remembered a broken promise made with others. It was also this time where she became all too aware of her naivety and swore never to bear her heart to anyone again. She didn't like thinking about that time, but there was something about the autumn chill that brought her back. She shivers, only to realize hmm... It's not as cold. A paw is brought to her chest and she finally notices a bit more fluff than usual. Good timing. I won't be as cold, but the sand is still annoying to sleep in. Ugh but anyway. Leaf-fall was the time where she had lost half of her tail. It's difficult to forget such an event, yet every time she recalls what happened... I forgive you.
Nevertheless, despite her winter coat coming in, the wind is very much frigid tonight. Maybe sitting by the river was not a smart move, but she'd rather be here than get pelted by sand tonight. She shouldn't complain much anyway. It's been moons since she's huddled with anyone to keep warm or even move her nest close to someone else. For moons she had went to her badger set which she had decorated and spent the cool nights there or she would be found in the tunnels. It was humorous perhaps that she picked a sizable badger set given her small frame, but old habits die hard. If the lack of food and rogue attacks can't kill me, the last thing I want is the cold to take me out. Who knows maybe someone is dying choking on a mouthful of sand now. That's a joke. I hope not. That would suck. Again she shivers, this time sniffling. Her wounds still throb, but what could they do? They were ordered to push past their pain. I gotta figure out something to keep warm around here. There's gotta be some abandoned dens around the area.
It's then that she feels eyes on her, that she whips her head around to find Fogbound. Her mind betrays her, reminding her of his kindness. How he licked her wounds and offered to carry her. She shoves those thoughts down, no, this is Fogbound. The air is awkward between her and she understands that is her fault. She hadn't done their ritual of messing with him. Nothing she gave him. She had already thanked him for his kindness, she doesn't know what more could he want. In the end she sighs and turns her head back to the river. A sneeze escapes her, which is followed by a huff of annoyance afterward. He's still here isn't he? She swivels her head back to him and finally speaks to him. Well... Asks him a question, but she is indeed speaking to him. "What is it?"
/ @FOGBOUND weeps most of this is her going over past, but fogbound related she's just cold and shivering. has no idea what he wants from her given the fact that he's still around watching her.
