XD Liliya too was amazed at her father's ability to read such things; it was incomprehensible gibberish to her, and she shook her head as she tried to look at all of the little words. The pictures did make sense, and she was filled with excitement as she saw the image of a bed, jumping a little at her brother's side. She seemed to light up for the first time since they'd entered the dank subway, most definitely at the idea of settling down for the evening. "Oh, oh, I can't wait," the young woman said loudly, her tail wavering in the air. Silas took off and Liliya bounded after him, momentarily forgetting her reservations about this scary new place in her elation to be with her family and heading to something like a home. Food was even more mouthwatering of a possibility, and Lily's stomach rumbled at the possibility of warm meat. Rurik grinned as he watched his children in their excitement, happy himself to be finally settling down into a real bed. He was certain they would be there—big cities in places like these were left largely untouched, except in the cases where the wilderness had begun to reclaim the city. Grass and moss grew rampantly in cracks in the asphalt, and poorly made buildings had begun to decay. Rurik would have to ascertain the quality of the building before they moved in anywhere. Strangely enough, to the Russian it would seem that the older the building, the better the chance it was in good quality. Human architecture was a strange thing indeed, but he supposed it made sense that buildings which had survived centuries of human abuse would stand long after its creators had perished. The Russian wolf stepped quickly up the steps, following his children toward the exit to this shadowy, strange place. "Oy, you sure can't wait," he said as he reached the top. |
