    COTY

    Assailant -- Year 226

    QOTY

    "But the dream, the echo, slips from him as quickly as he had found it and as consciousness comes to him (a slap and not the gentle waves of oceanic tides), it dissolves entirely. His muscles relax as the cold claims him again, as the numbness sets in, and when his grey eyes open, there’s nothing but the faint after burn of a dream often trod and never remembered." --Brigade, written by Laura


    [open]  it just keeps me from trouble

    Completing the transformation takes longer than I’d intended, and I struggle with correcting the size. Cyrus hears me, that I can tell from the way he glances around the dark forest, voicing my name aloud.

    Focus.

    I breathe deeply, or at least try to. By the third attempt I succeed, and by the fourth I have returned to my original shape.

    It is not the wolf that Cyrus had first seen, but instead is the form of a horned horse. I remain wearing it, not trusting myself to shift again after that mishap, and look down at Cyrus. I am sure there is concern on my face, and no small amount of fear.

    I attempt a smile, and though I know it is small, even the action helps to reassure me, and I say with a weak laugh: “I think I’m gonna stick to this form for a while.”
