heavy dirty soul

Steel wasn't used to being approached. He didn't put off the vibe of someone who was.. overly welcoming. Today, though, his heart was a bit lighter, and his step had a bit more bounce to it than usual. Honestly though, that wasn't saying a lot of Steel - who, like his namesake, wore a cold exterior and tended to not express his feelings outwardly. He moved quietly through the tall pine trees, paying little attention to his surroundings, other than his nose's slight twitch as he searched for the scent of prey nearby. He hadn't expected Valentina to move to him so quickly, and with so little warning. Her voice made him flinch slightly, as he hadn't anticipated it, as his head swung to the side to face her. His packmate's posture was confident and sure, and he recoiled slightly as he grew aware of her. His nose wrinkled in slight confusion at her words. She called him.. a cutie? Was she joking? Perhaps she was being rude, in some strange way. "Hello," he'd say slowly, his voice quiet as he slowed his pace. "Do you need something?" Only the worst possible things began to flood his mind. Was Esarosa okay? Her smile said it was nothing like that, but he couldn't help but worry nonetheless, poised lightly on his paws as though to flee at any moment. |
