Nap Time

The crafty stranger gave her no name after she offered her own, but Twig didn’t notice as he began his lesson. Her bright lavender eyes didn’t miss the glint of his teeth, he had to be someone important to have made such a piece. She wondered where it came from and how to replicate it for only a moment before she focused more heavily on his demonstration. She nodded slowly, mostly sure she had the idea. With care she stood back up to pick out a perfect knife shaped outcropping.

Her velvety tail swung leisurely at her striped hips as she turned away from the stranger to better decide on her own blade. She was excited to make something so useful, and his such a charming teacher. With caramel ears falling to her head at the thought she made her choice and turned back towards him. Twig felt a blush creep over her cheeks as she caught his eyes upon her. ”I’d like to work on this one, please.” She offered humbly as she pointed towards the shard with her delicate nose. ”What kind of leather do you use for the handle?” She asked curiously, something that would stand up to a bit of abuse. Especially if he was using those impressive teeth.
