who runs the world

Avantika · 12-20-2020, 11:00 AM

As Avantika was standing, unaware of the borders, she heard another pup walking towards her. She couldn't grab even a bit of silence here, it seemed. But as she looked upon the girl, she realized there was no Hallows about her. She must not be one of them. Maybe she was a lone pup just like the foundling had been.

Avantika assumed her usual submissive posture. Head down, eyes glued to the newcomer's shape. She didn't look threatening. She didn't look particularly terrified either, because she wasn't. She was annoyed at the girl's interloping into her private time. She wasn't of Hallows though, so the ocean-eyed foundling would be respectful but not afraid. She had the protection of the pack at her back and the girl presumably had hers. She almost smiled. Knowing what best to do was so helpful.

She wondered briefly if she should call for Resin to greet the pup, but a little conversation first couldn't hurt. She also didn't quite want to talk, though. Her decision was made for her though, as the girl spoke.

Avantika didn't know how to answer her question. Nothing was wrong with her physically, and she had no clue how to describe her worries when sometimes she couldn't even understand them herself. But she couldn't just not answer. She pondered the trouble for a moment. She could always lie, but she hadn't the slightest idea how to be believable. "I... not there long." She told the truth as well as she could. "Not know them much." She felt the familiar prickle of shame at her jarbled attempts at sentences.

She wasn't asking for information, but if this girl knew anything about the pack Avantika was visiting, she certainly wouldn't ignore her.
