Those beautiful ruins..

Des raised his head in curiosity, studying the sculpture of what seemed to be a wolf, everything from the entrance to here riddled with holes and pits, things that truly showed the great age of them. He sat down and focused on the ways the marbling of the stone almost seemed to follow what could have been the natural way a wolf's fur fell over their sullen body.

In the days of their travel, Satsu had been studying the land closely. Each place seemed to be less put together than the last. Ruins littered everywhere. Just as ugly as it was beautiful.

Though, perhaps not everyone thought it ugly.

“You find it beautiful?” She asked from behind the stranger she'd found, watching the way they stared upon the stone.

A nosey little thing she was. So much for minding her own business.

Des' head shot back as he sprung to his feet, clearly "ready" for whatever was about to come over him.. That was, until he saw the female. Her voice seemed to split through the air, echoing throughout the entirety of the ruins, although, in reality, it was calm and "petite". 

"Huh- Oh.. Yes.. Quite so, I do" Des replied, almost seeming to talk a bit "backwards" as he eased up a bit, unpinning his ears as the clench in his jaw slowly released.

He was startled by her, but then seemed to relax when he faced her. Again, she was belittled by her size. It infuriated her, but she did her best to hide it.

When he spoke, he stuttered. Slow, her head cocked to the side. “I am sorry if I frightened you.”

Or maybe he wasnt afraid. Nervous, possibly — or this could be the way he spoke naturally.

She seemed to be hiding something.. An emotion maybe? He took note of it in his mind as he heard her speak. 

"Oh, don't be worried, talk a little weird sometimes I do, but that's alright, yes it is." He seemed to almost be studying her as he spoke, taking note of each color change in her fur, the way it swirled around cowlicks. "Admire them as well, do ya?" Still, he seemed to be calming down, the "backwards" way of talking slowly fading as his nerves partially melted away.

His tail flicked in accordance with his ear, just another thing that seemed to happen around him. She still seemed tense and he understood that, cautious at that. He wouldn't truly feel "calm" around her for a while and he embraced that. After all, all it takes is a spark for a stick of dynamite to go off.
