Do you believe in Ice or Fire

Iho offered no resistance when Kitsune leaned more readily into him, not that he had the strength to do so even if he wanted to. He was just thankful to still be among the living, regardless of his circumstances. Besides, all things considered, he could have been in a worse spot. What if he'd washed up somewhere remote and isolated without someone to help him? What if he hadn't washed up on a shore at all and instead simply sank to the bottom of the abyssal ocean? He decided to count this among his blessings, this chance encounter with the little fire-kissed puppy being a defining moment in his life. For all his days, Iho would certainly never forget the generosity or consideration Kit had shown him.
Kitsune thanked him for his compliment, relating to him the lessons her mother tried to instill in her. It seemed that the empire her parents ruled was a very traditional and conservative type, full of rules and customs and decorum to be observed. It was a stark contrast to the life he was used to leading and it concerned him what would happen if either of the girl's parents came looking for her. Not just for himself, but also for Kitsune. He didn't want her getting in trouble for helping him and trying to do the right thing. His concerns were further founded when she said she wasn't supposed to leave the pack lands, whispering like she were sharing some confidential information with him. Iho snickered and flashed her a roguish grin. "I won't tell anyone if you won't," he whispered back, the playful puppyish side of him still strong as ever.
His little savior requested he stay where he was, offering the promise of food and supplies if he stayed put. Casting a wry smirk to her, Iho stretched out his bandaged leg, wincing a little as the strain pulled at his ragged wound. "No worries there. I don't think moving is gonna be something I can do very well for a bit." All the same, he sat up enough to cross a paw over his chest where his heart lay. "I promise to stay here, uh... am I supposed to call you Princess?"
