we can start wrapping it up now! 300+
She didn't know how to get through to her, to cut through all the pain and disappointment that was wrapping her sister up in a poisonous cocoon. Stubbornness seemed to be a trait of the Marino family, but she wished that for at least this once Ghita would let go of her own personal perceptions and listen to her. Discouraging as it was, to listen to her sister continue to doubt herself and degrade what she had done that day, Savina wasn't going to give up. She wasn't going to let her sibling do this to herself without fighting back against the negativity. "Sarei piuttosto colpevole di pensando troppo di lei di mai pensando troppo piccolo," she said fervently. "Lei era coraggioso e lei si è rischiato per la sua famiglia. Ciò è perché sono orgoglioso di lei. Il riposo non importa." The woman was silent for a moment before adding, "La mamma sarebbe stata orgogliosa anche." Her emeralds locked meaningfully with her sister's turquoise. If anything could get through to her, she thought the mention of their mother would.
Savina stayed quiet as Ghita argued against her own feelings of failure on the matter of what had transpired that day at the barn. Her logical side knew that the right thing had been done, but the fact of the matter was, was that she hadn't even known what was going on until it was all over. All she had heard what Mati's panicked call for help and the rushing of the pack to her aid. She hadn't known that it was her own sweet daughter that was in mortal peril. Being ignorant of the specifics and staying behind hadn't been easy, but if she had known that it was Cambria who was in danger, she couldn't say with any certainty that she wouldn't have gone to help her.
Tears stun at the back of her eyes, but she did her best to keep them back, to keep them from falling to wet her face. "Forse ho fatto la cosa giusta, ma neanche ho saputo ciò che succedeva finché tutti sono stati restituiti alla Residenza. Non ho saputo che era Cambi che era nei guai. Se non ho avuto so che avrei fatto..." The woman sighed before looking back up to her sister. "Come una madre è supposta per scegliere tra i suoi bambini? Non so che avrei fatto Ghita, non faccio realmente." The hand that wasn't covered by her sister's own moved to lay on top of Ghita's. Silence settled heavily over the room for a moment, and Savina took a long, shaky breath. "Suppongo c'è delle cose che non possiamo sapere. Ma una cosa che so è che lei non è un fallimento e lei non sarà mai un carico a me."
