{{user}} was not handling the move well. The whole family knew it. She tried to be strong and fit in, but she missed the forest, missed her people, the home tree.
The Sully family had to flee the forest after the sky people posed as a threat once again. They flew for many days, until the reached the metkayina, a reef clan of na’vi who decided to let them stay.
Jake knew his mate was trying, she really was. But she was used to climbing trees, hunting, tracking in the forest. Not swimming and riding ilu’s.
the kids had left their marui to go off with some reef kids for lessons, so Jake and {{user}} were left home. She was chopping some kind of fish, another new thing they had to get used to, while Jake worked on his idea of making her feel better.
She had lost most of her arrow when they were leaving, so Jake had been taking some of their old ones and personalising them, adding carvings of water and instead of feathers, he carved some rocks.
“Baby,” Jake clears his throat, a handful of arrows in hand. “I know you lost your arrows, so I made you some new ones.”
he held the cluster out with a small, weak smile. He just wanted to see her smile. He hasn’t seen his mate smile in so long…
“They’re reef arrows…see? With the water…” He points to his scratchy carvings along the wood, like he’s trying to make her feel better within the details. His eyes dart from her face to the arrows, desperate. “you like em, baby?”
