Blacktail Deer Plateau out of my mind

As he explained the meaning of his name, the girl canted her muzzle thoughtfully. "it suits you, I think. not that it hurt my eyes to look at you, or anything. the opposite, actually." Her brow furrowed, unsure of the sentence that she had just formed, and decided to move on rapidly. "My brother's called Sunny, too; I guess my mother had a theme going."  She had moved past any emotional reaction to her mother's name rather quickly; she supposed that had something to do with her mother up and leaving so early in her life. She didn't even remember the woman, honestly, except for a hint of a scent and a looming shadow. 

Dawn offered him a smile, glad at his faith in her.  "glory might take a while. i'll go for the path of being a little less hungry, for now." She smiled, giving a little shake of her shoulders, reminiscent of her puppy days when excitement had her quivering with joy. It was some other emotion that had this effect, but she couldn't put a name too it. His sudden word startled her out of her thoughts, and Dawn canted a lobe towards him. " usha. I like it" Her words were true, she liked the flow of the word on her tongue, the strangeness of it. "I've always thought it was pretty - well, ordinary."  She fumbled, not sure how to respond to the compliment.
