I couldn't help but snort at Hollowpoint's joking retort. "Hmph. You'd grow tired of me quite quickly, I think. I'm only bearable in small doses." I said with a wink, a small giggle erupting from my maw. The best thing about our friendship is that I felt I could really be myself around him; I didn't feel like I could disappoint him even if I tried. I never felt more at home than when I was with him, except for maybe when I stood on top of the mountain and gazed down over all of Moladion. When I was with Hollowpoint, I could forget all the things that troubled me, for better or for worse. We were both childish and uninhibited, and though I had rejected it at first, I was now coming to see that Fate wasn't as random as I had originally thought.

When Hollow's eyes left me to scan the trees, I followed his gaze, slightly confused. I was about to ask him what was up until the scent of my sister hit me. My tail gave a few excited waves as Daenerys emerged from the trees. For a moment I forgot that my family had no idea of my bond with Hollowpoint, and I was simply excited to see my elder sister. The excitement, however, didn't last for long, as I remembered the fact that Hollow hadn't been... properly introduced yet.

Suddenly a feeling of intense nervousness came over me, and I gave Hollowpoint a slightly panicked glance as my sister came to stand next to me. "Hey, sis." I greeted warmly, despite my reservations I was still glad to see her. Deep down I was sure that I had nothing to worry about, but I also knew that my family was incredibly protective of me. I could be glad, though, that it was Dany who had come across us, and not Taliesin. I doubted that a pointed stare would have been all he would have done to get Hollowpoint to back off. I felt my face heat up below my fur at being caught with a boy-as innocuous as our relationship was- and I felt much like a pup being caught trying to sneak out of the den.

I gave my sister the most innocent glance I could muster as she looked down at me, but her reassuring mahogany eyes offered me little comfort. I could only hope that Hollowpoint wouldn't totally mess this up, and I tried to communicate the best I could as I pressed against my sisters side, with a narrowed stare and uncomfortable grimace. Perhaps I shouldn't have been so worried, but I couldn't help it. "Hollowpoint's a good friend." I said, though my voice sounded less than convincing. Dany had an imprint of her own, and I knew that it was useless to try and hide our bond, but I did it anyway.

I was still a kid, after all.
