Kira quietly made her way towards the distant voices and the
crackling of leaves and twigs. Her paw maneuvered over and around
anything that may make a large sound to get her spotted. She eyed
the two tailless creatures with her bright eyes, curiosity getting
the best of her as they spoke. Rune chuffed loudly making the fur
on the back of Kira's neck stand up as she flailed her arms a bit
before wrapping them around the muzzle of her tail in order to
silence it.
Keegan chuckled lightly and held up his notebook for the male to
see. "Research, basically you watch something and see how it lives,
write down what you see. Stuff like that. It's how people find out
more about things they don't understand." He informed.
(( *really wants to make another character*
*already has two characters*
;v; ))
Luc stood up straight as she heard something. She held a finger to
her lips, and quietly 'sushed'. She glanced around, trying not to
look like she'd noticed anything, while she peered around for the
noise's cause.
Kira quietly hushed Rune who continued to attempt to make noises,
despite the girls objection. It finally wiggled out of her grasp
and made a loud snarling sort of noise towards the humans. Kira
squeaked involuntarily when the tail viciously attempted to pull
the girl out of her place and towards the two. She grabbed ahold of
the tree she was hiding behind as Rune continued to snarl and snap
at Luc and Erin viciously.
Luc stumbled backwards, barely managing to keep herself from
falling flat on her butt. "Watch out-" she said quickly, slowly
moving away from the viciously snapping teeth. "What the hell are
these things-" she murmured, grabbing a stick she hoped she
could defend herself with.
Kira growled at her own tail, grabbing at it angrily and holding
it's jaws shut. In the process she let go of the tree and was now
standing on her knees with her arms wrapped tightly around the jaws
of her tail.
"I'm sorry." She murmured. "Don't mind it, it's rude and kinda
hungry." Her voice was small and timid towards these new and odd
creatures.
Luc held her stick up warily, studying the other creature
carefully. "They're intelligent enough for conversation- and
manners too, apparently." She murmured, relaxing a bit. This one
didn't seem nearly as hostile as the other ones. "You- what are
you?" She asked, raising her normally quiet voice. "Do you have a
name?"
(( Take your time :> I'm debating whether or not to look for a
picture of draw one for your Spoopy RP -v- ))
Kira's eyes went wide when the girl addressed her. Her aqua eyes
shot down to her white hands, not certain about whether she should
speak or not. "My... My name is Kira..." She stated, trailing off
at the end as she had decided not to offer much else up.
Luc tried to give the other a comforting smile as she crouched
down, placing her stick down and holding up her hands. "Nice to
meet you, Kira." She said, forcibly softening her tone. "Would you
mind me asking you some questions, Kira?" She asked, stiLL holding
her hands in clear view. "It's okay to refuse, if you don't want
to."
Kira maneuvered her body around a little bit so she was sitting on
her bum but her tail was between her legs and still grasped firmly
in her arms. "You can ask but there's no promises that I'll
answer." She muttered childishly, her eyes downcast once again.
Luc nodded. "Mmhm. It's not very good to force answers." She
murmured. "Firstly, I would like to ask- what are you?" She
couldn't keep her curiosity out of her tone, and she cleared her
voice. "That is, if you have a species name."
(When ur power n internet goes out while u eat spaghetti )
Kira glanced around for several moments,her bright eyes finally
settled on the boy not too far away. She suddenly shrugged. "I
dunno." She stated. "I never really thought about it." She muttered
and finally released her tail who had begun to purr. It slid limply
to the ground, it's tongue lolling out happily.
Luc nodded. "That's understandable. Are there, more- similar to
you? A lot of you?" She asked, watching the tail happily. "And your
tail seems, independent of your own thought, correct?" She said,
peering closer. "It's kinda cute, when it's not trying to bite
me..."
Kira squint down at her tail. "It's kinda ruse it what it is." She
grumbled and played with her striped fur. "I know there are more
out there, I just... Don't like them..." She murmured halfheartedly
and plucked a solitary grey hair from her tail making Rune yip in
irritation before once again allowing its tail to loll out of its
jaw.
Luc nodded. "Social skills aren't needed to survive, after all. I
get pretty bugged by my own people too." She murmured seriously.
"But, do you get lonely?.." she asked cautiously, watching for the
other's reaction.
Kira's mouth opened as if to speak but slowly closed. As her lips
formed a slight frown, Rune hauled itself up in order to nuzzle the
girls cheek. "Yeah, sometimes." She murmured and gently pat Rune.
"But others don't really like me either." She chuckled slightly,
attempting to lighten the mood with a different attitude.
Luc tilted her head. "Why not?" She asked quietly. It probably
wasn't the best question she could've asked, but..
She sat down as well, letting out a huff. "Geeze- I'm way behind on
leg-day-" she muttered, trying to joke around.
