“Thank you,” Vexen replied sincerely. She took the subtle offer of a brief conversation to eat up some time. “Blast didn’t hit me but the sound really messed with my hearing. Took me a while to catch up ‘cos I wasn’t alone up there. Some rebel shooters and them some stormies. Got spotted, but they were more worried about shooting each other up.”
The hand was welcome. Vexen had been bereft of physical affection for much of her life. Micah had given it to her in spades. For entire evenings she had settled down beside him and let him run a brush through her fur. All while he tried to coax her into getting on with learning to read and write. Those skills came easily now. She could even fly ships. She owned him everything.
“So…you’re like Aela’s sidekick and I’m like Micah’s. I think that sort of counts as cousins.” She let out a soft, chuckle. It was more like a content sounding growl than a human noise. It was only humour, but Micah was her family as far as she was concerned.
