He smiles, a little, and asks, "may I join you?"

"The next time I return here, I will be bringing Snowmane and Coalblack with me, if you are still interested."

no subject
Date: 2006-06-02 08:22 pm (UTC)A short, bitter laugh.

"I know he would never ask it of me, but living up to my father... it is impossible. And yet it is what they all expect."

Date: 2006-06-02 09:00 pm (UTC)The ground becoms very interesting for a moment.
"Well. They can expect all they like of you -- and you can too -- but we'll never be anyone but us." He shrugs. "We're not our parents."
