we are the storm and the wicked inside

As predicted he was silent for a short time after she aired her question, but she was in no rush that day and so simply lay there in silence. When he eventually spoke up her brows raised high on her forehead, mouth opening just enough that her overall expression could be mistaken for surprise. Sanngriðr liked someone? Her lips threatened to twitch up in a smile, her mind already supplying her with a myriad of ways she could tease her cousin about her brush. That was so unlike Sanngriðr, but it was also highly amusing. This day was just getting better and better.
Iðunn met his gaze when he looked at her, doing her best to school her expression into one of mild neutrality and curiosity, even as a hint of amusement danced across her features. "Barghest?" He was the only newcomer she was aware of that fit the description of 'weird looking', and in fact he was the only newcomer she was aware of at all. Were there even others she had yet to meet? Surely not, or she would've known by now.
He continued on then, musing aloud about putting himself out there. As a would-be alpha Víðarr would need to go out and talk with others, loners and pack wolves alike, to show that he was diplomatic enough to lead a pack. She believed in his ability, as did the others in their little group, or hopefully they did, but those not aware of them didn't, and they were the wolves he would need to truly prove himself to. But that also meant speaking in the common tongue, as she had only met one other wolf that even spoke their native language, and Víðarr wasn't the best at that. He was certainly passable, but perhaps there was room for improvement.
"If you would like, I can help you practice speaking in the common tongue better?" There was nothing in her tone that would suggest she was teasing or making fun of him, and it was a genuine question. If he wanted practice she would be willing to help, even if she much preferred the way their language sounded. "I could use the practice myself," she quickly added. Her pronunciation could use some work, particularly with certain vowels and sounds, and perhaps if they practiced together it would be an easier task.
