Don't roll your eyes, roll your r's

Iris's ears perk forward as she hears her new friend call back and she practically dances a welcome as Fic draws near. Her dusken tail swayed behind her.

A large male follows behind her and she grows suspicious, her dance coming to a stop and her body becomes still. Since Fic doesn't seem perturbed by him Iris relaxes a little and reflexively smiles at him.

Then someone who must be a healer came out of the shadows, a dark crimson woman! She introduces herself as Melisande.

"Bonjour! Melisande, I am Iris!" She welcomes with a dip of her head and a thick accent. The way she speaks the ending of Mel's name is like leaving the last note of a song on a breath.

"I am happier you all came! I was (h)oping we could share zhe healing knowledge? Togezher." She said, wondering if they knew how to apply contraceptive herbs as her aunt showed her.

"I know ways to keep from falling with child, iz any of you interest?" She asked, tucking her four dainty paws together and wrapping her tail around her feet.
