In hindsight, scaring the shit out of his new travel companion might have been a bad idea. He dared not take his eyes off the strange non-leaf and its weird reflective surface, though the image of Jynn fluffed up in a panic would likely have stirred him to a fit of giggles. "What?! Are you ok?" she asked warily, joining him in creeping up on the strange litter on the floor. He hesitated in his response, for some reason. Was he okay? He lifted his paw to see if the pad was being eaten away by mysterious acid, or had been cut by something on the non-leaf. Nope, his paw was okay, and he had only strained his joints a bit with the awkward landing. He bobbed his head mutely. "Is it alive?" she asked next, drawing up alongside him to scrutinize the odd non-leaf. "Uhhh.." he began, but the stirring from his breath in close proximity sent the odd litter aflutter on the ground, though it didn't move away from them. He stilled, hackles rising and tail nub twitching anxiously. He huffed a short breath out, and it rustled again without skittering away. "I think it's a weird leaf. It looks like metal, but it isn't." he whispered, glancing over at Jynn. She was a warrior, maybe she knew something about crinkly metal leaves that he didn't. Perhaps it was a piece of some old human armour that he was unfamiliar with. |
