"You put up a good fight! I'm impressed!" She had led him away from the battlefield and along the river, a layer of slush and somewhat hardened snow on the ground and the temperature chilly now that they were close to water. Her fur was pulsing with an excited glow as she spoke. "My name's Tel' Teukiira by the way, but you can call me Tel if you want! I live in a pack called Valhalla." She was still getting used to talking to others, but it seemed no matter what, her excitement at making a potential new friend always got her fired up and quite talkative. "What's your name? Where are you from? You look really cool by the way! I like your horns, and those scale things on your body! And also, you glow like me!" Okay okay, maybe she was talking a little too much now. Woops.
She hardly seemed to wait for any responses since they had left the battlefield, though she was also unaware that he didn't really talk. She excitedly led the way alongside the river until a slow stream that broke off from the main river caught her attention. Following it, they arrived at a smaller, shallow creek. There was ice hanging from the trees here, and it was quiet and away from any danger of slipping into the main river. Sheltered, too. Sort of. At least if it started to snow, they could take shelter if they needed to. She moved towards one of the trees, alien gaze looking up at the icicles that hung there. They looked like ornaments, crystalline and sparkling, even in the gloomy sunlight. It was then she realized that her sparring partner hadn't said a word the whole way, and she turned to look at him with curious eyes. "You're awfully quiet aren't you? It's okay! I'm shy sometimes, too." She sat then, gaze on the black and red boy as she waited for answers.
