He smiled a little at the endearing way she shyly looked away even though it meant that he couldn't see her lovely gaze any more. Even though she told him that he didn't have to follow through with his offer, he could tell from her tone and inflection that she didn't really mean it - or at least he didn't think so. He thought of himself as a pretty good judge of character and thought he was able to pick up on cues pretty well, but he'd been proven wrong before. "Oh, I really don't mind," he replied earnestly, giving her a warm smile. He almost commented on how he was usually lonely most nights, but he didn't want to come off as desperate so he kept the thought to himself. Without another denial or a turn to leave he made the assumption that she wouldn't be leaving right away so when she began to move through the Redbud Nook again he followed along, his tail wagging gently behind him. He didn't mind the quiet company as they walked together, but he wasn't bothered by the attempt at conversation either. He gave her a slightly surprised look when she said that she had been a part of Abaven at one point. Abaven as a general rule was pretty large and covered a large bit of land so he wasn't exactly surprised that they hadn't crossed paths - especially since his time there had been spotty at best. "What a small world!" he commented with a soft chuckle. "I joined with my father when I was still pretty young, but I've been in and out for the most part. Last year I accidentally broke my leg down near Auster and found my way to my mother's family by chance and stayed with them till I was able to make the trip back... That kept me away for almost a year I think. I just came back about a season or two ago." His gaze had drifted from her to the world around them as they slowly wandered through the trees, but once he finished his little blurb about his history with his pack, he brought his attention back to her. "What got you to move packs?" he asked with a genuine curiosity. He liked learning about others as a general rule, but she seemed particularly interesting for some reason. The subtle expressions and hints in her voice made him pay attention to pick up on them and there seemed to be something hidden under the surface that he couldn't quite make out. |
