Broken Antler Fen Cihiro

Pearl couldn't help but grin as Val kept the act going, putting a lighter spin on what was going on around them. Her tail happily beat the ground, and she went down into a play bow at her conversational queue. "Nahhhhh, we wouldn't eeeverr let thaaatt haaappen," she said, the sentance dripping with sarcasm, with an eye roll tossed in to enhance it. 

She watched him immediately switch tones to a serious tone, but seeing a grown wolf shimmy over to her on his back threatened to cause a grin. Pearl knew to anticipate a joke from him, but you never really know what to expect from others during hard times. Observant as ever, she watched him build the suspense and lead her to guess that he was giving permission to eat him. Possibly. 

Apparently not at all. As Aduin would have been her last guess, she bust out laughing, but promptly regained false seriousness. "And I suppose..." she mimicked, not quite as unexpected now, but she had her own humor, "If it's the last possible resort..." looking dramatically away, sounding dead serious, sighing like it was the hardest choice she had ever made, "I can offer you the privilage...of..." Turning her head back, she looked dead into Val's upside-down eyes.

"The location of the magic moose."
