A Dip In The Moonlight

For a brief, fleeting moment, Kai wondered if he ought to even remain in Boreas after all. What was his family like, back in the tribe his father had been brought up in? Occasionally, in moments like this, he found himself longing for like-minded wolves, ones who believed in the gods and goddesses that his father had taught him of, that believed in the circle of life and death and believed that each and every strand of grass had as much life as any wolf ever could. But.. the thought was a transient one, and his slightly wilted expression brightened almost immediately as she agreed with him. Perhaps he would never find completely similar wolves, but he supposed the differences were just as interesting - and briefly his mind wandered to Asgeira and Jouko, wondering if he'd ever have the pleasure of running in those two again. He supposed the hope for true kinship was something that often kept him going, even when he was dreadfully bored and when he found loneliness trying to rear its ugly head. Thankfully, those moments were far and few between.

His attention snapped back to the present, focusing on the beauty lying at the edge of the falls. In a weird way, her coat reminded him of nighttime in itself, black and painted with just enough color to catch the eye. A hint of amusement seemed to touch her features, and he mirrored it, drawing a bit closer to her with a few lazy steps. "I suppose I've been called worse things," Kai commented, unsure if he agreed with that particular description of himself. But her question gave him pause, and he found his head tilting slightly, dwelling on it for a moment before daring to speak. "Why, I had a feeling a woman as pretty as you might be waiting for me, Aspen!" Kai teased, repeating her name so he might have half a chance of remembering it. Deciding that she seemed was far too keen to buy in to his flattery, Kai decided he might as well give her a proper answer. Or at least a semblance of one. "Truthfully, I was feeling a bit.. uneasy tonight, I guess? Reflecting on the beauty of the world always seems to help me find peace." Kai shrugged, not one who was used to sharing such thoughts with the world - not because he was afraid to, or didn't want to, but most simply didn't seem to think about things quite how he did. He wondered if Aspen could relate.
