[King North's advisor had always told the children that believing was the most powerful spell.

Sighing, Bun nuzzles his nose against Tatiana's hair before resting his chin on her head for a moment in a pseudo hug. He leans away then, smiling a little sheepishly as he pets Pasche's hair.]

...Sorry we've been such a worry.

[dentistry]

[ And that had merely cemented it further for her.

Tooth rustles her wings with a soft hum of contentment and reassurance at the nuzzle, tucking her hand against his arm and brushing the rough pad of her thumb against his skin. ]

You're not a worry. Neither of you are, and none of the pooka are.

[pooka]

We're lucky to've got such friends in th' East an' North kingdoms.

[They'd likely not be surviving if the kingdoms hadn't been at peace. He smiles for a moment, softly, and considers it-- no, they'd definitely be gone if not for the connection between the kingdoms.]

[dentistry]

And you always will, so long as I have anything to say about it.

[ The strength of the connection between all of them was the one thing that kept hope going, really. So long as they could keep the remaining pooka safe, then something could be done for the southern kingdom. Something that hadn't been done for the western, and that was something she knew her parents deeply regretted most days. ]

[pooka]

[If there was anything else Bunny had always believed, it was that the Western Kingdom would return. Nightlight and Sanderson's work couldn't have gone unnoticed. And if the Western Kingdom could return, then so could the Southern.

And Bunny knew how-- but with so many of the Pooka injured and exhausted, it was going to be quite a while.

He pauses for a moment, the small smile still on his lips.]

...Y' got any idea how many we've found yet? Haven't been able to check.

[The sisters of flight were... fierce about not letting him exert himself.]

[dentistry]

[ Shifting and rustling thoughtfully, as she takes her thoughts from the western to the southern-- they would both come back, but right now the southern kingdom and her people were in her care, and Tooth would do all that she could to restore them-- she hums to herself and looks out ahead of them. ]

We're in the twenties now, actually pushing on thirty.

[ Of course they were, they were fierce about many things. ]

[pooka]

[Thirty. Thirty is a good number. Thirty's a number worth living for, hoping for. It's not anything like it should be, but it's a good number to hope for more.

And it's a hell of a lot better than one.

Leaning closer to Pasche and closing his arms around her just a little, Bunny stares out ahead and swallows.]


...That's good.

[dentistry]

[ It's much better than one, or even the two that they thought they'd had until more had been found. Tooth knew that no kingdom could survive on thirty, but it was a foundation, where they could rebuild on what they could find. And she had no doubts that they would be able to rebuild.

Bringing her hand up, she gently settles it at the back of his neck, fingers slipping into the hair at the base of his skull. ]

They're bringing in more everyday, Edwin.

[pooka]

I know.

[Rubbing at Pasch's ears, Bun instinctively leans a little against Tooth's hand.]

And there'll be more. And once we're all done up, you an' Jack can see what I've got planned.

[dentistry]

[ Rubbing her fingers in small, massaging circles in his hair, she leans against him a little and reaches her free hand out to smooth back some of Pasche's hair from her face. ]

I can't wait to see it all. I know it's going to be amazing.

[ Not the same, but nothing would be the same. ]
