uh oh spaghettios!

Minutes pass and Rheum begins to wonder if she will have to limp all the way back home. Testing it by gingerly pressing it against the snow-covered ground, she winces. Thankfully it isn't broken but it's twisted enough that she's not sure if she can put weight on it. So she sits, shivering in the cold, whimpering like a weakling as she hopes some knight in shining armor will come save her. It is silly of Rheum to think that, but not terribly long someone does come along.

A pirate in... tusked glory? Her gaze quickly moves to the sound of someone scrambling down the embankment. He looks to be about her age but much burlier and donning a few more mutations than she did. Well, Rheum didn't have any. Compared to her siblings, she was "normal." Either way, she hoped the guy approaching her was nice and going to offer help. If he wasn't, she might actually be in trouble. Trying to hide the fact that she was freezing as she grit her teeth together, she huddled in on herself to try and appear smaller. If she wasn't a threat he wouldn't hurt her, right?

In fact, he didn't. Instead, Rheum met his furrowed brow with a frown of her own. "Oi, You don't say," she spits out in sarcastic Japanese before remembering she's not within the bamboo. Letting out a sigh, Rheum looks down to her twisted ankle. "Apologies, jus' in some bit o' pain. Nah sure if I can,"her accent switches effortlessly as her common tongue matches that of her mother. "Can ye help?" Rheum looks back up with her wide yellow eyes as she lightly lifts her paw as if to say "I'm useless."
