Friends. This, she could do. Ness was smiling without knowing it, the expression easy and fitting across her muzzle. The white wolf twitched her ears as both Sebastian and Aduin gave the Cliff Notes version of their backstories, and she was particularly impressed by the shy male's words— they had resolution behind them.

"I'm gonna head out Bast, Addy," she said, settling her gaze on each as she explored their new nicknames freely. "But stop by if you're ever up north. I stay on a mountain called Moonspear— and I'll come down when I can. If this is where you're gonna settle."
