I am Orb. He felt horrible the moment she heard Bandit making fun of her missing leg. He wished he had the guts to tell him to shut up or leave her alone but he'd never been able to stand up to him, not even when Elowen was around. He was a coward. He had accepted that a long time ago. He thought the conversation was already lost as she tensed up, prepared to leave and his ears flattened to his skull in apology, knowing he deserved it if she did leave. But something must have clicked because she tilted her head and stayed instead. He blinked a few times, his brows furrowing in curiosity. She even smiled and gave him her name, Ana. Kyra gasped. "WOW, THAT'S EVEN SHORTER THAN MY NAME. NICE TO MEET CHA! Her high pitched voice trilled. Orb tried to give another polite smile to keep the peace but he could see that Ana was thoughtful. She must still be figuring out what to think of him. She looked at him a moment longer and he shifted his weight awkwardly in the silence before she asked about the others. One ear pricked forward in question. Their names? That was a first. And of couse now they all wanted to introduce themselves. "I'M KYRA, OR YOU CAN CALL ME PRINCESS!" "I'M DIESEL AND NO, YOU DON'T HAVE TO CALL HER PRINCESS." "YES, SHE DOES!" Kyra said in a whiny voice, her bottom lip already poked out. Diesel chuckled gently and rolled his eyes. "I'M M-M-MAGS." She stuttered in her soft flowery voice. "AND THEY SAVED THE BEST FOR LAST. IT'S A PLEASURE, MAMASITA." He even winked at her teasingly but thankfully she wouldn't see that. Orb's ears pulled back again, hoping he wouldn't run her off. The silence was deafening and he knew he needed to find something to talk about. He couldn't just jump right into asking her for herbs for his own issues. That wasn't the polite thing to do. "ASK HER WHERE SHE'S FROM....OR IF SHE HAS ANY FAVORITE PLACES TO GO IN MOLADIAN. FIND SOMETHING IN COMMON." "OH, ASK HER WHAT HER FAVORITE FOOD IS! OR IF SHE THINKS BUTTERFLIES ARE PRETTY!" Orb sighed, overwhelmed, and Diesel tried to push the others back to help him. He knew there wasn't really a way to embellish the words they chose to say, especially not with Bandit. At least he was being silent, mostly, for now. He finally looked at her after a deep breath. "UM....SO WHERE ARE YOU FROM?" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Confused? See my Info Page |
