A Little Something Extra... as a treat

The woman had an explanation for her beast of burden ready at hand, which alleviated a good portion of Aggie's curiosity. What a marvelous this that must be, she mused, quietly considering all the possibilities. Of course it did create twice as many questions as it answered. Where had she found Ila? Aggie knew caribou to be large and cumbersome, so was she of a different species or just unusually small? Where had she come by that cart? If she made it how, and if she did not, who did? Each of these and more sat perched on the tip of Aggie's tongue, but she was polite enough to show restraint. Perhaps if this woman did not send her on her way for disturbing what was clearly a job of some sort, she might be able to slip in a few over time. Aggie was about to introduce herself, both to the woman and to Ila when the shewolf gestured off to the side. Aggie followed her gaze and was shocked, but at this point not necessarily surprised, to see a large snow cat snoring and by all appearances dead to the world. She couldn't help but chuff out a quiet laugh. "Spirits! Let me guess, there's also an eagle up in that tree as well, and six field mice hidden in your scruff? I don't think anything could surprise me at this point." Aggie grinned, shaking her head at the wonder of it. "And to think, my only companion is a surly panda. I must have been very poorly behaved in a past life." Said surly panda reared up and cuffed one of her ears, none too gently either. "Spirits only know what I must have gotten up to, to be saddled with the most ill-mannered, ungrateful wolf this side of the ocean." Ylva sulked, clambering down from Aggie's shoulders before scrambling up the nearest tree. She knew Aggie wouldn't leave her, at least not for long, and often enjoyed making a game out of waiting for Aggie to appeal to her more stubborn sensibilities. Aggie just sighed, and shook out her fur before turning back to Iolaire. "It's good to meet you Iolaire, Armada Ambassador and woman of many talents." She dipped her head, in part out of due deference to her position, and only a little bit to be cheeky. "My name is Aggie, or Asgeira if I'm in trouble. My traveling companion is Ylva. Once-tutor, now she patches me up when I get in over my head and helps with projects here and there." Aggie might have once expanded on that, but given the skill sets of the wolves she'd recently been encountering, none of her past exploits seemed terribly worthy of note. Ylva took it upon herself to chime in and answer the rest of Iolaire's question. "Asgeira decided that the onset of winter was the prime time to hunt for mushrooms, instead of wandering south where we might actually find something of use." This was also accompanied by a scoff. Aggie turned back to the other shewolf with a grin and a shrug. It had been worth a shot, hadn't it? "Talk" "Listen" Think |
