Dwindling Hope

There was no apprehension in Arisha with the other woman, and rather that was her naivety and lack of experience- or just the sheer fact of relief in being in the company of another, she couldn't find it in herself to doubt Adelphie's good nature. The compliment that rolled of her tongue caused Arisha's smile to widen, her eyes sparkling with a joy she hadn't felt in so long, and her tail thumped just a bit harder on the puffy snow, causing a few gusts to fly up. "Your name is pretty too!" She was quick to comment back, happy to simply be making conversation. The woman went on to admire her for making it along so far on her own, especially in the winter, and Arisha frowned slightly. Had she really done something worth being called strong? She always felt and seemed so weak- but could it be that it was just the way she saw herself? At the mention of hunting, it brought her attention back to her painfully empty stomach, and Arisha's ears flattened slightly. "No... I've been scavenging though! Or, trying to." A defeated huff came from her lips, ever since winter came her 'scavenging' had often resulted in nothing, and if she did find something it was only a few bites worth and days old.
