There was an odd feeling whiten her as she watched the two of them. A mother and daughter, the girl was so grown yet the two of them seemed close. Her own parents were somewhat like that before she ran but she knew the dark side they held long before she ran. Even if she didn't they would never be able to have a relationship with that, perhaps she would never have such a relationship with anyone. But that was just silly inner brooding, it would be rude to ignore the two before her and focus on her own weak thoughts. The younger one, Koi spoke while using her name, an odd thing but perhaps that was just the way she was. Either way she was glad both the daughter and the mother understood her possessiveness over the water. Turning her head to the Mother as she spoke she nodded at their names, Vahva and Koi. Watching Koi get a drink she wondered how long it had been since either of them had water. Alphonso watched them as well tilting his head this way and that. He was fascinated with wolves from the way they walked to the way the drank and loved to watch them. Moving to Isabella he rested on he paws to get a better vantage point. At Koi's question the gecko beamed as Isabella's eyes grew softer. The question was a fun one to answer, it showed how Isabella was a curious wolf and Alphonso loved to startle wolves. They held on answering the question until both wolves were settled and in the mean time Isabella looked to Vahva. "A ferret as a companion? I bet it would be a bit easier with a furred creature, one that spoke more like us and had a tolerance for the cold." At her words Alphonso squirmed on her paws, a bit insulted. "But," Isabella continued. "things that are good in life are often not easy." Alphonso smiled satisfied as they prepared to tell their story. Isabella looked down at him but he paused. "You start Madam." He said with a nod. Isabella nodded and looked to the mother and daughter before her. "I am a wolf who loves noting more than the Ocean yet who is curious about many things. When I first found the ocean of sand I was almost lost in it for I had never seen a place such as that or been in one so hot. It caught my interest and when I was stronger and wiser I went back and decided to look around from atop a massive dune." She paused and nodded to Alphonso. "Well, I was out that day wanting to sun myself and get so nice and warm! I also was looking for food of course and happened to see a wolf in the desert, well that happens sometimes and since I can talk your language there is noting more fun than seeing your rations when I first speak! The jackals, one of which that taught me to speak, had good reactions but wolves were even better since most of you haven't seen us before." He paused an Isabella picked it up. "I was indeed surprised and curious, this gecko was also a scholar and wanted to learn, to see the world and learn what cold is. That and I feel like he would have followed me anyway." Alphonso laughed at that feeling he would have done just that. Having said all that was asked of her Isabella fell silent and looked to Vahva and Koi not really having much to say next. Conversation was sometimes fun but that didn't mean Isabella was very good at it. "My words are for all.""My thoughts are not." |
