Birds of a Feather
Azzurra

A light giggly laugh escaped the fawn-colored adolescent while she grinned back at Azzurra, beaming with a huge smile and bright blue eyes. "Yeah I have!" she remarked almost triumphantly, as if getting her first kiss was this huge accomplishment for her. It definitely made her feel more mature and like an adult, out here venturing on her own, getting to smooch a cute girl! The warmth she was feeling was strange, and while she didn't know what to do about it or what it was, she was liking the foreign sensation. Azzurra offered to take a walk together, and immediately Tira was on her paws. "Yeah, that sounds nice," she agreed. Tiny mottled paws padded down the rugged mountain path while she walked alongside Azzie, their sides and hips occasionally bumping and brushing against one another's whenever the path would narrow. Every time they touched, that fire in her belly seemed to flare up. Tira didn't want to mention it until she knew what it was, lest she risk messing things up with her new friend. What if it was something bad, or something she wasn't supposed to feel? How would she know what to do about it?
"I'm glad I stopped too. Even though I thought you were gonna try to hurt yourself." Satira gave Azzie an apologetic smile for her initial assumptions. "I haven't really gotten to speak to anyone much at all either. My brother doesn't really talk to anyone, and my mom's busy with her new adult friends. My dad..." Tira's words drifted off, floppy ears drooping slightly. "...he doesn't live with us." She briefly thought about her father back in the Armada. Did he miss her? Did he think about her? Or had he already forgotten about her and Asla, moved on to start a new family without them? Satira swallowed back her sadness and forced the glee back to the front while she refocused on Azzie with a wry smile. "You're super sweet to talk to as well. Plus you gave me my first kiss, so you're double sweet!" Azzie had been Tira's first kiss outside of her parents; this was a big moment in the young girl's life.
The two faes eventually arrived to a grassy plateau with hardy trees and a fantastic view of the fjord around them. While Azzie got situated resting beneath a tree, Tira wandered to the edge and peered over, her indomitable adventurous spirit wanting to see everything first. "Nah, it's not too bad. My family and I have been traveling for a couple seasons, so maybe I'm just kinda used to it though?" she said while she sauntered back over to lie down next to Azzie, leaving just a thin gap of space between them while they rested on the soft grasses. She gazed up at Azzie's pretty face with another smile, trying to place the feelings she got inside when she looked at her. They were totally unknown to her, but a part of her felt like she should instinctually recognize them. "So where are you from, Azzurra?" she asked, not recognizing the pack scent she detected on the other girl's coat.
"Satira"
