for @Ragnar; the day before her heat
it had been through no other fault than her own to let that delicate drowsiness lead her to the rose's rest the night last; nothing to be said for the way she'd found her way into his heavy arms as she had; nestling against the steadiness of him with her own worn, wearied hums. a fortnight, since their first questing touches; since he'd made her weak enough beneath the press of his mouth to her ruined cheek; since she'd given up the mask she'd donned always for impassivity's sake and let herself wilt at his shoulder with a small tremoring heart-cry. ...and how, only hours past, she had startled from that languor. how she had taken herself from the sanctum of him furled about her so easily; too easily, and how she'd run herself rid of him and her delayed, deadlocked court to where she is now —
lean limber muscles seizing as she rouses with a terrible snarl; shivers rucking through the lumine frame, thin shoulders cowled into her neck and the gloss of fur along her spine untangling in the upswell of a rude awakening. churning up roots and short iceland grasses when her pearlmade gaze lifts to the jut of stone and snow, hung over her like a roof without rafters save the meager foundations of earth itself.
farther, the nightingale could fly further; knows she could and can follow the frenzy of her thoughts over the very edge of the world. she scrambles about, scuffing her paws beneath her as she picks her ragged, roving body up; unexhumes herself from her temporary outpost ( a regrettebly clever cover, really ) and begins to march her way through the white, high-stepping weeds and generous clumps of what's been covered still by the late winter. let spring never touch these sacred northron climes.
let spring never find her.
