Funny Seeing You Here

Standing right beside her, he could easily see her face soften. That mischievous look she had faded away, and Ixionn's heart stopped racing for a brief moment. All his naughty thoughts disappeared and he was completely transparent to her alluring aroma. Was she okay? Had he said something stupid? The boy thought back onto what he had said to her before, lowering his eyes to the ground and thinking hard. Perhaps she thought they weren't quite friends, but acquaintances? The masked boy rolled his shoulders back and parted his lips to speak, when she let out a smooth bit of laughter. Ixionn's face instantly became bright with joy.

It came to him that he was himself when he was distracted. Whether it be worried about Gale, laughing with Gale, anything with Gale. After all, she was a great friend, despite their brief meetings. He would never do anything to her, no matter how much his body insisted on it. Of course, unless she allowed it. He was still very inexperienced though...and he suspected she was, too. Ixionn shook his head and let out a growl, stepping in front of her and seating himself. He perked his ears and focused all his attention on her despite the aroma that still hissed violently in his ear.

"I never get visitors," She began, turning his gears. He frowned and tilted his head. Why not? She was so cheerful, pretty, fun to be around! She needed more visitors...or, at the very least, more visits from him. Everyone needed to feel special once and awhile. The boy stood to his feet and backed up a few steps, lowering down and outstretching his forelegs forward. He let out a loud yawn, looking up at Gale and grinning crookedly.

"I guess I'm your first, then! And I won't be your last, that is for sure." He joked, sitting up with wag of his tail. He seated himself once more, focusing on her, not that smell that emitted from her. Fortunately he was getting used to it, and he was beginning to train his gut not to have a fit when the aroma got strong. The worst he would do if the aroma got too strong would be to stand and press himself against her, to soothe a bit of his needs at least for that moment. But right now, it wasn't too bad. So he didn't need to worry about it. "Actually, I like it down here a lot better. It is warmer, plus, you live down here. It got boring up north without you." He admitted, shrugging.

The man slowly lowered down to his stomach, feeling much more relaxed and calm. But his neck would soon get tired from looking up at her. Eh...he smiled sheepishly, his tail patting the ground gently. "How are you and your family doing?" He asked, actually pretty curious. She had mentioned during their last visit that she was part of a large, loving family that basically made up the entire pack. Which, he thought was pretty neat. So he wanted to know! Plus, his mind was beginning to drift from Gale to the heat smell.
