Everything just seems to be falling in to place. He has a wonderful family, a friend, finally and, as of recently, possibly a new home of his own. For the first time in his life he feels like he has a place in the world, a small place, but it’s his all the same. And, all in all, life is good.
There’s a wide smile on his face as he walks into the meadow, and a bounce to his step that’s never been there before. There’s a new confidence to him, a new openness. For the first time his anxiety isn’t holding him back and he’s looking forward to the future with anticipation.
He’s waltzing through the centre of the meadow, head held uncharacteristically high, when the girl first approaches. His brown eyes catch on her strange scaly markings, but continue on to her face with a welcoming smile. He knows much about being different, he isn’t one to judge based on an odd appearance. “Hello there!” His head leans forward so that their eyes will meet at the same height. “I’m Lauchlan, what’s your name?” He finds it a bit strange that she’s out here all alone, being so young. “Where are your parents?”
