FILLER! 8D

Yumiko smiled and nodded as Anne basically said she'd do whatever Yumiko wanted her to do, to pay her back. It was very odd for her to think about, so she focused instead on the girls bickering. It was strangely entertaining to watch, and as Leah shot a glance her way Yumiko returned her grin with a mock horrific gasp, ignoring Anne's protests. "Killed by food?! What a horrific idea! I like food too much to think it could hurt me!" she said, her expression playfully horrified by the very idea.

Anne pouted and Yumiko grinned at her metaphorically ruffled feathers. The fire had slowly died while they talked, and now barely had flames within the logs. She got to her feet carefully and stretched her legs, noticing the sun was hovering low near the horizon. It was nearly dinner, and she -- well, the three of us, she supposed, should be getting home.

Her eyes turned back to see Leah lingering on an affectionate head rub, and Yumiko's tail swished once at the tender scene. The two continued to bicker, but the sweeter feeling still lingered in the freezing air. Leah turned with embaressment and Yumiko quickly averted her eyes, suddenly uncomfortable with the idea of being caught watching the sisterly love they shared.

She felt eyes on her back that were clearly beaming a time to go now signal, so she turned her head back briefly and saw Anne stand and nod. "Valient leader is right, little one!" she said playfully. Since she wasn't much older then them herself, it wasn't condescending like a 7 year old calling them pups. It was more like a brother calling you 'Kiddo' affectionately. She paused, thinking, and toed a snow-clump at her toes. "If you wouldn't mind, I'd prefer to go four-legged. It's faster and easier to navigate the forests then in this form." It was always an awkward subject for her, because it was like a human saying they preferred to go nude in the summer because it was cooler (although far less contreversial...). It was just one of those things she, and many other wolves and luperci, just never got used to discussing.


"Talk." Walk. Think.
