Asa had made a habit of exploring the frozen confines of the ship to pass the hours. He had no real motivation to leave, or do anything else, so he'd been content to laze around throughout the day. The frozen metal of the ship chilled the air and left the russet wolf in discomfort. If he hadn't been so unmotivated, he undoubtedly would have moved days ago. His nose twitched as a scent hit him, and for a moment he dismissed it as a hallucination. When it persisted, heavy and heady in the confined space, he stood with a groan. His limbs felt frozen. With stiff steps Asa headed for a hole in the hull, a space he'd chosen as his exit. His muscles were already loosening as he jumped through the small space, for once grateful to be a lithe-figured male. Even though he'd sensed someone, actually spotting the small female was somehow a surprise for him. He'd be a hypocrite if he underestimated anyone based on their size, and so Asa retained his distance, cautiously examining the young girl. "Are you lost, kid?" He called, head tilted curiously. It was doubtful, since she smelled more at home at the wreck than he did. He wouldn't qualify her as someone too young to be all alone, but really that just made the male nervous. If she had company then fine, but he'd feel better being able to see it. "Are you alone?" |
