Unexpected Encounter [Gaios]

*Gaios* · 09-23-2018, 05:35 PM

The woman's response was immediate... and concerning, to say the least. Her eyes went wide and she did not speak for a long moment. Gaios felt his own heart constrict, uncertainty rising up to overtake him. Had... Had they met in the past? He couldn't recall. Gaios had met plenty of dark-coated females with pale eyes, she certainly wasn't the first. He tried to stitch together a series of memories into something that fit, but his half-concocted certainties only made him more and more unsure. She stuttered, and then "What do you want with me?" Gaios wilted.

Even when he thought he was anonymous, the fear and hatred seemed to follow him. But, perhaps this fae was just flighty by nature? He could tell she had obviously been gravely wounded in the past if nothing else. Gaios' ears pinned backwards, flat against his head, and he slunk down into a laying position for sitting was obviously for too forward for the situation. "I- Er.. Nothing! I'm sorry, I didnt-" He let out a hard breath. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to startle you. I only wanted to help, but I can go?"

Gaios began to push himself backwards, coming upright again only after he had put a few more feet of space between them. Back on four legs he still continued his slow retreat, keeping his eyes on the dark female to make sure she wouldn't launch herself at his backside. Why could he not have merely one peaceful interaction? Was his entire life meant to be cursed by the weight of his name? Gaios still held onto the thin thread of hope that perhaps this shewolf was merely battered by other forces of the world, dark and dismal as that may be. Anything to absolve him of that borrowed guilt. "Look, I'll leave you be if you'd prefer." He closed his mouth, rewetting his tongue which had dried out in the face of his anxiety and misery. "But I really did just want a bit of conversation. My name is Gaios, will you at least tell me yours? I promise I'm not here to harm you."

Amon would be furious if he knew how sincerely his son meant that.
