planning a crash landing

It's not until he touches the girl that she realizes just how truly massive the stranger is. Her eyes went wide. She'd become unused to physical contact. Halo was in awe of this man, who'd been so fierce moments ago, and now was so gentle. As she took in more of the man, studied him more, there were so many strange things about him. He had fangs, and a mark that looked like scarring over his eye, though Halo didn't want to look too long-- that would be rude. Couldn't be rude, especially not after he'd saved her, especially not because he was a stranger. That, combined with the man's hulking size, left her thinking that he was perhaps the strangest looking wolf she'd ever met. The compliment leaves Halo standing a little straighter. A meek smile flickered across her lips. As the touch recedes, she doesn't drop her head, though she does drop eye contact. Halo still relaxed to a degree, looking up to the much larger man. At his question, the girl shook her head. Family. "They sent me to go out on my own, now that I'm grown. I just got here," she felt sheepish explaining, really. They wanted her to go, and she went. Being out here on her own had been her only option. "Safe... what's happening?" Halo was curious, and her gaze landed on the panther. She cocked her head to the side, looking carefully at the crystals where they grew on the predator. "What are those?" |
