Ankyra Sound all by myself

Eljay wanted to ask about 'mommies', plural, but he didn't get the chance what with Bobbin continuing to talk. He just nodded a few times, listening, and that was when the Heda showed up. It looked like Bobbin was about as startled as Eljay, although for mostly different reasons. Eljay remained frozen while Bobbin watched the Heda, until he eventually, distractedly mentioned his 'nomi' was there.

"What's, uhm... What's a nomi..?" he asked, but then he wondered out loud, "Oh, uh, is that the same as a mommy?" He missed mommy so much... But he needed to be strong and press on. Maybe some day he could return, but right now he felt he'd never been further away from that moment and from joining Drageda. "I'm not sure I'm allowed to talk to you, uhm..." He glanced in the distance, but she seemed not to move closer yet. Eljay just hoped admitting this wouldn't chase Bobbin away from him, because he wanted to socialise with the Drageda wolves and it seemed winning over the pups might be his best bet at this point.
