Aggie spent a good long while scouting the banks. She found plenty of gravel beds, more reeds than she felt was strictly necessary, plenty of debris piles from previous floods that she had to either scramble over or divert around. It was beginning to look like she had picked a terrible spot to begin searching for clay. At long last the substrate seemed to be changing, becoming more fine, then rocky and smooth. Perfect! There had to be something around he- She stopped dead in her tracks.

There before her was a beautiful expanse. Expanse being just a few feet along the edge of the water, but it was undoubtedly a bed of slick pale yellow clay. Except it was marred entirely by the presence of another wolf. Aggie sighed. She was by no means an unfriendly sort, and if she hadn't been so worried about failing her first attempt at sculpting in front of another wolf she might even have been elated. She watched as the smaller female began to gather some of the clay for herself, so surely this stranger knew what she was doing. But still.

Aggie pressed on. She had worked too hard to find this place to go around and search for another. She'd just have to suck up her pride and deal. She was close enough by then to realize that this wolf was old, too. Like old, old. Like, do you need help finding your way back home, do you have any grandchildren to make sure you don't wander off old. The impression was further solidified the longer Aggie watched because, and while she didn't want to outright assume, the way the stranger searched around with her paws and snout... Was she blind? Spirits.

Well. At least it seemed less likely that Aggie would be judged for shoddy craftsmanship.

"'Scuze me," she called out, announcing herself at long last. "I don't mean to intrude. I was hoping to gather some clay here, but if you've laid claim to it I'll move along." It was more of a 'respect for your elders thing' than a 'I could tumble you into the water if I felt that strongly about it but I don't' thing. Not to mention if a blind wolf was making pottery how hard could it really be for Aggie to learn? Maybe this shewolf would be a good teacher, so long as she didn't read minds or anything. That would be... uh, awkward.
