She seems like a good egg. She has that gentle natured look in her eye, and her smile is bright and warm enough. I imagine her as a mother, and the thought comforts me. I, myself, never knew a mother. She had left me and my sister the day we had been born, or at least that is the last time I remember seeing her. Even when Lecter stole me away from my family, only my father had come (bless his soul). I imagine I should be more distraught about this...And I was, I had been at least. When I was a child I hated her, I felt cast aside, betrayed by her. I felt as though she had taken one look at me deformed leg and run. I had carried that bitterness around inside of me for the majority of my life, even now I consider how new this sense of calm is. The lack of bitterness is something I enjoy, I never was meant to be a bitter child. My father had raised me to be kind and good, and even Lecter had not managed to squash the goodness within me. If anything, he had nurtured it (though this of course had not been his intent). I do not think I forgive her, but I have certainly come to understand that bitterness will only make my life harder, not hers. And why should I give her such power over me?
I realize I have drifted away from the conversation I am currently engaged in. A sheepish grin is offered and my attention is returned to the pretty mare in front of me (who does look distinctly like Tilapia. Speaking of which, fish are slimy and slippery...One should really never trust another that is named after such a devious creature!). Her words amuse me and I cannot help the chuckle that rumbles in my chest, spilling easily off my tongue. "I never was one to toddle anyway." Cocking my head to the side only faintly I subconsciously shift my weight. I like Althea, I do. No need for mind reading, though she could not know this yet. I never was one to waste my time pretending to like those I did not. "So what's fun to do around here?" It can't all be hiding in shade and drinking from ponds, with breaks only for idle chatter. From the looks of things, some serious drama must go down sometimes.
