Firefly Glen Sayin' "who are you and where are you from?"

The way in which his ears fell back, laying themselves flat against his crown, made her feel guilty. She had not intended to make him feel bad, or even as if an apology was necessary, she’d simply been surprised by the suddenness of his touch. Her own ears soon mimicked his whilst the corners of her lips were tugged downwards, leaving behind a frown. There it remained even after his answer was given, though a glimmer of shock passed through her gaze. “It’s fine,” she rushed out, reaching towards him with her muzzle. Something drove her to touch him, to offer whatever comfort she might be able to, but the contact was never made. Kaori kept to herself, slender muzzle pointed upwards towards the male, almost as if she truly intended to run it through his fur; this she could not actually bring herself to do, held back by an unseen force.

A step towards her was taken, but the distance lost was never replaced. The girl, however uncertain of the ordeal that she was, remained still. “I forgive you,” the raven spoke with ease, her words genuine. Kaori knew that, no matter his actions, she had—as well as wanted—to forgive him. Tryp had not harmed her, nor had he done anything with the intent to put her in distress. The touch, though unexpected, had not been entirely unwelcome. With a slow shake of her head, she rid her lips of that pesky frown and smiled at him instead, saying, “I cannot be angry at you for that.” It would be an anger fueled by naught, and an anger that she wished never to possess.

In an attempt to prove that there were no hard feelings left behind, she lifted her muzzle towards him and gently pressed her nose to his chin. It was not your average boop, her touch having lingered too long for that to be the case, but it was her version. A combination of his gesture and the way in which her mother showed her trust in others, resulting in a display that meant the same as both. When she pulled away, her eyes never left him, interested to see his response.
