“For- you know, helping me out back in town. You helped me escape that shopkeeper. And.. I didn’t help you at all, even though you were tied up in the same building that I went into to look for you..” Crow scratched his head. He hadn’t really had time to think about it, but he actually felt really guilty and kinda dumb for not helping Anita escape. “If it weren’t for you I’d be a cooked crow right now.” He added, referencing being burnt on a stake.
“Crow, honestly it’s ok. I think we should go now because they might shoot us if they find out we’ve raided their fridge” Anita laughed “you can come stay with me and my family if you want” she offered avoiding his eyes, her cheeks went pink as she blushed.
“Oh.. yeah.” Crow’s face brightened. “That sounds good! If- if you want to meet my crow family that’s good too.” Why does my face feel so warm? Did Dacaw pour soup on me while I slept?
“Cool I’d love to meet them. Come on we should go” Anita started towards the door
Crow eagerly followed her. “You’ve already met some of them.” He said, pointing to Brecaw, Nescaw, and Dacaw.
“They are your family? How do they hatch a human?”
(XD)
“Really?”
“Yeah. Cawander and Jacawn were the ones who mostly raised me. Some of the other crows at the time didn’t want to take me in.”
“I come from your average gifted family. Ya know, fights of powers across the table. My brother throwing fire at my sister and her dodging then retaliating with plants. It’s an interesting household, you’ll fit right in. Just don’t be surprised if they throw a party in your honour” she smiled at him the butterflies in her stomach fluttering around
