on his siblings and homelessness

[vanagandr]

Find a way for all of us to be together, and I'm sure someone will make it worth your while.

Hel, maybe.

[ Yes, but Fenrir never cares what Barbet says unless it's something he can laugh about... or if the old ghost is calling him a dog. ]

She might not want to go anyway. She's not exactly chained up. [ A yawn. ] But it's not up to her, in the end.

[If Dorielle speaks with Barbet, she has never made any mention of it, but her mother was more than happy to narrate any of his comments.]

I guess it wouldn't be.

[She hadn't chosen to be apart either.]

[vanagandr]

[ Fenrir wouldn't doubt it if Dorielle did, or if she heard other things. Christine has her gifts, and he has his own. Together... well, as much as he would like to know what they might be like combined, Dorielle is the only one who does. ]

Restlessness. [ He offers it as an afterthought, a reason he might actually want to go somewhere when that's so against the norm. ]

[humanside]

These things are always finite.

[What a negative nancy that Dorielle is...]

[vanagandr]

Everything is.

[ Fenrir isn't too bothered, taking the moment to scratch his ears. ]

[humanside]

So we twitch and then we die.

[Her summation of the joys of living.]

[vanagandr]

It takes longer for some of us.

[humanside]

You don't need to remind me.

[A mortal girl, born of a mortal mother. They would die and he would lope on.]

[vanagandr]

[ And there's a cold nose pressing into her leg. Hel would watch over her. He's certain of that. ]

[humanside]

[It takes her a moment of consideration, but she eventually gives his head a light pat.]

I hope you'll remember to say goodbye to mother before you go. If you find something.

[Christine wouldn't know one way or the other. Wouldn't expect such a thing if she did. It's Dorielle's request.]

[vanagandr]

[ That's better than nothing, and he nuzzles her for it. ]

Of course.

[ Even if he does find something, that doesn't mean he won't be with them, too. ]
