Though her body ached and was too large and sore to ignore, the sable-shaded woman had given very little thought to the things growing inside her. They moved these days, shifting this way and that. It was an eerie sensation, and not one Eris found particularly enjoyable. If anything, these tiny signs of life only served to further estrange her from the little things taking shape within her. It was now concrete that there would be children in her life -- no longer were they a card to deal against her mother. They would be children, soon enough -- sooner than even she could imagine. That they would have come into her life so quickly was mind-blowing; it seemed like the day before she had been with Larkspur. Now they would have children together, they would choose names together. It would be too easy to trust all of it and fall into a rhythm here, but the sable-shaded woman had been here before. Eterne should have been a home forever; she should have found happiness there, and maybe she almost did, but she had also endured the aftermath. Trusting him and trusting this place too fast would get her nowhere.
“I was born up north,” she responded, chartreuse eyes studying the other woman in curiosity now. Tayui did not appear to be that old; Eris herself would be four soon, and that was at least as long ago as the fires had occurred. The sable-shaded canine did not know when this had occurred; it had been in that great span of time when she had been away from this place, but it seemed like forever ago. “I lived very far south in the desert and came back here eventually,” she said, shrugging slowly and neglecting to mention her own history with Inferni. “It's at least a lot more comfortable here in the summer,” she said uneasily, trying to familiarize herself with the other canine. A faint nervousness had risen in her with the closer scrutiny of the pale canine, and Eris fought to keep from fidgeting beneath Tayui's focus.
