Bonk!

Her presence beside him clearly hadn't been detected, because the moment she spoke up, Juniper saw the golden giant's body jump with a start, the biggest blue eyes she'd ever seen turning down to gawk at her. She giggled and offered him an apologetic smile. "Sorry! Didn't mean to startle ya." He agreed with her assessment that the world looked beautiful covered in snow, then admitted to not always liking the cold but liking how the snow looked. Hmm, it was a conundrum for sure. "Well, they tend to go paw in paw, unfortunately. At least, I haven't heard of warm snow before." June snickered to herself, quite tickled by her own humor.

After she introduced herself, the giant brute gave his name to her. Arcturus—just Arcturus. Okay, she could roll with that. He gave her permission to stay and keep him company, reasoning that it would probably do him some good. "Well if company's what you need, then it's company I can provide," she remarked, coming closer to sit beside him, their absurd difference in size truly highlighted when they were next to one another. A cold breeze rippled through Juniper's thick winter coat, and the vagabond fae tipped her muzzle up into it to welcome it like an old friend. A smile sat easy on her face as her fur was tousled and ruffled by the wind. "Ahhh, smell that air! It smells like freedom... like adventure!" Looking up at Arc again, the petite fae tipped her head to one side, considering him. "So how come you're out here all on your own just staring at the world, Arcturus?" What was his story, she wondered?

"Juniper of the Sea"
