Sybil had been anticipating the call from Mercury, and to some degree she had been looking forward to it. Her own curiosity pushed her forward. Who was this strange man? Where had he come from? And, most importantly, were he and Wren an item? This investment in this relationship between them was nothing more than a vestigial urge from girlhood, something she acknowledged as such. She had been raised with the expectation of gossip, to not partake would be peculiar and she found herself gravitating toward it almost naturally. Mercury held a similar kind of sea-salt charm to Wren, humble but not unambitious. She could tolerate a lot, but she had a hard time dealing with the unambitious. Without a vision of the future, how could you ever move forward at all? She padded toward him, giving a curious glance to the pair of quarrelling foxes as she did, then watching the sea bird at his shoulder, growing more certain of her assumption. Yes, this was a wolf of water. “Mercury. You called?” ⋅•⋅⊰∙∘☽༓☾∘∙⊱⋅•⋅ |
