Sparrow noticed that Myri seemed interested when she mentioned Vesper and her relations with her. She then remembered, as an after-thought, that her sibling may have never spoken about her, and again the fawn felt the pang of emptiness she felt between the sisters. The girl felt a little sad when her thoughts were confirmed, but pushed the feelings aside, and nodded to show mutual feelings towards their meeting; now that they were together again, the mottled female will make it a priority to become close to her sister, to maybe even impress her one day. That, though, was a long road that Sparrow had only began to step upon, and it was going to be a journey to find its end that won’t be finished overnight. Besides, at the moment, all she was concerned about was with the ginger hybrid in front of her and the thing she possessed.

She heard of books before, the things that held knowledge that humans recorded before the virus came. But, never seeing one before, she was unable to recognize them, and now looked upon the open book on the table. Now the symbols had meaning—they somehow showed information to the canine, which was probably why Myri was staring at them earlier. Sparrow glanced at the seat that Myri offered, and carefully walked towards the couch, floating down to sit how the other was sitting; it felt awkward, not sitting on the floor and not pulling her legs up to her chest like she usually did out of mannerisms, but did not make any remark upon the position that the human furniture caused.

“How do the words… ‘tell’ information?” she asked. She knew that Myri did not literally mean that the written word had a tongue, but she was still confused as how it was used. To Sparrow, they just looked like a bunch of weird markings, as if a human just took some mud, scribbled things, and let the sheets out to dry. It didn’t look like mud, though, so the fawn was also silently curious as to how the words came to be, but, finding it a moot question, held her voice.
