Walk | "Talk" | Think

Rune only made a thoughtful, "Hm," in acknowledgement of Surreal's statement regarding the ocean, though knowing that her territory harbored a shoreline of its own did pique his curiosity. Where was this? He had never really given thought to what the other pack territories would look like, even when he had still been considering running off to visit them for Morphine. He had always supposed that he would find out when he visited them and not a moment before. But the company that he kept tended to be a sheltered group, just those who lived inside his home lands and only a single one beyond. Perhaps it was the lack of new faces that made him so content and comfortable with all that he knew and saw.

Here was a chance to change that. The grey youth continued to watch the other as she introduced herself and reclined onto her haunches in the sands where she had been standing, close enough for their casual conversation not to be strained but no closer to ensure that their comfort was intact. Any sense of wariness he had felt when she had walked up was quickly slipping away, however. If she had had any ill intents, he was sure he would have noticed by now, and so with a more relaxed air he let his eyes wander back to the waters away from them, letting their quiet splashes as the waves repeatedly washed up along the shore temporarily fill his hearing.

An ear twitched as another question was posed, and it was only as he considered his answer that he realized again and even more strongly just how small his world truly was. "Mainly here in the east," he stated, not willing to divulge completely that his travels further than that had been few and far between. Did many his age explore very far? With a curious, questioning sidelong glance at Surreal, he tried to keep the obvious interest more or less clear from his voice. "How far are you from home?" It was an innocent enough question, though in the back of his mind he knew it was just as likely that she would withhold the information for comfort's sake. No sense giving away every detail to the male she had only just met.
