The scenery was beautiful-- at least it should have been. The water was lovely and there were trees and what could have been plants growing in abundance... but they were bare. Brown and gray covered the land and there was little to look at besides the water. She chose to focus on that, following Floki carefully.

"I've seen very few," she replies, studying the falls with interest. Her white gaze falls to the land around them, staring at the brown before glancing back to Floki. "You think anyone's been here before? It doesn't smell like many wolves pass through," she comments, her nose gliding over the dirt covered ground. Maybe the scent is gone-- taken by the locusts along with the plants. She doesn't know.

The girl follows his lead, taking gulps from the clean water herself. It was refreshing-- lifting her own spirits as well. She looks to her partner, her head tilting as he asks if they want to cross the river. "Well-- that's the only way to move forward," she says, a little uneasy. She disliked crossing rivers, she was small and thin and was always afraid the waters would pull her under. Perhaps with Floki here it will feel less scary, but she is still not fully convinced everything will be fine. She licked the remaining water from her muzzle, staring across. Delaying the process slightly, she asks. "What do you think is out there?"

"Hm," was all Aria says before following him to the river. Floki goes straight into the water, turning and splashing her. The pale princess flinches, stepping back and sticking out a tongue. "Hey!" she exclaims, her tail wagging as she falls into a play bow. The man stands and calls to her, so she raises and steps daintily into the water.

It isn't cold, but certainly isn't warm. She gives Floki a crude look, her nose crinkling and her ears flattening before her expression loosens back up and she follows him into the water, shouldering him playfully. "I wouldn't call it fine," she mutters teasingly in response.

The girl stuck her tongue out at him briefly, then looked into the water. "Yeah," she replies simply, dipping her nose into the cold liquid. "Never in a river though, only in the ocean..." she tells him, her white head tilting to the side as she watches him curiously. She had not seen the bright pink fish as she was more focused on the temperature of the water, but after he mentions fishing she looks to the bottom curiously. A handful more flit by, and her waterlogged tail mimics his in the water, wagging to the best of it's ability. "How different is it?" she asks, a smile now on her face.

Floki had been unsuccessful, but the young alpha watched with interest as he tried. She was used to fishing in the waves, but the fish moved faster than she'd ever seen. They were brighter though-- a lovely pink color-- so they were easier to see. As her partner missed, she gave a gentle shrug and a nudge to the shoulder. 

The pale girl stood still in the water, staring through it at the bottom. There was a brief period where nothing swam by, scarred off by Floki's previous attempt, so she waited patiently for more to come. Eventually they did, and she forced her head under, snapping at the creatures quickly. Unfortunately, she was unsuccessful as well, catching nothing but a faceful of icy water. "Damn it," she muttered under her breath, water dripping from her white face.

She watches the other as he moves to try again. This time, he's altered his form a little-- it seems anyway. Floki lunges for another, this time proving more successful. He raises his head with a slippery fish in her jaws, and Aria lets out a loud yip of excitement. Her pale gaze turns to the water, droplets falling from her muzzle and mixing into the rushing water. Another group of fish swim by, and she attacks once again. Nothing but water enters her mouth, and she spits it out when she raises her head back up. She looks to her friend with a frown, tail lashing behind her angrily. "I think you cheated," she finally says, sticking her nose up.

Her nose scrunched up, her tongue grazing over it gently. "I'm not taking your food," she tells him stubbornly. Her head dipped back towards the water-- Floki had indeed scared off the fish-- to wait for more to swim by. She waits patiently for more to come, almost afraid that they won't. Soon enough however, the pink bodies begins to flicker by, and she takes another lunge for a creature. This time, her teeth make contact, but with sand and mud at the bottom of the water. She'd overshot it this time-- by a lot-- and her mouth and nose now tasted absolutely horrendous. She came up coughing and spitting into the water, letting out an angry growl. 

"That was not a fish," she muttered loudly, her tail stiff with disgust behind her.

Water fell from her face, and she licked her muzzle in an attempt to remove the gritty sand from her tongue. It didn't really work, so she lapped at the river water as Floki spoke. Her tail flicks behind her, sending some water to the side. "Fine," she mutters, but is truthfully extremely thankful. 

She straightens up, moving towards Floki and out onto dry land. She waits for him to finish shaking out his fur before she moves beside him and shakes out her own. She smirks at him, damp tail wagging. "Sounds good," she says.
