She explained that she would hunt here, but mostly came just to pass the time... which made Haunter wonder if there wasn't enough to do in the Vale for her to remain there. He might've commented, but then he remembered his constant and needless trips up to the coast and how he would be gone for several days in these stints. He could not judge Xi'nuata based on her trips—at least she kept closer to home than he tended to do.
Her choice of a resting place was a ridge comfortably big enough for both large wolves, and she reclined onto her to overlook what he assumed to be one of her more favored vantage points. She certainly seemed comfortable enough here, and Haunter didn't hesitate long before sitting near her, leaving enough space that if she suddenly turn violent, he would have a much-needed second to retaliate. Though somehow he thought that if she were going to be homicidal, she would've earnestly displayed the symptoms by now; and he would've afforded her the same courtesy. Despite his name, Haunter didn't actually have a sneaky personality.
He watched her, teeth incessantly digging into her paws at an itch or otherwise. In her distraction, his eyes traveled the long, sloping curve of her arched neck and firm spine. Her fur of gold, tan and red, curled and moved, disturbed here and there by the breeze coming down from the mountain. Despite the immediate impression of burliness that she gave, he now realized that she was unmistakably feminine—a woman of the mountains. He had realized this in watching her strong, meticulous steps up the jagged path, but he was only just now materializing the thought.
He was looking at the side of her face when she had finished with her paw, but cast his eyes out over the plains. He had chosen earlier not to respond to her words, and the distraction of studying her had only put the thoughts of hunting farther from his mind. Haunter didn't notice now that she was doing exactly what he'd been doing seconds ago, but he swung his muzzle towards her, eyes resting on her face, not quite her separately colored eyes. "Do you have a family in the Vale?"
