Take a chance

Walk | Talk | Think She thought she disappointed him. He did not scowl or pout but his smile did smooth away, replaced by something that was neither angry or sad but close to indifferent, and it was just enough to worry her. Without being fully conscious of it, Anais's ears turned back and tucked against her head as she peered upward into Glacier's face, expecting some rough statement to signify he was displeased with her answer, maybe even something sharper to say that he would not accept her excuses, but with her counteroffer spoken he seemed to relent, smiling again in that teasing manner of his as he agreed to her terms conditionally. Relieved, thrilled, the golden-eyed wolf appeared to bounce on her toes, excitement pouring from her smile and her wagging tail. She was going on an adventure! Of course, where had yet to be determined, but Glacier had his ideas. He was on the lookout for places where he and his family, the one he had briefly mentioned in secrecy on their initial meeting, could settle, and immediately Anais's mind was racing. She thought of the pack she had once been part of, Ebony of the east, but so much time had passed she wondered if it was still there. As for the ones who resided closest to the Fjord...six months was the last time she had ventured off away from this territory, and a lot could have happened in that time. But maybe not knowing of a place to suggest right off the bat would be better in the end. It meant she got to go run around with Glacier, and she could not think of anything more fun in that moment to do with her free time. "I'd love to help," she answered, tail wagging as the rest of her slowly relaxed and let the excitement of the moment fill her. "It's been a while since I've got to do any kind of adventuring," she chuckled shyly, though the shyness was not nearly strong enough to overpower the eagerness apparent in her smiling expression. This was a rare treat, and she intended to take full advantage of it while she could. "What kind of place are you and your family looking for?" Her question was both curious and inquisitive, trying to get a sense of where he might like to head. Maybe they would even need to stretch their search today to make it longer than originally planned, a possibility that, if she was being honest with herself, sounded awfully tempting to go along with despite the reservations she had spoken of. |
