She might have thought that he didn't notice, but he could very well feel her pale gaze upon his form. Not that he wasn't used to it, when you had a coat like him it was often stared at. He looked like someone had taken two different animals and spliced them, mixing them all together to make the strange looking creature. It didn't bother him though, he liked himself just the way he was. Really, if he would have been given the option to change he wouldn't take it. What if he hadn't turned out the same way if he had looked different? No, he was made to be the way that he was. But as he spoke, her gaze rose up from his form to meet his own chocolate gaze. That small smile was still on his lips, head turning slightly to the side as she spoke. It was one that he had thought about many times, if he would even be able to look down at those below. Or if he even had anyone left on this earth to look down upon. His smile faded as his nod was stiff, his whole body standing slightly more ridged. It tortured him that he didn't know where his family was, and that it had been nearly two years since he last saw them. Shuddering slightly, he shook his head to scatter the thoughts. Here he was having a pleasant conversation with a very pretty lady, and he was thinking about his lost family. But the truth was, it was very hard to forget about them...
When he was telling his story, he saw something akin to a memory in her eyes. A light of recognition. So she did know the story then? When she teased about being the human Astrea coming back to earth, his head tipped back and let out a boom of laughter. His gaze slowly moved back down to her, a large grin still on his maw. "But you're better than mere humans," he said after a few moments, his chocolate eyes alight with humor, "do you still see humans around today? No, but we are," Seerten looked down briefly as her tail flicked closer to his own fluffy tail, a soft hum leaving his throat. He thought that it was strange, but did not oppose to its closeness. He flicked his own tail, brushing it over hers for a brief moment. She commented about him calling her a star goddess, staying that she wouldn't put a bet on that. His face grew more serious as he slowly shook his head back and forth. "You are more than just a wolf with stars on her tail. You are Astrea. You are yourself, and there is no one else out there like you," his voice was tender and sweet, his head moving down as he attempted to press his nose to her forehead. "Is there anything else out there like you? I doubt it."
Seerten pulled himself back, finding himself crossing a few boundaries. Clearing his throat, his pale cheeks grew hot as he looked up towards the stars again. A soft sigh pushed thought his lips, body shaking slightly as he tried to ease himself. Perhaps it was the feeling that they were drawn to the stars, causing them to be drawn to each other. Or maybe it was that they were both truth speaking wolves. They were able to connect through such a short time. After several moments he looked back down at her, a tiny smile on his lips. "Do you live around here Astrea?" he asked, wondering if she had a long journey to make tonight. "If not there are a few caves here, I wouldn't mind some company," he blushed again, an uneasy chuckle rumbling in his throat, "I mean there is more than one den, so you don't have to be crammed up with me. Or..." chocolate eyes looked back up at the sky, his head tilting to the side once more. "or we could spend the night outside. Its very beautiful tonight."
