Fern was questioned once already, and for a long time, though her answers were not spread outside of older packs, older garou, many of whom just don't think to tell the cliaths and fosterns anything. She sulks a bit in Phoebe's view, shrinking in on herself. The look on her face, furrowing her brow and screwing up her mouth, is wincing and pained.
"I didn't meet them," she says, zeroing in on that one word, that one tiny piece of what Phoebe said. "I hunted them. I had to get good ones, ones that matched. Cuz you have to look at the pieces like they're a mirror of you and you think about --"
She hesitates, her words coming faster for a moment before that beat of renewed wariness. "While you eat up the heart," she adds quietly. "You think about how you're just dead meat and a body moving around because of the fire and how he's inside you making the fire but you're just... you're just pieces, but he'll hold you together."
Fern is so small, making her tall and willowy frame so little, that she almost seems to physically grow shorter. "You know? Because he's the strongest thing. You know?"
Repeated, her voice tinny,
but how could they possibly know something like that?

my whole life is thunder.
