the sterling outrider had been heading someplace else in rising sun valley; probably the lake, when a familiar howl rang through the area, requesting for her. scarlett.

crëyr's paws swiftly brought her to someplace near wapun meadow, the place where she'd met alastor, and there stood scarlett. the grayscale female approached her at a jog, and paused before her, a smile on her face as she was happy to see her friend. "hey, scarlett!"

her friend's features were down with noticeable unstableness. immediately she was concerned. had something happened at the glacier, like she'd mentioned weeks before? had the child-attacking female from her pack hurt the youngster even further or something? "you look kinda upset. what happened?"

the pale female listlessly thumped her tail, the prompt smile not reaching her eyes. when she flatly greeted her in return, the grayscale girl knew that something was wrong.

the moment the thought appeared in her mind scarlett burst into tears. quickly crëyr ran to her side, attempting to hoist her up from the floor and have her lean against her side before she spoke, informing her of how the duskfires had kicked her out of her home. her brow furrowed. "what the hell? why?" she couldn't imagine the reason why scarlett had been kicked out, really. she was kind, friendly, helpful. "well, they don't deserve you."

crëyr's brow furrowed slightly. "don't believe them, 'kay? you're pleasant, considerate, supportive, kind, and a really good friend. don't believe them. is the founder the same one who attacked the child? if it is, then why would you bother listening to them?"

the red-eyed female then continued to speak of how she'd took an injured youngster along with her on her way out, which was probably the child who had been attacked. then scarlett went ahead to mention kove, the male who had spoke of scarlett so fondly. a small smile graced her lips. "yes, i've met kove sometime ago. he's a good guy for you, scarl. if i can help in any way with that, i'm here."

scarlett said yes to the question crëyr had sent her way, and added a few more words on how nobody had stood up for her in duskfire glacier. "well, that was wasted time with them. you did the right thing, leaving."

following that her pale-furred friend queried her of her meeting with kove— and a question, which crëyr knew that she really meant to ask her if she approved of him. the sterling female smiled. "yes, i do. he spoke really sweetly of you, and i think you guys will be great together."

she paused and laughed lightheartedly once she spoke of girl talk asked about shadow. "yay, girl talk! and about that... well, we dunno. we aren't sure. both of us."

she smiled at her friend as she slowly began to take her words into consideration, then agree to her. when they spoke of kove, scarlett turned to her, crimson eyes sparkling, and began to gush about him. a perfect voice? at that, crëyr began to laugh. "good for you! well, you guys are like, star-crossed lovers. go for it!" it did, it did seem like that they both loved each other very very much, but who knew how it would turn out?

her red orbs gleamed with curiosity as she commented on what the grayscale girl had said about shadow. with a slightly smaller tone, she responded with, "well, yes, we are rather taken and content with each other, i guess, but... i'm not sure if it'll work out right now. and babies? come on!" she laughed again at that, at scarlett's cuteness. it was definitely what scarlett would think, and say.

crëyr grinned encouragingly at her friend before she once again, told her to spill. "it's not that i don't want to have babies, but... again, like i said, i dunno," she laughed again what is with all this uncontrollable laughter, "we might head in that direction in the future. but now that shadow's player is very sick i don't think it's gonna happen very soon lol"

she wasn't sure if shadow or paar would be comfortable with her spilling everything about their relations with the grayscale girl, even to a close friend of hers, so she simply rolled a slim silver shoulder and very briefly said, "he has an ex."

"hmm," the grayscale girl spoke as scarlett asked her about babies. "well, i dunno. if that ever happened, of course our pups could be friends! that would be adorable."

she saw scarlett's face fall when she mentioned shadow's ex-mate. to be honest she wasn't still sure if shadow was over her, but she understood if he wasn't. crëyr was sure that paar was his whole world, and she had clearly seen it in his eyes when she had left.

but paar was gone.

she shrugged again. "again, i'm not sure. she just... isn't here, i guess." wishing to brighten up the mood both for herself and scarlett, she jokingly poked at scarlett's cheek with her nose and perkily said, "so what are you gonna name your babies, scarl?"

the grayscale female returned her friend's enthusiastic grin with one of her own. if she even ever had pups, that is...

"thanks," she offered as scarlett wished her good luck with her relationship. "well, kove seems to love you very very much so, i'm sure we'll be seeing some kovelett babies in the near future." at that she began wiggling her nonexistent eyebrows in a playful manner.

then the red-eyed girl proceeded to ask her if she had ever did it, and so crëyr snorted and gave a quick "nah. not me. not yet. you could start discussing it with kove..."

the grayscale girl could only smile at her friend's child-like enthusiasm for the possibility that she was to be a mother. crëyr wished her all the luck.

at scarlett's endless questions about it, she laughed while saying, "well, i'm not sure if you can be bad at it. i think you can, but i'm not an expert, i guess. but i think it'll come naturally. you guys are for each other, you don't have to worry much!"

scarlett agreed to what she had previously said about it coming "naturally". well, if you were with the right guy, then probably it would. the sterling female laughed, at that.

the red-eyed female then proceeded to conclude the girl-talk with a goodbye and a thanks. crëyr beamed. "thank you! you are one too, scarlett. you're clearly my best girlfriend around here. see you soon!"

she gave her friend one last smile before turning to depart with a bounce in her stride, left with a good mood after seeing and talking to her. it was rare that she ever had these silly "bff talks", and she was glad for someone like scarlett.
