Meet and Greet

A little voice called out, asking who she was an Io pressed into the ground with one white toed paw, sitting up just enough to peer through the grasses. It was a boy. A tiny boy. With a snort of amusement, Io dropped back into the shade. "You're a new one. You wouldn't know anyway," she responded. Whose new one, she didn't know. Too new to be one of Sirius', she thought.

Sirius arrived moments later. His words brought a grin to her thin face and she shrugged. "Just being polite. Plus I needed a bit of shade after such a long walk." She motioned to the shade beneath one of the sparse trees at the edge of Armada lands. Her coat was just as obsidian as the boys and she knew that he was feeling the heat as well.

Rolling to her paws, Io slid her satchel back over her neck before looking up to her giant sibling. "You wanted a visit. I'm visiting." Though the rest of her was still worryingly thin, the fae's green and gold eyes were as vibrant as ever. They blinked as she gave him a 'now what' stare. He'd wanted her to meet someone. Or someone's.
