Totoka River Screaming into the pillow

all welcome but please let @Aniu reply first!

The two fell into an easy relationship, they understood each other. Aniu didn't push her to reveal anything about her condition nor did she treat her condescendingly. The disfigured female was considerate, she made sure to tap Silence before speaking to hold the deaf girl's attention and she spoke clearly so that Silence could read her lips.

At first Aniu seemed to think she had some obligation to take care of Silence but soon realized that the deaf girl could take care of herself. After that it became an equal care for the other. Silence walked on Aniu's right side, making it easier for the two to travel without constant fear of not being able to  detect threat.

The river was crystalline, so much so that it appeared to reflect the azure sky above their heads. The puffy clouds floated by above and below, the two females being reflected as well. Silence grinned at her reflection, making a silly face as she padded alongside Aniu. Turning to her companion, she checked to see what the other thought of this place.
