soft inter moments

OOC: I’ll pm you tomorrow, Wednesday I’ll be in class too, but it’s a computer/art class and I’m infront of the computer the whole time. Hopefully we can work something out. And Firefly would have no problem laying blame to Haku for hurting Amaranth. Anything against him brightens her day. Sosu-748

She couldn’t help the little smirk that appeared upon her lips as the girl settled in and began to chatter away. Her eyes danced as the girl spoke of her parents and their take on raising children. When she mentioned that she wasn’t suppose to wonder far from Vigilante’s house Firefly raised a brow as she spoke up. ”Aren’t you a little ways from home now then?” She knew that Amaranth wouldn’t be harmed at Jacquez cabin and she was there to watch after her anyways so she wasn’t going to push for the child to return to her mother, besides, they were only young once.

She shifted her weight from one hip to the other as she went on. ”Yes, I do know your father. He was one of the founding members of our pack.” She failed to mention that he had been the mate of one of her best friends at the time and how things had been a bit strange when the two had split off their relationship and went their separate ways. Instead Firefly just looked down at the girl as she smiled. ”You have a look about him.. well, perhaps more your uncle, but it’s not hard to see that you’re his daughter.” She said warmly as she eyed the youth for a moment longer.

When the conversation turned towards Elroy she heard the cat give a disgruntled grunt as the girl commented on his looks. Her lips twitched as she raised a brow at the cat’s reaction as she went on. ”Well, he’s quite lovely for his own kind..” She smirked as she watched the cat puff and preen at the compliment before she went on. ”But yes, he is rather weird looking when compared to our own.” She couldn’t help but smile innocently at the disgusted look that crossed Elroy’s small wedged up face. She so loved to see him in a mood for a change.

She glanced back to Amaranth as she shrugged. ”They don’t live in the woods much I guess, except for their larger cousins, they are mountain lions or cougars, and there’s lynx and bobcats.. but all of them are much larger than Elroy. A lion is even bigger than a full grown wolf.. and a lynx and bobcat are bigger than you are now.” She was silent a moment before continuing on. ” Elroy’s family lives in the human city, what’s left of them anyways.” She wasn’t about to admit that she’d eaten his mother and she wasn’t even for certain if he had any real family left. There was always the colony of cats that he’d come from though, there were probably some relatives there at least.

She moved on to the porch, climbing the steps as she listened to Amaranth behind her. She smiled softly to herself as she admitted. ”Yes, you’ll be quite a little lady when you grow up.” Firefly had yet to really met a wolf that wasn’t striking in some way and she knew that Amaranth would probably be just the same. Her eyes turned back to the girl as she wondered on the last words that she’d spoken of, worrying still that something wasn’t right if the girl was asking if she was going to be made into a meal.

When she finally did speak up as she followed along behind Firefly the silver and gold woman felt a creeping sensation down her spine as she listened silently until she reached the porch and plopped down on one of the benches that served as seats. There were many blankets out on the seats as Firefly often sat on the porch and watched Elroy or even for Jacquez in the evening, about the time he returned for the night. She let her eyes fall back on the girl as she frowned slightly. ”So no one in the pack has said or done anything mean to you?” She wanted to make certain that this stranger who had tried to eat her wasn’t someone close at hand.

She wrapped a blanket around her frame as she stared off into the distance as Elroy gave up on hunting in the woods and came back to join them on the closed in porch. She flicked an ear back as she asked Amaranth. ”Why did he think you’d be yummy?” She couldn’t stop the shiver that danced down her back as the words escaped her lips. She didn’t like the sound of this at all.
