She's not coming is she?
She grabbed up the box of azathioprine and quickly exited, retracing her steps and following AJ's scent once her paws thumped against the ground floor, having leap from the staircase with the boundless eagerness of a child.
She'd find the Godfather in a rearranged room, with a fire going and a blanket over her shoulders. The light of the flames hurt the hyenas eyes due to the sudden contrast and she'd quickly morph back into herself, still holding the large box tightly and eagerly. "Looks like we were both successful! But AJ! Looook!" She closed their distance swiftly, before kneeling right next to her, quietly grateful of the fire's radiating warmth as she did so. "So many! And on top of this... there's tons of other medicines up there! I bet we could sell them for alot. Most of the pain relieving stuff is useless to us, because of Berry. But it'd fetch a pretty penny among the nomags."
The happiness on her face was unmistakable - her eyes were practically gleaming, and they probably would've shined regardless of the fire literally dancing it's reflection in them. This meant AJ could last longer. The mere thought of losing her was too painful to bear, but she had to admit, every time the Godfather's stock ran low, she had found herself straddled with fear of that nightmare. At least this amount would keep that fear at bay for several months, and maybe in that time they could discover a more permanent solution.

[So I actually teared up a bit thinking about it. LOL. Too much Ivory channeling. P.S. "Nomags" = non-magic folk. Idk where I got that phrase but haha]

While she refrained from crying—an act that would be unbecoming of a Godfather meant to inspire the morale of others—containing how touched she was by the reaction was impossible. It reminded her about the degree her condition made those around her suffer, and that was the part of it that hurt the most. Whether she kicked the bucket or not mattered little in comparison to the psychological trauma she imprinted on those around her.
Her siblings were groomed for the same role as her. How many times had Justice contemplated bringing a permanent end to this farce for the long-term benefit of those around her? However, it was an option she could not go through. After all, the would be murdering Anniken in that case.
Again, perhaps.
Instead of expressing herself through words, she leaned forward and wrapped her arms tightly around Ivory’s frame. Planting a kiss on her forehead followed, as well as pulling her tighter against herself.
”Yeah—of course. Thank you, Ivory, I don’t know what I’d do without you,” she breathed. ”We can sell it, or make trades for other supplies of interest. But that’s not the important thing here. I—you, I—…” Her voice trailed off, and she nuzzled against her.
”Ivy…”

The emotion loitering in Justice's eyes was too much. But she knew it was coming, the embrace. When the woman's familiar arms wrapped themselves around her, her exhilaration mixed itself with something else; love? The kiss upon her forehead flooded her with that sentiment of unbound affection, a tenderness she did not want to give into, knowing full well that the sisters were probably bound to someone else. She had not felt this warmth for the Godfather, not in this exact degree, until the recent bout of her medicine running out. With the world's medicinal supplies dwindling by the day, the thought of losing her forever seemed to of woken up something inside her. But it was too late for that, wasn't it?
Ivory's senses were too saturated to focus on the practical side of their bounty, and she could could only agree with Justice that that wasn't what was important now. I—you, I.. Ivy. With their proximity, the emotion and the firelight dancing over them both, Ivory could not deny the impulse that was overcoming her. Already pressed together, her hand rose of it's own accord, lightly running up the Godfather's neck to find and cup her cheek with a fondness too imaginable to bear. Momentarily she'd then let her warm gaze settle on Justice's reflective orbs, before she tentatively leaned in, her gaze drifting to the woman's lips before she sought them with her own.

A familiar sensation made its presence known on her lips, and her eyes widened. The Godfather’s body language stiffened, the gesture temporarily transforming her into a statue. Pained heartbeats lit a fire inside of her chest as it accelerated beyond her comfortable levels. Unmoving, she rode out the gesture. Thoughts crossed her mind, whether she should continue it or not. Hastened breathing followed, but she managed to inch herself back.
”Ivy—“ she started, not a look of declination in her eyes, but a bottomless sorrow. ”You know I feel that way, too. I really do. But…”
The woman directed her attention to her side.
”I don’t need the help of my eye to see what would happen. Foremost, being the good person you are, you would never forgive yourself. After that, another person would take the fall, too. It’d destroy them,” she said solemnly, moisture bridging at her eyes. ”You’ve already gotten hurt today. I can’t keep hurting you people like that. I don’t want to keep hurting people.”

The Godfather's stiffening was enough of a tell for her to know that what she had suspected was true indeed. When she inched back, Ivory allowed it, and though Justice's words and eyes were full of potential yearning, she could only smile back, lightly and with understanding.
As the warrioress spoke, liquid brimming her eyes, Ivory would only shake her head, a hand simply rising to wipe away the liquid before it threatened to fall, not wanting AJ's face to be tainted by such emotion. "Don't worry, dear. I understand. I had a feeling you might of been with someone. I guess I let emotion decide to find out for me, rather than just asking." She playfully tapped the wolf's nose as she allowed her body to part it's closeness to her, "You haven't hurt me, though. And even if I had to take a thousand lashes for you, I would. You'll always be my beloved friend and leader, you can't break that, even if you tried."
She knew her affection toward Justice would not erase itself so easily, but she was okay with being there for her, till the bitter end, regardless of the status of their relationship. To accentuate that, she threw her arm around her shoulders and brought her into a side-ways hug, grinning from ear to ear, as her golden gaze falling upon the shimmering flame. Her loyalty to the she-wolf was more than romantic, sexual or friendly, after all. It was unconditional.

A faint taste of iron found its way into her mouth. She knew this was going to happen eventually, but she never expected it to feel this horrendous. Swallowing neglected saliva and the source of the acute, rusted flavour, the Godfather bobbed her head in a weak nod in response. Without its usual strength, she forced a smile onto reluctant lips.
”Yeah—you too,” Justice lead, ferrying as much convincing acceptance as she could into her expression. At odds with herself, the sense of yearning did not diminish. However, she abstained from causing irreparable damage; she refrained from being so selfish—contrary to popular belief. ”I want you to know, I’d do the exact same for you. No matter the nature of this, that’s always going to be the case.”
Leaning against her in resignation, enjoying the warmth the embrace heralded, she chuckled dryly. ”Do you mind if I catch some sleep like this, Ivy?”

"I know you would." Ivory leaned into her as well, her eyes fighting against the moisture that insisted on arriving. She accepted this, though. She had faith in AJ's Eye.. if she had chosen someone else, it was because it was for the best. Besides, they've had seven years to be more, so this must be the way it was meant to be.
"Of course not.." Her grin had become fainter, and her voice tettered on something solemn, but she wrapped the blanket around them and closed her eyes with her face against the fire. It had been a long day, but regardless of the events, emotional and otherwise, she was still pleased to be by the fireside, sharing warmth with this very special creature known as AJ.
