Charlotte is there with Erich; a ghost at his side. A pale little shadow, all breeding and huge pale eyes and sharp pointed elbows and pink-tipped hair. Unlike both Keisha and Erich, Charlotte is quiet. Watches the elders warily and holds her breath when Erich speaks up and holds her breath again but in a different way when he speaks up again and then her eyes are on his profile and a frown beetles between her brows and that frown is faint and reluctant and something else but not at by or for her packmate. Flicks a glance toward the elders and then back to the Keisha and then back up at Erich's profile.
Says, nothing, not a thing, nothing at all.
And still can't help but shine.
Says, nothing, not a thing, nothing at all.
And still can't help but shine.
But my heart is wild and my bones are steel
And I could kill you with my bare hands if I was free.
- Phosphorescent, Song for Zula
