Gimme what I want

Her mood shifted alarmingly quickly, annoyance fading into interest and a certain kind of feigned patience as she let her gaze shift to the herbs at his paws. He thanked her, eliciting a slow smile from her, his thought only half-vocalized before both of their attentions shifted elsewhere. Either Aramis was a good liar, or this wolf accidentally intruding on their discussion was, in fact, a stranger to him as well. Her posture stiffened, her self-preservation going far too deep to pretend she wasn't alarmed at the arrival of another so suddenly. Unoffended at his own wariness, she returned the hesitation as she spun around to better face the girl, taking a wide step back as well. Aramis invited her out, promising that it was safe, and she was silent and still as she kept her eyes peeled on the female as she scooted out from beneath the metal object. The nervousness that emanated over Fawn was palpable even from this distance, and a slow smile crept onto her features, an attempt to soothe the girl's discomfort. "He's right," she assured her, nodding her head slowly. "You're safe here." Which was true.. well, mostly, though it only mattered that the girl thought that. Her expression shifted into something more studious as she turned back to Aramis, eyeing the plant he'd brought again from an even greater distance now. "He was just asking me about this plant he'd found," she started, gaze drifting from Aramis to Fawn and then back again, despite the fact that he hadn't asked about it at all yet - she'd seen the curiosity in his gaze, mingled with some wariness. "That plant's known as boneset," Asvor lied easily, gesturing lightly toward it. If they knew anything about boneset, they'd either think she was lying or simply confused... but her gaze was unwavering, her brows furrowed. "It's a good supplement for your immune system. Helps you from getting colds," she continued on. "The leaves are bitter, but the effects are worth the unpleasant taste." |
