Sun Kissed
Gods above he felt so awkward...he knew it was because he had become antisocial since Faite had vanished, and even more so when he started feeling estranged from his own damn kids. He watched her quietly as he studied her, ears tilting forward slightly as she told him that she was in the healer position. "Well...Lirim could always use healers. My daughter Kairi tried to learn it but there wasn't anyone around to teach her" In fact, he knew there were a couple she-wolfs in the pack that were supposed to be healers...but he hadn't seen Hailey in ages and Stardust often seemed to be scarce as well. So in a way, he was kind of glad that Baelfire was here to take on the role. He wasn't sure how to continue conversation anymore, much less with someone new. So he was glad when she asked him about Lirim.
Icy blue gaze settled on her, amused by her rapid blinking. If he didn't know any better, she seemed impatient to want to know more about the pack. He felt a slight smile tug at his lips, so he settled his rump on the ground and took a deep breath. "Well, it's usually pretty quiet. We're not really bothered by outsiders, and within pack lands it's...well...quiet." He cleared his throat in slight embarrassment. He knew he had repeated himself, but in all honesty, Lirim was pretty quiet. He didn't hold training because he was the only fighter in the pack, and since he was pretty much banned from teaching the pups, then he didn't really have anything to do. And it seemed nobody else did anything either. "I'm the only fighter in Lirim, so if you ever want any training in that field or help with anything else, feel free to ask." His gaze drifted upward towards the leaves of the tree they sat under, wondering what else he should say. So far, he was pretty sure he was failing in providing her an adequate answer. And that's when he knew for sure that he was really out of touch with the pack now that he thought about it. "I'm...sorry...it's been a while since I've really had a conversation with anyone that isn't my daughter.." He sighed and shot her an apologetic look, wondering if he'd be able to fix this somehow. |
