Going through the motions

ooc; no problem ^^

White ears flattened as Saul touched Siku's warm cheek, and she tightened her grip on the cloak around her as she watched him register what she had said. The fragile featured wolf felt a little guilty as the younger wolf came to realize what she was trying to tell him. Perhaps he wasn't old enough to understand what had happened to her, but something about the way he looked at her made Siku think he wasn't far from adulthood. A lopsided grin revealed amusement as Siku glanced at the larger wolf, one round ear pricked forward as she spoke in an older, more tired tone than previously.

"You don't need to say anything. You've done enough for me already, just sitting here.

Golden eyes glanced down at Saul's hands as they fidgeted in the snow. Siku's lopsided grin faded to a slight smile as she sensed that he was at a loss for words. The white she-wolf watched as Saul lifted his gaze to meet hers, and returned a glance as he spoke to her comfortingly. It doesn't matter. Siku decided that perhaps Saul was right. It didn't matter anymore, because she was safe now. A gentle longing for the North tugged at her heart, but the desire to be a part of her pack diluted any urge she had to visit the cold wastelands she used to call home. Wistful day dreams vanished as the golden eyed wolf noticed Saul's shift in nature, from serious to playful in just a moment of thought. The smaller, slimmer Dahlian shook off the shower of snow that coated the cloak smugly. Glittering eyes on the larger wolf, she slowly took off the cloak and folded it neatly before setting it down nicely. After this, she suddenly sprang for Saul, intending to knock him down into the fluffy snow that surrounded them. Not weighing enough to simply knock Saul down, instead the white wolf sent them rolling off the snow bank in a tangled heap as she growled playfully. He might have been larger, and perhaps stronger, but Siku was quick when she wanted to be. She managed to detangle herself from him after the tumble, and rolled away to distance herself from his next move with a breathless laugh. Siku found that Saul always made her feel a little lighter when her thoughts would drag her down. Maybe things were gonna turn out better than she'd hoped, after all.
