Illuminate

He was used to women being a higher rank then him, it was his job to tend to their needs to a certain extent. He was used to the women of Glaciem often refusing his offers to help for the more minor things, though if they ended up refusing his help for things that he knew needed tending then he could always go over their head and call the Overseer or maybe even Isa if it was important. But here it wasn?t life threatening and there was no going over her head.

Growing up he had loved heading east and hanging out at the coast, some times with his father, sometimes with his brother but most of the time he had gone alone. Moving to Glaciem had been his first real time in the north. And so far he never wanted to leave, it was stunning up here and he preferred the climate.

But nothing he had come across in these lands were anything near as stunning as she was. Time froze and his gaze flitted over her visage and then focused on her eyes. Everything about her was beautiful, the color of the fur on her face was stunning and it outlined her deep maroon eyes perfectly. In then he could see many different flecks of colors that most would probably pass by unless they were looking as closely as he. She pulled away entirely too quickly, breaking the moment and leaving him a little dizzy.

She nodded and then verbally agreed that she would like to head to shore and he smiled softly, not moving as she brushed past him. The contact was electrical and as her lithe frame came close enough that their pelts brushed he felt a shiver trail down his spine. He couldn?t tell if she was teasing him or if she was simply keeping close so if she once again began to fall he could catch her. He would catch her, he could guarantee that much now?

He kept close as she made her way back towards the shore, ready to steady her if she showed any signs of slipping, his own large paws providing more then enough surface to allow him good traction. He continued to follow, unsure yet if she would call an end to their encounter here or if she would want to continue talking. But luckily she plopped her rump down and allowed her forelegs to walk forward so she was lying easily on the snow. He sat near her but allowed her her personal space.

"I'm not very water savvy, liquid or frozen it seems." She said easily and he chuckled in response. ?Is there no water or winter where you grew up?? he asked conversationally, head tipped though as he was honestly curious. ?I can assume your not from around here? So what brings you to the north?? Ears flitted forward and he decided to finally lay down, forepaws inching forward so that their bodies formed a bit of a V with their forepaws a few inches from each other. She was interesting and he defiantly wanted to learn more about her. He hadn?t explored much other then Tortuga, Glaciem and a bit of the east coast.

Speech!
