figured this could be set for after the storm & after ookami spends a couple days in Northern Tides... soooo about October 6th? Is that alright? <3
Returning home from Northern Tides, he felt different. While he was there, he met two others, but also broke his record for amount of cuts inflicted in one time. He didn't exactly know how to explain the way he felt.. just that it was different. It was so strange, he felt like he needed to cut himself, but he would look down at the inside of his forearms and picture how much blood was just pouring out of his skin and he would become disgusted. The thoughts of cutting himself were forgotten then, and he was glad for this, but he knew it wouldn't be long until he was unable to quit thinking about it.
And he was right. As he passed over the borders to his pack, the tingling sensation in his fingertips fired up. He had to cut into his flesh, but his wounds were still so fresh. He wanted to let them heal up a little, but what was the point of that anyway? They would just be broken back open soon enough. Those excuses seemed good enough to his mind because he was quickly running towards shelter where he wouldn't be seen committing self-harm.
Just as he thought he found the perfect place, music wandered into his ears. They perked up, towards where it came from. Then, he felt his heart lift. It lifted for the first time since he started this act and he felt happy for a moment. Then it stopped, and his heart dropped low. The thoughts of harming himself were for the moment, out the door. He had to find the source of this music.
It wasn't hard to find the small Austrailian Shepard, she was close. He could smell her from where he had been when he heard the music. His eyes found her and he walked closer to her, crossing his arms over his chest automatically. This hid the cuts and scars. But he didn't think about any of that, he was just so marvelled at how his heart had felt when he heard that flute. "Will you... Will you play some more?" He didn't know this female from Adam.. but he had to hear that flute's music again.
