Ankyra Sound you gotta be your own 3am

no worries!<3

so intent her focus is on mallaidh that for a split second she sees her in the corner of her eye and twists, her expression warming. only it isn't furi, it's a woman who bears no resemblance to her beyond the darkened head/light scruff combo (only, of course, mallaidh's is silver and the rest of her is dark and this woman is strangely stark -- a distinctive appearance that rings a bell for some reason, though she can't place it).

her expression closes again, not harsh, merely neutral. nothing about the stranger suggests a threat to her (yet, at least). dimly she recognizes her as one of the scents mixed in the sound, though what that means right now she doesn't stress about. instead she barks, "hei," in greeting, straightening her posture slightly. "i was looking for someone--she's not here, though. are you staying here?" 

given she never met caiaphas, nor does she remember the description given by nomi so many months ago, the woman's presence does not perturb her. for now, at least.
