Often, when Celeste needed to contemplate herself or get some alone time, she found herself lounging in the shade with the doves. Their soft cooing was relaxing in a way as they pecked across the sand for bugs. This one particular day, she had snuggled herself against some trees with her lengthened tail wrapped over her haunches. Winter had begun to dissipate but recent heavy rains kept a chill in the air. Nearly lulled into a sleeping state, she was pulled back into reality when the thud of paws brought her ears to attention.

Thankfully, her current position kept her well hidden from the dire boy that had her so googly-eyed all the time. Not that she really showed it. They were still young and she was content to build her reputation within Ashen while he did his own thing. Not really questioning why Kuroki was appearing so forlorn at first, Celeste was happy to spy on him from afar. That was until the hissing "come on pussy" caused her head to tilt slightly. What had gotten his knickers in a knot?

Brow slightly furrowed, the petite girl stood up and made her way over to him. "Need to get something off your chest?" There was a twinge of concern laced into her vocals as she slid up beside him. Not too close, just in case he was angry or something, but close enough that she had to turn her chin upward to see his melanistic gaze.
