Bleeding Hearts Shed No Tears

He wanted to die. To just sink into the ground and be swallowed up. He was so embarrassed he just wished lightning would strike him down now. Well, there was no going back. So when she said it was alright, he wasn't sure if he felt better or not. Nah, probably not. He probably should have guessed from the way her gaze wasn't entirely focused, but the only partially blind wolf he had been around was Vereux, but he was pretty sure the guy was missing an entire eyeball. Now that was obvious. But her? She had two pretty eyes sitting right in her skull. He was so glad for the distraction when she introduced herself, changing the subject. "It's nice to meet you Armai. Sorry about...um..." He cleared his throat, ears flicking as he tried to push away the prior moment. "I've never met someone who couldn't see before," He blurted out. And though Kimahri was watching Nox with interest, he rolled his eyes and shook his head the moment he heard Dragon say that. "You really are an idiot." He growled as he got up and walked away, head shaking.

Dragon sighed. He must really sound like the dumbest wolf alive today. Oh well, you live and you learn, right? "Again, I'm sorry. The only blind wolf I knew was my mother's late mate, but he was partially blind and his eye wasn't even there...ah..." He cleared his throat again, shutting up before he potentially said anything else stupid. What was wrong with him today? He couldn't quite place it, though if there was a word to describe what he was feeling now was...nervous, perhaps? He was more grateful for her response to his offer of guiding her around, though what she said completely threw him off and excited him. She was willing to teach them!? Wow, he had really struck out today! Both in good and bad ways. His embarrassment seemed to dissolve as he straightened up, tail thumping lightly on the ground. "Really? You'd do that? That would be great! You have no idea how much you'd be helping us! My brother Arke aspires to be a healer, and with no one else really knowing about medicine, it's been kind of hard for him to learn. And without a healer, we'd be pretty screwed if something happened."
