I'm a leaf on the wind

The stranger was more than enthusiastic, it appeared. It didn't take long for the brown furred femme to flip into a pose that was much more ladylike, and she was faced directly. Her query was met with a happy invitation to join the other in a relaxed period of rest. The joy was contagious, and soon the petite cream gal was beaming her own abashed smile as she was faced with an onslaught of inquiries. She edged a little closer, relaxing as she held the chocolate eyes of the strange woman before her. She chuckled a little, looking down at the ground and taking a deep breath. "How about I take those questions one at a time?" She laughed, her thick accent wrapping around merry melodies. She let out a deep breath, preparing to dish out her own tales and explanations.
She looked into the dark eyes of the lass and addressed the first question. A simple one, and she was obliged to return it as well. "My name is Alicia Buxton, but please, do call me Alice." She introduced herself with a smile, dipping her tiara in greeting. Her twilight pools remained fixed upon the features of her conversational partner, and she tilted her head to the side ever so slightly. "May I ask your name, miss?" She added, an easy smile remaining on her doll like features.
Then came a reply to the second query, another one she could answer just as easily as the first. She got that one a lot, the accent intrigued everyone it seemed. "I'm from a land to the northeast," She began, lifting a paw to gesture in the direction she could point out as easily as she could state her own name. "I believe it was once called England, and that's where my family is living." She added, and sighed as she remembered her family briefly. She missed them dearly, and wanted very much to see them again. It would be nice, and her younger siblings must have grown so much. When the comment on her accent met her gold dipped audits, she smiled abashedly, looking down for a moment. "Yes, I must seem so odd to you. But thank you, I am glad I am bringing you a new voice to hear, I'm always happy to be the bringer of such things." She chuckled, her blue-violet eyes crinkling at the edges with her gentle smile. She was telling the truth, making others happy was always a grand thing. Whether she amused them with her constant cheery attitude, or brought wonder with her tainted vocals. She loved every bit of it.
Now for a response to the length of her time in these lands, which was not as long as many, but longer than some. She looked up at the sky, mulling over this. She wasn't quite sure how long it had been since she had arrived, but definitely a few seasons. Maybe she'd gotten here in spring? Or was it summer? Looking down again to the features of the other woman, her features became twisted into an expression of slight confusion. "I must say, I'm not quite sure how long it's been since I arrived here. Maybe a season or two?" She replied, her thick accent once more ringing in the air with a clear alto melody. She'd have to think on that some more later, though it might not really matter all too much in the long run. The next query prompted her to chuckle again, and nod slowly. "yes, I think I will stay. My family doesn't need me coming back and being another hungry mouth." She informed the stranger with an amused tone.
The question of her adventures was definitely not one she got often, and she nodded again, still smiling. "I have had adventures, but not as many as I would like." She replied, her gaze taking on a wistful edge. She'd definitely met some interesting wolves, and seen some amazing things. "Would you like to hear about some of them? I would love to tell you all about my journey here, if you'd hear it." She asked, quirking a brow and tilting her cranium once more to the side. Stories were her favourite things to tell, to hear, and she always wanted to hear more of them. Maybe this stranger had seen even more interesting things here than she had? The final inquiry was met at first with yet another amused chuckle, and a shrug of petite cream shoulders was offered. "I guess I sort of am, though I wouldn't take any credit for it. I only wander about, and follow whatever interests me." She told the stranger, her large pools glittering. She called her travels adventures, sure, but she wouldn't call herself an adventurer, she didn't go all over in search of these things. It was purely a find and see type of deal.
