  The golden male's eyes widened slightly as she turned to face him--those eyes. They seemed an awful lot like the ones that stared back at him in pools of water, but then again, Asphyxia's line seemed to possess a similar gene. Remembering that some of the older coyote's children were still missing, he now found himself wondering if this might be one of them. That would explain the familiarity, at least, and this girl obviously had some coyote in her (the shape of the head gave it away, since he couldn't see the rest of her body). In the deepest recesses of his mind, though, he sensed that something still didn't add up.One hand lifted up out of the water and he waved and forced a small smile. Still working off of his previous assumption, he had nothing to fear. He dove under the surface of the water and moved closer, resurfacing only when he figured that they'd be able to comfortably talk. If he stretched, his toes could barely touch the surface of the ground below, although he'd practically have to tilt his head back to keep his nose above water. This was sure a strange spot for a conversation, but it would have to do."Yeah; trying to enjoy these days while they last," he remarked. He continued to look at her oddly, and finally he decided to test his hypothesis. "You wouldn't happen to be one of Asphyxia's girls, would you? She told me that y'all would be in the area..." Here he trailed off, head inclined slightly to one side. Had she seen her "mother" yet? The darkly coloured matron would surely be delighted to know that Midnight (or whoever this was) had shown up! |
