this is for the second chance

Teal eyes watched the male before her with a sort of eager interest mixed with caution as he turned around and reached into the bag that he carried. Slowly the girl got up from her previously sitting position as she curiously paid close attention as he placed whatever it was he grabbed onto the ground. Ears pointed forward…if it were possibly they would have dragged her forwards out of the intensity that they were at alert. Did he pull out something that was alive? Was it medicine? Thinking back to her past life, Isara only remembered ever seeing a bag whenever medicine was dispersed - and it never tasted good and usually didn’t do much. However, after he flopped at the base of one of the weird rocks he seemed to point to the item in question before speaking in words that she clearly didn’t understand. Slowly she approached the item - full of curiosity and caution. Just as her eyes beheld what looked like an odd pile of some sort of food, the male reached down and grabbed a piece for himself and proceeded to chew it. “Dina?” her soft voice half asked and half stated as she looked back down to the pile of meat before looking back at the male. Isara’s head cocked slightly as she watched him chew the weird meat before curiously getting closer to the meat to inspect it. Honestly, she didn’t know what to make of it at first. It looked weird and wrinkly…and dry. It obviously wasn’t poisoned since he ate a piece himself, right? Her nose began to sniff at the meat and soon her mouth began to water because it smelled delicious. A pang echoed within her stomach as it growled from hunger. Her ears fell backwards and her eyes darted upwards at the male wondering if he heard her stomach. After a few seconds however, she cautiously and gingerly took a piece between her teeth while looking at the male until she backed up slightly to chew on the food. And chew…and chew…chew chew chew…. Isara wasn’t sure what type of meat this was but it sure was the chewiest meat she had ever eaten. However, what it lacked in tenderness it had in flavor. Notes of spices and salt exploded within her mouth as she chewed upon the piece she picked up. Eventually, she managed to break through the toughness of the piece of meat and get it to a point where she could easily swallow it and once she did she eyed the pile again before looking at the male as she moved to nab another piece to eat. Once done, she sat down again as she chewed. When she was done with the second piece however the male hummed and she paused and looked at him. ‘My name is Ardyn.’ He said as he pointed to himself. Ardyn…he had mentioned that word before hadn’t he? She wondered what it meant…what any of what he had just said meant to be honest since none of the words seemed to align or sound similar to anything in her own native tongue. Then the male pointed at her and said another word… one that sounded almost exactly like one of her own language: You. There was a moment of silence as Isara tried to process and understand what he wanted. Was he trying to tell her something? Was he wanting her to do something? Perhaps he only wanted her to merely copy what he was doing and saying? Did Ardyn mean oneself or wolf in his language? The girl’s head cocked a bit more than it had earlier as she debated what to do. After a little while however, she decided to try what she thought was the safest option. Gesturing to herself, the young girl looked to the male - who seemed hopefully and eager about something - before echoing the foreign word with her own voice, “Arrrdyn,” her pronunciation could use some work as she lingered on the ‘r’ sound a bit long. After she finished though, her tail gave a small wag as she looked at the male hoping that he just wanted her to repeat him. It honestly seemed like the most logical choice at the given moment in her opinion so she waited to see just how he would respond back…while also maybe stealing a few glances back at the strange chewy meat that tasted delicious. But getting another piece could wait for now as she was more interested in how the male before her would respond. |
