Where? Diagonally!

Asvor's expression widened at the returned attention, noting how easily her focus shifted from the game to her - and though how quickly she abandoned it pleased her, she knew deep down that Valdis was about the only thing that could capture her attention so easily. Even since the day they'd met, when they were young, she remembered being strangely fond of her newest acquaintance, letting her guard down enough to weather out a storm with her... and trust was a rare thing for the Finnvi woman to give so easily. She returned the affection, pressing hard into Valdis's touch, always glad to be reunited no matter how little time had passed between them. For so long she'd only seen her every few seasons, so being around her almost constantly was a change she wasn't taking at all for granted, and she had a feeling she never would. "Jörmungandr," Asvor introduced her new companion, grinning wickedly as she watched Jynette approach her. Briefly she unfurled from around her leg, tongue flicking out as she tentatively tasted the fox's scent. "She's not much of a talker. Named her after my uncle's snake, who looked.. quite a bit like her," she explained as she twisted to eye Valdis again, eyes shining brightly. The resemblance was unnerving, but Asvor had been young when she'd seen Kapra and his snake last and her memory likely hazy. A movement too sudden for her taste from Jynette made her snake recoil, ducking her head beneath the safety of Asvor's leg. The wolf's attention was brought back to Valdis, listening to her explain the game they'd been playing. "A walk sounds good," she concluded after a thought, deciding the game could be left best as something for Valdis and Jynette to bond over. Asvor couldn't help but feel a similar spark of possessiveness ignite within her at their closeness, and perhaps that was why she'd wanted a small friend of her own, but the feeling didn't feel like the kind of emotion that might make her go unhinged... it felt healthy, forcing her to remember just how deeply she cared for Valdis, and made her wonder if she'd done a good job at showing it. "There's something I wanted to talk to you about soon, anyway." |
