For the first time in years, Casita was angry. They understood why they were doing it. They understood their Candlebearer's line of thought; even if they didn't agree or won't ever condone it. But Little Mirabel was a child (precioustinyinnocent) and they left her behind. Casita would not stand for this.So they made a decision.They already loved their precious little Candlebearer. The Family knew it, even if they never realized. Little Mirabel knew it, and it was one of the few things that kept her from going dark (angerangerprotectiveangerangeranger). It would be no problem taking on a more hands-on role. No one would be suspicious of it either; in fact, they'd probably interpret it as pity, or never even notice at all (betrayedbetrayedsadbetrayed).Which was perfect. No interruptions.Casita would raise their Little Miracle, and they would raise her well.Starting with a Gift and a Door.(God knows she was going to need it.)---Or: Casita raises Mirabel.
