I will smother you just to feel your touch

Aureus' eyes were drawn once more to Jupiter's shoulders with the man's languid shrug. His stomach was starting to twist into knots as his body and brain failed to communicate. He had no idea what he wanted. His body wanted one thing, his mind wanted another but they could both agree that this strange was interesting enough to at least talk with. Surely there was no harm in talking.

The man moved closer and stated that he was lost. Aureus said nothing but he was listening. He was listening intently. The man went on to state that he was ready to turn in for the night and looking for a place to bed down. Aureus paused as if thinking, taking a deep breath as he tried to get his mind back in sync with the rest of himself. However, what was his mind vs his body was now rapidly becoming part of his mind versus another part of his mind and his body.

"Ah, that would be a tough one if you're looking for anywhere close. Nothing but crocodiles and giant lizards to the west. Ocean to the south and if you head north or east you'll hit a pack." Assuming they were still even there. Aureus grinned smoothly at the man. "If I'm being quite honest, this is the best spot to bed down in the area. The willow branches will offer a good amount of protection from the rain." Aureus reached out a paw and patted the ground next to him. "Rest for a spell. I wouldn't mind hearing about your travels. My name is Aureus by the way. I'd love to hear yours."
