Moonspear This Is Just a Dream

Charon wasn't sure what sort of reply he had expected, but it certainly hadn't been this one. She started to speak about herbs and it felt like she just wouldn't stop, going on for ever and ever. He tried his hardest not to look bored, but it was growing harder and harder and her story had so many little details he was sure he'd forget right after.

He mentally noted himself never to ask another wolf about the uses of herbs again and said, "Geez, I didn't ask for your life story," when she finally stopped talking. Realising he might've come off a bit harsh, he added: "I guess I'll just stick to keeping well-informed wolves like yourself around rather than learn it all myself." His tone was friendlier then, and he wondered after speaking if he was getting soft. Without thinking he'd added the words, where when he was younger he might've just brashly insulted her some more. It made him feel strange and out of his comfort zone, but he quickly hid any such feelings away.
