The instant that Naiche answered and invited her inside, Asla slipped her body into the den. Her eyes adjusted to the altered lighting and she saw him nestled in a pile of furs with one large polar bear fur draped over him. The yellow wolf gave her a choice of furs, but that wasn't what she wanted. Moving forward, Asla pushed the polar bear fur aside and slid her slender body along the length of Naiche's. They would share the same fur whether he liked it or not. Physical contact was what she needed to stay afloat. Once under the fur, she tugged it in place with her teeth, making sure that Naiche was still covered. She then sighed and rested her head between her paws. "How are you feeling?" Rather than speak about herself, she would ask about him first. It had been some time since he'd discovered that his friend had been killed. Asla had gone off with The Hallows shortly after and had only just returned. The fact that he was here, curled up in bed rather than out being the busy body that he was just proved to her that something wasn't right. Shifting her head slightly, she looked upon him with one swirling purple eye. Once they discussed him and how he was doing, maybe she'd tell him about her own pains. Or maybe she'd just keep them to herself and wallow for a while. Afterall, Azure was the only wolf that knew just how she felt about Indigo. Her experiences with the world told her just how others would react to their love for one another. If Naiche looked down on her for feeling that she couldn't control... Well... it would end their friendship. That wasn't something that she was ready for. And so, if he asked, she would simply have to tell him that she was sad because her brother was so far away. Family family family and all that. She couldn't tell him that her soul was wrenched in two, drawn and quartered and thrown to the four corners. She couldn't tell him that, without Indigo beside her, she was incapable of feeling whole. She couldn't tell him that Indigo was the only wolf that she would ever love. The only wolf that she would ever want to spend her life with. And so she looked at Naiche expectantly. Waiting for him to share news of himself so she didn't have to think about her own woes.
