As she had expected, the little violet and black wolf practically exploded in joy when she agreed to stay with them. It was impossible to not smile around him, especially when he was squeezing her forelegs and nudging his head into her shoulder. He was just so sweet and kind, she probably should have been annoyed by him, but she couldn't feel any sort of negativity toward him. Segin promised she wouldn't regret her choice to stay with them, and Emersyn gave a soft laugh and replied with, "I'm going to hold you to that, Segin. You'll be personally responsible for making sure I'm happy then." She was teasing him of course, and she made it known by lifting a paw and giving him a playful nudge to the side to try and tickle him. Play wasn't something Em had in a long, long time, getting to just relax and unwind and be silly felt... liberating.
Segin immediately launched into an answer to her question, detailing his life in short snippets to her, starting with how his family had left him She frowned a little as she considered that. They just... left him?! How did an entire family just leave one of theirs behind? Ah, but wasn't that more or less what her family had done to her and her siblings in a sense? Given her away and never looked back? She nodded her head slowly when Segin mentioned Indigo saving him from winding up subjecting himself to someone worse. Segin was such a sweet guy, submissive and dainty. She could see why that would be a concern for him, especially as a male who enjoyed the company of other men as opposed to women.
While Segin told his story, Em began to subconsciously bring her tail around to curl around Segin, her head tilting to rest her cheek against his forehead in a protective fashion. She was guarding him, shielding him with her body on instinct. All she had ever known was fighting and killing, getting to use her skills to protect and defend felt like a breath of fresh air to the cold-blooded slaughter she had lived. "Well, I'm glad Indigo found you when he did," she said with a gentle sigh. "I don't think anyone else would have been as tenacious as you to get me to stay. Well done, Segin, you did the impossible." She snickered to herself and just let her gaze stare off into space while she took in and enjoyed the comfort the smaller brute offered her.
