Living in the shadows

It seemed she was an observant one, as his response to her only made her question him again, and it was as if she saw right through him. Was he really that transparent right now? As he sat down near her, he realized that she was looking at him with a little more interest than he'd expect from a stranger. Her silver eyes were fixed directly on his as she waited for him to elaborate on his current predicament, and so he stared back at her. Sighing, he supposed there was nothing to lie about. Not that his brain would come up with any stories at the moment, anyways. At least he could have a slight chuckle at her words. "What's your story, pretty boy?" He didn't mind the attention, even if she was just teasing him.

"My pack's Alpha was defeated in a challenge, so I have nowhere to go right now," he said with a shrug, not wanting to appear overly upset about it, "I'm not much of a traveler, I suppose, so it's a little difficult for me to adjust to... freedom." It may seem a strange notion for some, but Xephyris enjoyed having a place to call home, somewhere to keep him chained and grounded. Wandering aimlessly was really not his thing. He hadn't decided what he was going to do yet - would he join another pack? It seemed like a logical idea... but every time he chose a place to call home, it was ripped away from him all too soon. There were other packs that seemed to stay strong forever. Were they just that much stronger?

"Anyways, my name's Xephyris," he offered, tail flicking to wrap around his paws, "And what is the name of the fiery little flower girl before me?" He chuckled lowly. Oh, how lame he felt right now, but it didn't really matter. She was a pretty lady, and if she hadn't left his presence yet, perhaps she'd stick around a while, if anything just to distract him from his homelessness. And if she didn't want to stay, at least he hadn't known her long enough to miss her.
