Don't be afraid to catch feels

Ivory teeth saw daylight again as he elicited a small smile from her. ”I can understand that. I somehow ended up in the north and saw snow for the first time not long ago.” Shivering at the memory, her thin fur standing on end until she relaxed, Echo declared, ”Won’t be going back there anytime soon.” Flicking one of her cropped ears, the woman tried to bury the memory of snow and all the unpleasantness that came with it. Nope, never again.
Leaning forward, her weight shifting to her front legs so she could stretch each hind leg slowly while grinning at her new fiery companion Echo drawled, ”Well, you can’t hang out near a desert without me showing up, I’m afraid. It’s just like where I grew up.” She didn’t feel much need to elaborate. Telling her story wasn;t something she was all that opposed to doing, but she also really preferred to keep to lighter conversation if she could. At least until she knew more about who she was talking to. He didn’t have anything interesting on him from what she could tell when she first assessed him, so that meant all there was left to do was talk. Why not, right? Not like she had a lot better to do with her free time.
Striding into the water and enjoying the sensation of it cooling her now thoroughly warmed skin, Echo gave him a few wags of her bushy tail. ”Nice to meet’chya too. Name’s Echo.” Reaching the end of the water she could walk through as the pool deepened, the woman ceased her movements and enjoyed feeling the water lapping over her back gently. It was delightful, cooling, but not freezing like stupid snow and ice. Glancing sidelong, she asked, ”What brings you here, other than taking a break from the desert’s heat? Goin’ somewhere? Looking for something?” Her tone stayed playful, teasing even. Hopefully he was up to something interesting. If not, she’d have to ask more questions or make her own entertainment. In fact, she already had some ideas.
