301.
The sea was like another mother to Rurik. It had carried him where he needed to go and cared for him—there were both long and lonely months spent sailing by himself, and happier ones, spent sailing with his family or good friends. Either way, it mattered little—the sea was just that, and it would always be the same. The silver-shaded werewolf knew this—there was no chance for change in the ocean.
The silver-shaded werewolf's gentle greeting did nothing to calm the woman, and she whirled on him with all the ferocity he had expected. He shrank back slightly, taking a step or two away from her. Rurik was not afraid—fear was a rather foreign emotion to the calm, large werewolf—but he wished to give her space nonetheless. After a moment, however, she seemed to calm down somewhat, and dropped the dagger to the earth. It fell into the sand where it stuck, and Rurik offered her his palms and a smile to show he was unarmed, glad that he had left his sword back in the house today.
“Не беспокойтесь.” he said, the tip of his tail wagging slowly in the air behind him. His pale eyes watched her as she stooped to pick up the garmet, watching the curves of her body. There was something oddly familiar about her to the silver-shaded werewolf, though he could not place what it was exactly. Had they met before, in Sobirat'sya? “Может быть. Очень приятно здесь, однако. Океана, деревья ...” the werewolf started, trailing off as she padded closer to him, speaking once more. “Oh?” he asked, tilting his head to the side. A sly grin slid across his face, and he squared his shoulders, straightening up. “Что вы имеете в виду?” he asked. Of course, he was plucky; when it came to women, Rurik was generally not one to give in to nervousness.
