In Character

The soft nicker of horses brought a smile to the she-wolf's face as she entered the stable like area. The stables thrieved with animals that could not be kept in dens down bellow and it was one of her favorite places since she returned home. Never once had the thought crossed her mind about spending time in the smelly stalls until Aldieb came along. The mare was clean and well fed now, and Anon made sure to brush her mane at least once a day. The soft pale pink and white nose of the femme touched her shoulder and Anon snickered, holding up a sugar cube to the beast. It had seemed that Aldieb had grown very fond of Anon, or was just happy to have sugar cubes daily at her command. She was told numerous times not to feed the mare to many or she would expect it. To late.

"Now, now girl. That's enough." She cooed to the mare and rubbed a rough hand the side of her cheek, the scar feeling more alive then ever.

She resented the Angela for that. For making her share blood, or the scar. A shudder washed over her body as she took her hand away from the mare and looked at it. She hadn't realized the glare, but apparently her mare did because she nosed her chin and snorted. A soft smile washed over her maw and she patted the mares cheek.

"I'm fine, just thinking." She said, as if the mare talked to her like anyone else.

Anon hadn't noticed but the soft creature had made her smile more then anyone had since she was a pup. She never let herself get this close to something. A wave of worry washed over her and she turned, pausing for a moment, before grabbing the brush firmly in her hand and going to work of grooming Aldieb. Something to take her mind off everything, thats what she needed. She couldn't help but be deep in thought with every stroke she made on the mare's mane. It was only until a nicker from the horse in the stable next to Aldieb's that startled her back to the present and she looked up, glancing over. It wasn't a loud nicker, more of just a "who are you?" sound. The blue roan mare looked less then displeased of her new stable mate and snorted. Anon made a sound with her cheeks a lot like a horse would if they were snorting and then blowing the air out of their nose heavily to get the other mares attention. She was sure she almost saw a glare appear in the beasts eyes and quickly went back to stroking the brush over Aldieb's mane.

"Have fun with that one Aldieb. She looks like a real friend in the making." Anon said with a giggle as Aldieb stamped her foot in protest of her comment.
