A Great, Wide World of Wonder

Listening as she talked about herbal uses and different things that were good for certain stuff, the boy found himself quite intrigued by the whole topic. He guessed it would be real useful to know those sort of things. If you knew the basics than you didn't have to panic and look for someone else hoping they'd take pity on you if you were hurt. Yeah, knowing these things was a really good idea. "That's cool! You sure know a lot of stuff. It's pretty awesome, makes em think I ought to learn some of these kinds of things. Hmm, I wonder how the first wolf to figure out each herb's use went about learning that stuff... Seems like it'd take a good deal of trial and error... And the error part doesn't sound fun." He grimaced at the idea of someone testing out various herbs in different amounts in an attempt to see if any of them worked on different ailments and how the worked best. The off-putting part was of course the thought of being the one they were tested on. No thank you. He listened to her describe the necklace and made a mental note to investigate these kinds of things. He wanted to see wolves who had these kinds of things! There were probably wolves with all kinds of cool things like necklaces and stuff out there. His tail thumped the ground softly as she introduced her companion. Speaking of... That reminded him of something. "Well, it's good to meet you, Aelloshir." Amos could understand not being talkative. His mom wasn't exactly chatty, after all. Neither was Torryn. It was Rogdar that couldn't shut his mouth. Gah, new topic, new topic! "You know, my da' gave me n' my brothers companions when we turned a year. A gift before we went off, I guess." He'd not thought of his companion for a while. He didn't enjoy the idea of being restrictive, and the creature was nocturnal so he felt it'd be rude to go pestering a sleeping bat. Her laugh was nice. Airy and sweet, surely better than his. Hell, he'd have been perfectly content to keep listening to her ramble if she was so inclined. There were worse ways to spend his days, after all. "You're lucky, then. A good teacher isn't always easy to come by. If you've got more than one I'd say you'll be winnin' fights left and right in no time if you're so inclined." Of course, he also figured that beneath the gentle, amiable exterior was a girl who could kick ass and take names. He wasn't sure why, he just got that feeling from her. It was always the ones you least suspected. Walk. "Speak!" "Think." |
