in my dark times

Icarus's posture was timid and unsure, growing more tense with each step he took. His eyes lowered to the ground as she began to speak, for he'd gotten a quick look at her and.. truthfully, she looked a bit terrifying. Like maybe she'd won more fights than she'd lost, and he couldn't say the same went for him. Shuffling his paws, he heard her speak, finally gaining the courage to lift his gaze again to get a better look at her.
Yep, she looked as rough as he'd thought. Her face was scarred and she wasn't smiling, though she didn't look like she was angry either. 'No, not now at least,' she answered him, and his nose wrinkled, a slight look of bewilderment crossing his features. Did that mean he might be interrupting something soon? Did she want him to leave? He took another step forward, tail flicking as he curled very slightly between his hind legs. "I.. my name is Icarus Walker," he would offer tentatively - as though offering his name might quench any uncertainties she had.
