here to relive your darkest moments He could not control the widening of his eyes when the girl darted her tongue out to lightly graze his cheek. He knew that the girl was in a daze, but that did not explain why the silver man enjoyed the brief affection that she showed him. His mind raced and he found himself wondering if it was something she had been holding back in her sobriety. Nonetheless, Flamesong knew that no matter what her intentions may be, he must not allow his feelings to cloud his judgement with the woman. She was a friend. And a Tortugan. Reverting back to his healing instincts, Flamesong reached into his small pack and pulled out a small plant with a flowering bud. He pushed the herb towards Qanik until his nose touched her own. "Eat these, dear. It's mint. It should take away some of your head pain and give you enough energy to stay awake." Amber eyes looked to the girl with concern and something else that confused him. He cared for her. And what had she been doing traveling so far from home in this storm? He wanted to ask her, to push his questions on her in hopes of result that would send him away, but he knew the answer would only be the same as his own. She was traveling to see him, just as he was traveling to see her. Could it be destiny? No, those things are for pups. He knew better than that. It was simply happening and he did not wish to stop it. With that thought in mind, he allowed his exterior to soften for the pale woman who lie helplessly before him. "Foolish is an exaggeration. And seeing you...seemed to be more that you were rescuing me from myself more than anything."His salmon tongue darted out as well, to lightly graze the muzzle of the girl. |
