Starling's oddly attentive eyes noticed the fatigue almost instantly, his smile fading just slightly before he decided it was charming. It wasn't because he was lazy, no...Cath was strong, he certainly liked to explore, it seemed. The heat in his chest blossomed even more, spreading all the way to his toes, and he couldn't help the smile on his face. Ah! So he was very new. A week in. Starling stared at him from his paws, blue eyes catching the shine in Cathaoir's eyes. "I've n-never b-been anyw-where but h-here.." He said softly then, his cheek on his paws. "B-but I've s-seen a lot of i-it...I c-can sh-show y-you the p-prettiest of pl-laces.." He whispered softly, closing his eyes. "W-water that r-reflects the suns-set so p-perfectly, t-trees th-that are al-always red, th-the densest o-of fo-forests teeming w-with life..." He whispered softly before his eyes snapped open in surprise as Cathaoir rested his chin on his skull. Heat rushed across his cheeks before he smiled softly, shifting forward slightly to try and get more comfortable, and nudge his chin to the nape of Starling's neck. Cathaoir was exhausted, but Starling still wanted his herb...so why not a rest? This rock seemed safe enough, he hadn't heard any shifting from the rocks above, and he hoped the one before wasn't fortelling a bigger rock slide. But for some reason...he wasn't scared, Cathaoir was here. Even if his smarter mind knew the bigger boy wouldn't be able to save him from a full on rock slide, but he didn't care. He felt safe, comfortable.

"You c-can sleep i-if you'd like..." He breathed then, softly as he closed his eyes. But sleep wouldn't come to him, and for several long minute silence settled around them. Questions circled in his mind, growing louder and louder by the moment. He craved to know more about this strange boy he had miraculously found. He longed to be a master in everything Cathaoir. Finally, he blinked his eyes open. "H-hey Cathaoir..." He whispered softly, wondering if the boy was awake or not. "Wh-why did y-you come to Alac-critis?" He asked softly, closing his eyes again, wondering if perhaps he had fallen asleep after all. But could he sleep with his mind reeling like this?
