"It's fine. Please don't do it again," The response brought a small smile to Novella's lips a little amused by it. She certainly didn't plan on doing it again, hadn't even intended upon it the first time around but she gave a nod of her head all the same. "OK, I won't." Of course it was a ridiculous thing to promise given that she had just accidentally made her jump only moments before hand, though she could promise it wasn't something she would ever intentionally do to her niece.
Whilst her words had seemed somewhat confident then, the young girl faltered slightly as Novella requested to come along. That was probably something that would please a parent, hesitance to travel anywhere with a stranger, though the fact she had left the pack lands on her own probably wouldn't be too much of a comfort. An introduction was most certainly required, Novella after all didn't actually know the pup's name though it was clearly evident that Fal'Dara had no idea at all who she was.
The introduction was all that was needed. The younger girl's expression suddenly brightened and her answer swiftly followed. "Well alright then, please do come!" It was a good answer in Novella's mind, glad to have the opportunity to look out for her niece as well as spend some time with her. "Great!" She smiled happily. "So what is your name then?"
