Mati had never been with anyone, in a way that Cambria had described them. But it wasn’t odd, or a difficult feeling to accept. It was nice, something that Mati wanted and something that she hoped would grow. She nodded her heard softly, steeping up to be the confirming entity at this turn in their path. She was set on this, secretly committing herself to something that she had yet to truly understand at it’s fullest. She wanted it, and no longer feared what might happen. Cambria had opened her eyes to it, showed her the door and helped her walk through it. She was ready to be led and to lead, and do what it took to keep them safe and happy. Mati’s smile widened at her next few words. Though Mati had been sure that what she felt for Cambria was mirrored in the girl’s heart, she couldn’t help but allow her heart to jump at the words that confirmed it. Cambria like them, together in the way they were.

Of course she would certainly forgive the questions that Cambi held. She was happy to explain anything for her, and her ignorance wasn’t seen as anything more then a small unknowing. Her surprise only lasted a moment, remembering that her relationships were not on for public display, and she was a bit ashamed of the fact. Her life was not something she thought to be significant, not in the way so that everyone would just know. But, it meant that she had not been spending the time with her mother that she should. It meant that in a way she had failed Anu. It was a job, being a parent. But there was also a responsibility in being a daughter, something Mati had not truly fulfilled. Yeah. She spoke with a smile and a nod. She was proud that she could say that Anu was indeed her mother, and that She raised us like her own. They were hers. Mati knew that blood tied two together, but thought little of it.

Their fingers stayed laced, and her violet eyes watched them as the room grew silent. She was so ashamed, so bitter and so scarred by the white female’s actions that she found it hard to look at the other girl now. The words that were spoken were harsh, and Mati had never heard such a thing come from the lips of Cambria. Her eyes were forced back to her face, making sure that yes they had indeed come from her mouth. There was no shock written on her features, though her ears tilted away with the rising uncertainty. The apology was unnecessary, You have every right to. Mati said, taking a deep breath and letting her eyes drift away. Gently she felt the other’s hand against her own, gaining a sense of comfort and strength from the contact. She has never tried to contact me, not since I found her burning down a house near the city, right after everything happened. I don’t think of her much, well I try not to. she spoke truthfully. She wasn’t important in the green eyes of her mother, and so the woman would no longer be important to her. Naniko had moved on, given birth to another litter and she could only try to help prevent that same neglect from happening to them.

Mati strived to be everything that her dam and sire were not, and to never see the seminaries that she shared with them. She would not be shaped by their blood.
