Skinning small game was a quick job, but there were a lot of small parts to pay attention to so fingers weren’t sliced apart. Dixie had one rabbit and one squirrel skinned when she heard the soft voice coming from the left. Smiling a bit, she tilted her head up and took in the sight of her visitor. A beautiful woman with a tricolored, long furred coat… Someone else with ridiculously long hair covering their body! The smile on her face grew into a happy grin and she patted the ground at her side. C’mon an’ sit down, hun. I’m Dixie-May, What’s yer name?
Just as she was reaching to begin cutting at the squirrel on her lap, a soft, very faded scent hit her nostrils and made her head snap up. Eyes wide, she stared at the woman for a few moments, looking her over again. You smell like the ocean…got a boat? Dixie was intrigued now, was this woman indeed a sailor? And if she was…was there any chance of maybe going out on the boat with her someday? The small white woman had always wanted to go sailing, but had never gotten the chance. The fishing was also great fun, something that she’d always enjoyed doing.
I was born an’ raised waaay down south, where it gets real hot and the storms are deadly, right there on the warm ocean. Her hand slid to the side, knife blade slicing a strip of fresh meat from the small carcass. Smiling, she held the piece out to the woman, hoping that she would like the little offering of friendship. This was pretty much the only thing she had to offer at the moment, besides maybe a tour of the fort and horse riding lessons. There was no way for her to show a token of friendship, which a lot of luperci seemed to like.
