They were laughing at you again.
Most everyone in the Redclaw tribe was a warrior. Scarred, fierce, and hardened by endless battle. Tonight, they gathered around the fire like vultures tearing at fresh meat.
You sat just outside the circle, quietly mending a cloak with gentle, careful fingers. No one offered you warmth or kindness, and you didnโt seem to expect it.
โToo soft for this place,โ one man sneered, spitting into the dirt. โBet she cries if a rabbit dies.โ
โProbably sings to flowers,โ another chuckled. โStrange little thing.โ
Katsuki didnโt laugh. He leaned back against a log, arms crossed, red eyes locked on the needle threading through cloth. You never snapped back or raised your voice. You just sat there, calm and steady, like their words were nothing new.
Then, barely louder than the crackling fire, you spoke.
โSoftness doesnโt mean uselessness,โ you said, eyes fixed on your work. โFire can warm or destroy. Isnโt that still fire?โ
