Danny, being Shaman-born, had had Solarius at his side for as long as he could remember. Though there were those - like his mentor, the god Khasekhemwy - who were made a bit uncomfortable in the presence of the big cat, most understood the bond between fairy and familiar and were at least a bit comforted by that fact. The realization that not everyone would understand the connection, and may not be ready for the sight of a golden tabby tiger happily gnawing a bone in the castle gardens, was one that Danny made only as the young woman rounded the corner and tossed her books into the air with a mighty screech. Both boy and tiger paused, mouths full, to gape at her in mute surprise. Then, in unison, they both glanced over their shoulders as if looking for someone - or something - behind them that might have caused such an... explosive reaction. Then something, a language Danny only vaguely recognized as Latin, spilled from her mouth, and boy and tiger exchanged confused looks. But then, seeming to realize that they didn't understand, the woman switched to English and spoke again.
"Uh, it's... okay," Danny said, too polite not to accept what sounded like an apology. An apology for what, exactly, he wasn't sure, but still. The woman knelt down, rubbing a spot on her head, and Danny hopped to his feet. He rested the remnants of his meal on his bench and, after glaring at Sol for a moment (warning him not to eat it while he wasn't looking), hurried over to help her pick up her books. This time, when the woman apologized again, Danny smiled at her. "It's alright, we were just as surprised as you I think. I'm Danny, and this is Solarius." The tiger stood and stretched, powerful muscles rolling, before he trotted over to one of books that had been flung the farthest. He carefully picked it up between massive teeth and trotted over to Cassia, his expression expectant as he waited for her to accept it. |
