Was he… scared of her? Selene read his body language on the fly, trying to think of all the things Creed had taught her. A foot lifted, like he was going to step away from her. Interesting. Curious. Very curious indeed. He was much larger than she was, he had nothing to be afraid of. All Selene would be able to do is run away from him, likely very fast. She was, as a matter of fact, very fast. Not that he knew that. The awkward was setting into her brain, and she was starting to have a hard time thinking around it. No matter.
”I wouldn’t be surprised, but I haven’t studied the climate of this continent in depth yet. It’s not so different from where I came from, though. Plenty of snow to go around in the winters.” Selene’s tone is pleasant, she liked the weather. Studying weather patterns, doing her exploring, learning everything the best she could. Those were the things the old man had liked best, that and the topography. He’d done well to give her all the knowledge and information her brain longed for, and she would do her best to honor it. Maybe it was overly sentimental of her, but the moonscorned didn’t care. Sentiment was good sometimes.
”Um, I was exploring the caves too, it’s okay,” oh jeeze, what was she supposed to say? ”You’re not intruding at all, don’t worry!” Tail wagging in earnest, Selene stumbled over her words. Social interactions were hard, and she was admittedly struggling a little bit with all of it. Her tone is light, at least she has that part down. ”Are you familiar with this area?” Uh… was that even the right question to ask? It was hard to be sure, but Selene was doing her best.
