Feels like home

"Aslatiel Fatalis"

The feel of a body beside him brought a chirping trill from the spotted cat. He opened one pale green eye and spied the little scaled creature. He'd never seen such a thing in his two years of life. Lifting his head slightly, he inspected the little beast a bit more. It was kind of cute. Asla had told him that her friend was bringing another little friend, so he had been prepared. Satisfied with his inspection, the cat wrapped his thick, warm tail around the little pangolin and placed his head back down on his paws. He was worn out after dragging the bison all that way.

Aslatiel picked at her meat, shifting her gaze to rest on Naiche as he gently chastised her for going out to hunt. "Yeah, well... I have a hard time sitting still. It feels lazy and I don't like it." It was... sweet. He was showing concern for her well being. Yes, they bickered and picked at one another, but to see that he genuinely cared was something different than what she was used to. Asla wasn't complaining.

In the few days since they'd been spending time together, she'd managed to push away most of the sadness caused by the distance between Indigo and herself. Naiche's words though brought it all back and suddenly she felt guilty for forgetting that pain. Asla swallowed hard and her brows furrowed. "Maybe..." was all that she could manage. How could she have forgotten that Indigo was a world away? With a frown, she pushed her meat away, appetite gone. Releasing a pent up sigh, Asla placed her leftovers near the rest of the meat pile them left the main chamber and curled up in the dark bed chamber on the pile of furs. Damn Naiche for opening his mouth... He hadn't meant to upset her, but she couldn't help it.
