Silvertip Mountain Bones withered thin

With a nudge, the sensation was painful. It felt as though he had touched her bones themselves, and she whined softly at his touch. Coiling herself up a little tighter to protect herself from any more oncoming unpleasant sensations. Apparently not. She giggled softly, obviously not taking the whole situation as seriously as she should have. It wasn't as if death hadn't crossed her mind, more as though she had given up on fearing its reach and was soon welcoming its docile embrace. To await the grim reaper to come and guide her to the after life rather than run from him as far and fast as she could. 

He left and for a moment she was struck with grief, although she was weak and not too willing to talk to many individuals due to the lack of energy or enthusiasm to host. Still, she didn't want to be alone either - if death was to come, it would be soothing to have someone here t'ill the end. 

Just as thoughts rolled in her head over and over, faster than she could keep up with them - she heard him come back, and before seeing what he had with him, her tail bounced. Meekly, but there was movement to show how pleased she was with his return. All motion stopped however with the thump of a limp body hitting her head, she blinked; frightened at first, but that turned fast to a confusion. What on earth did he do?

Senses filled with a smell she hadn't sensed in a long, long time. Prey. And it was right there. Pushing herself up to sit, shoulders poking out as she rose, spine easily seen with a rolled back barely able to keep herself up while hips winged out from below. She turned her gaze to him. Will you join me? 

It was second nature to want to share a meal, especially one that was gifted. Despite his answer, she was quick to dig in - dirtying her alabaster muzzle in deep crimson. Although she was shy with Ezekiel to dirty herself when eating in front of him, that thought didn't cross the beauty this time as her belly roared for food. There was no time to sit here thinking about how she would look to others. With death just waiting for her to breath her final breath, it was time to be a little wild. 

Thank you.  She sighed, her belly still ached but it was a different pain. One of too much food - it wasn't accustomed to being full in a long long time. Since being banished from home, a loner's life proved hunger filled on its own without the help of the famine. I'm sorry this is how we first meet, I'm Reiko - and you? I'll be certain to remember this kind gesture.

It would take time before she gained weight again, but at least this would give her some strength to hunt again tomorrow and get better chances at success than today.
