Iolaire listened with rapt attention as Sirius spoke of his past. He spoke of what had happened to him. It was unfortunate that it had happened, but she knew that it wouldn't break him. She knew. She wouldn't let it. Already a plan was forming in her mind. Steps that they could take. Healing wasn't all about plants and tonics. She would do what she could for him until he was better or she was dead. Sirius placed his weighty head upon her tiny paw and Iolaire was both shocked and pleased by the action. In a comforting, almost sisterly way, she leaned her small frame into him and placed her tiny skull atop his own. It was such a natural feeling that she almost wrinkled her nose and scoffed, but she held it back. He told her of his attack upon Zee and Iolaire pressed her form hard again him in a sort of embrace. It pained him that he had injured the woman that he loved and she understood. Io's voice was soft when she spoke since she was practically wrapped around his head. We'll figure it out. Okay, Big Guy? I'll do everything within my power to get you through this. Promise. Again, that strange, nostalgic pang struck her in the chest. The woman pulled her ears back, tucking them against her skull. It was like she missed this. Whatever this was. There was no sexual attraction in the slightest. The feelings that she had for the giant man were purely... familial? Was that what it was? She had the urge to tell him of her own past, but shut the urge down. This moment was about him and the pain that he was feeling. There would be time later to share if she felt like it. Speech |
Io has a dwarf caribou companion and a snow leopard companion. Assume they aren't with her unless stated otherwise.
