Lose some, Gain some

[Claudius Aston]

Whee And I agree!

[/html]Once Claudius was able to spit out what he was trying to say -- that Eclipse could keep the horses -- she visibly brightened and was soon smiling again. He knew how difficult it could be to talk to him, so he figured that her serious expression was one of concentration. He nodded quietly when she said that she would take good care of them. From what he'd seen so far, his first impression was quite good, so he found himself trusting her. He was normally quite wary of those outside of AniWaya and he had a great fear of being duped by someone else, but he didn't think she would try to hurt him. He felt good about this decision.

"Wuh-one da-a-ay, yuh-yes," he replied, smiling. When she bode him farewell, he replied with his own: "guh-goodbye." He watched as she left with the horses and was all at once relieved and happy. He was relieved that they had found a good home and also rather glad that he would not have to bring them to the stables himself. Although really, he could have always asked her to come into the territory to bring the horses to the stables. He knew that his real fear was not of horses, but of the difficult memories of Liliana. He wanted to remember her and honour her memory, so he knew that this was the best way. By spreading her memory to more and more luperci, it meant more would remember her. This seemed to be the most honourable thing to do. [html]
