Words on the Wind

Fic seemed to understand her fairly well! Asahi's short little puppy tail wagged back and forth as she nodded for the cream woman to set down the herbs.

"Yesss..." Asahi whispered and then began crushing and rubbing the herbs together between the rocks. She flicked an ear at Fic's comment about porcupines.
"Oh..." Came the smallest breath from her ivory maw. She didn't continue to ask what a porcupine was, but by the looks of it maybe she didn't want to know.

There! Once the herbs were all thoroughly mashed together and made into a paste Asahi stepped back and pointed to the mash and then made a motion to put the paste on her nose. As if to imply that Fic should do that.

"Mm... Ow's" She said, her voice a touch louder than before. Her tail wagged back and forth and she smiled. Maybe since her voice was getting stronger, she could tell her father's acquaintance what the herbs were called!
