She could feel the woman's eyes studying her. Suddenly, she felt overwhelming shamed. This coyote was perfect. Her appearance was so unique compared to her own, blander, coat. Whether her fur had been dyed, or she was simply born this way, Le could not tell. But either way, she was just as lovely. The wolfdog stepped back some, adverting her attention to the dusty shelf. No longer could she stand the uneven comparison-- It was like comparing a beautifully decorated cupcake to a plain muffin. In order to avoid making Pride feel as though she had offended her in some way, she simply moved on. "I wasn't looking in the caves. Outside, am not stupid." She rolled her lavender eyes. It was more in a playful manner than a disrespectful one.. She didn't feel as though being on her bad side would be a very good idea.
"I remember the storm. Mama called it something with an H.. It was real scary." She remembered the smell in the air, before the bad weather even really started. The clouds were dark and gloomy, then before she knew it they were upon them like a cat pouncing upon a helpless mouse. She directed her eyes in the same direction as this albino female had, trying to locate exactly what she was looking at. "You mean.. You are going to get rid of them?" It seemed like a dumb question, even to her. But she felt like she had to ask. Just because something was 'useless' didn't always mean that the given person was looking to get rid of it. Some times, she had noticed, people kept things around for the sole reason of holding on to a memory. This she couldn't exactly understand. She was always looking for new things to add to her collection, but in her mind, these things would help her in the near future. Whether she would be trading them away, or putting it to use herself.
She felt an overwhelming cupidity to get her hands on these maps. She hadn't the ability to read, but drawings she could understand. These maps, even if not completely accurate anymore, could help her keep from getting lost. Sure, some of the landmarks had changed. But she could still probably get an approimate idea of where she was from these charts of geographical areas, right? "Can I have them? If you don't want them anymore? I can help you with something. Help yous find new ones, maybe?"
