A low voice pulled the small woman's attention from her task. Seeing the boy, Io flashed him a winning smile. "Hello, Dunkan." They'd shared the same pack for quite some time. They'd crossed paths a few times since it was inevitable, but they'd never really spoken. She had cleaned up his wounds after the raid as well. She didn't know much about the young man, however. He offered assistance and she nodded. It might very well help to have another set of paws. Enki was off spending time with his woman and cubs, so she was all alone in her machinations. Io gestured for Dunkan to take a seat across from her, the woman's odd digits moving in a sweeping motion. "Please," she said sweetly before beginning to show him what she was working on. Io pointed to the pile of wood and grasses that she'd collected. Taking up the branches, she began layering the ends so that they crossed in an X shape at the corners. Using the twine that she had created, Iolaire tied the branches together. "I'm working to build a sleeping frame to keep bed furs off of the ground." It was a little difficult to hold all of the crossed branches in place by herself, so she motioned for Dunkan to hold one set of intersecting branches while she tied them off. "This is just the first attempt. If we make something worthwhile, I'll make you one as well to say thanks. What do you think?" Again she smiled. The boy was always so dry and formal. She hoped that she could bring him out of his shell a bit. They weren't in battle now and there was nothing expected of him here. He was still young. He should take advantage of that. "Speech" |
Io has a dwarf caribou companion and a snow leopard companion. Assume they aren't with her unless stated otherwise.
