When the earth was young and the air was sweet

+5. Yes, this just happened.. XD

As both laughter and happiness were all-around contagious, the

coywolf's tail gave an obvious wag or two as the two patrolling females before him shared in his glee. Though, despite how cheerful he might have been on the outside, inside there was turmoil. Within Bangle, he knew Skye would be angry at him for leaving at a time like this, when she needed him the most, to a place she did not know about. This trip was a surprise for her, mainly, but the coywolf also felt like he needed to help the pack in some way by finding new goods for them all. It was an introduction to a whole new culture itself, for those wolves who had yet to visit AniWaya, but also things to adore and admire.

A casual nod went to each girl as they gave their name, and

listened to their profession. It was strange to the traveling

merchant how such young girls could be scouts, when they still

needed looking after themselves, but he shrugged this off. Another

toothy, almost cocky-like grin adorned his muzzle when each girl

casually asked what he had to offer the AniWayans. He reached over

to his hip, where his lute was strapped, and unhitched it. Among

all the other things that framed him, Bangle always knew where his

instrument was. Bringing it towards his belt-laced chest, he

strummed it once before he began to speak in a sing-song voice.

"Ol' Bangle's got some freshly cured hides n' stitching

awls, plus some things that'd make yer skin crawl," he began,

strumming once after each pause. Pulling this stunt out of

nowhere, he continued. "Jewelry even yeh might like, some

sturdy as bone or shines like th' sky~" Bangle winked, never

missing a beat to his made-up tune. "Flint arrowheads n' wooden

bowls, everythin' from fresh goat's milk ter ceremonial

skulls!" The coywolf began to walk around the pair, the beat

becoming a bit more up-tempo. "Soft, plush furs sure t'

impress, or wooden beads for a fine necklace~" As he said this, he draped a quick arm over Ayasha's shoulders, then removed it and continued to stroll around behind them. "Carved horns n' elk teeth, or a nice dagger fer yer sheath, come spring or fall - this gypsy's got it all!" A goofy grin, and another strum of the lute strings.

The up-tempo slowed down a bit, as Bangle finished his circling of the pair. "Now you've heard this song's intent, with this fine instrument. The question I ask of you on my hike.." A pause, as the coywolf stood in the place he began, in front of them. Leaning forward, he took an obvious breath. "You liiiiike?" Bangle's eyebrows wiggled, and the final, drawn out word led his fingers to do some fast strumming on the strings. Then he fell quiet, still beaming at the pair and awaiting their response.

But he wasn't silent for long, and Bangle realized the words that the young white woman said to him. He had seen the white woman when she passed by making her supply runs, and Bangle nodded feverishly. "'N I'm sure she's a great mother already t' yeh, lil' lass. Surely she'd surely know what t' trade fer another expecting female, eh?" He winked. "Though I don' doubt other AniWayans have som'n Cercatori'd be interested in."
