Fire eyes burned, watching the land around us as we sat talking. It was strange to think there was something about each of us that fate had decided to put together. I wondered what the main reason was. And the purpose of it all. I've heard those back home say that fated bonds were only meant for love, and that those who went against it were some of the worst people, but at the same time, what if you meet your fated, and they love another already. It's a no win situation. Part of me wondered if that was what was doomed to happen here, or if by some twist of fate, it'd be the way the gods meant it to be. I had never thought I'd find mine, not in a million years, but I couldn't help but wonder where I was going to go in life, or where this was going to take me.

Digging my feet into the ground that had been buried beneath the snow, my tail twitching, pushing the snow further away from my feet, curling my fluff of a tail around my feet. I missed the sun beating down on me every day, keeping me night and toasty. I feel like this place was so different from home, so unlike everything I've ever known, I don't know where to begin here. Where do I go from here? I had yet to go close to any of the packs, unsure if that's where I wanted my life to lead me. I know I want to have a family of my own when I'm older, but it makes me wonder how things will go from here on out.

The urge to get closer to him is a strange one I've never dealt with before. Maybe it was this fated bond, maybe it was the cold along with it, but something was drawing me to him and it wasn't something I knew how to understand. I had never sat down with anyone in my family and asked what feelings came along with a fated bond, and it made me super curious as to what I was feeling, and what it meant. I tried to ignore them as I heard him begin to speak. I shook my head slightly. "I'm not baulking, per say, I'm more unsure of what this means, now, and in the long run." I speak softly, my eyes searching his face before dropping down to look at my feet. I listened to his story about his grandparents, how when his grandmother had passed, how his grandfather was lost. I wondered if that was how the elders back home felt when their fated had passed.

I listened with my heart pounding in my chest, I wondered what he had wanted his life to go as. If he had plans made up or if he was like me, just going with the flow. "I tend to ramble as well. I'm more or less trying to process what we're supposed to do now. I know what the elders at home would have told me, but here...Things seem so much different, the idea of it seems more relaxed and at ease about this all. I'm just curious as to what your take on this is right now. Back home I'd be expected to go a certain way with a fated bond, but here....I don't know what I'm supposed to do." An unsure expression slides across my face, my fire eyes flicking up to look back at his face. I wondered if my words were too bold, too out there being blunt about wondering what to do. But I needed to know, I needed to see what this meant to him, so that I could think of what it meant to me.
