She's Like Heroin

He mirrored her smile, a bit relieved to know that the stranger was friendly. Her tone was warm, which was pleasing to hear after being alone for so long. Honestly even a bitter response might've excited him, Zeth didn't realize how lonely he was beginning to feel. His ears perked forward at the sudden question, more or less expecting to exchange names before inquiring why the sand had a dark pigment. His gaze dropped to the ground, as if he didn't even realize the color of the sand was nothing normal.
"Uh," he said, caught slightly off guard, "I have no idea." He looked back up at her and huffed a small laugh, finding their first encounter a bit amusing, "I've never seen sand like this before." Another thing he hasn't seen before was heterochromia, which he could see now that the female was looking at him. One blue eye, one yellow. He didn't think a pair of eyes could interest him so much.
"Why is the sky blue?" he asked back, the corner of his lips curling up into a small, playful smile. He was being a bit of a smart ass, teasing her slightly about asking such a random question. "But more importantly," he added, sitting down in the sand and curling his tail around his feet, "what is your name?"
