Little Anais was the only wolf he knew in this world of stranger, outside of his immediate family. If she was the representation of this world then he would see it as a place of either gentle timid souls, or of wolves that would force others to be this way. The brutes silver eyes clouded as he once again found himself wondering why Anais was this way. He did not know her enough to ask, nor to figure it out yet on his own – for all he knew it could simply be her way, but either conclusion did not lesson his desire to show her the world in a way that would boost her confidence of self. “Is there another Little Mouse I should know about?” he wondered, his tone serious and his eyes flicked back and forth as through looking for this other before falling back onto her with a teasing half smile. His eyes found her golden orbs, and he could see the want there in them, and knew his idea had captivated her. Yet, even as he watched he would see the excitement and life fade from her eyes and his own head would tilt almost imperceptibly to the side as he took that in and analyzed it. He knew she wanted this adventure, and anyone could see that something was holding her back, was it her fear? Even now did she still worry that going off somewhere with this Titanic stranger would seal her doom? He didn't need to wonder for long at what went on behind her golden orbs, she would explain to him why adventuring was difficult and at first would turn down his offer completely. His own smile would slip away, through his expression would settle on neutral at its downfall. He still didn't understand the dynamics between Anais and Lebrah, but clearly this and her brother held her back enough to turn down something she clearly wanted and so it was he would learn something new about Anais – others came before herself, in this her and Glacier where somewhat similar, his siblings where always foremost in his thoughts, the difference was they where old enough to look after themselves even if he would never stray from them for too long. The light returned to Anais's eyes, and with that bright spark, in the moment, he couldn't have said no for the world. “Well.. I suppose I can accept one day... for now” he teased, hinting this might not be the only adventure to come. “I'm not familiar with Alacritis, and I need to travel more of it, to find places to suggest to my siblings where we might settle, do you think you could help me with that Anais? We could go half a day in one direction before we return again” he suggested, to fit in with her need to not leave her responsibilities for any longer. |
