Ankyra Sound And isn't it easy

She watched his expression as he looked at the sea creatures, trying to decide for herself if he was familiar with this sort of prey or not. He investigated a couple of the things she had already seen, but he didn't make a move to grab at them. She would have been intrigued had he taken any chance at all with the sea urchin- and he came to look at the creature she had been investigating, which remained where it was, though she thought she saw it pull its claws tighter to itself when it realized it was being watching by not one, but two predators. 

He asked her what it was, and she got the answer to the question she'd been wondering. Perhaps Eadwulf hadn't lived along the shoreline before, as he had no name for the creature. Chacal, on the other hand, had a name for it- but words...Words were far too difficult. 

She felt her cheeks flush warm and she felt herself shut down a bit when she realized that this would likely be how the majority of her interactions with new wolves went. Her family knew about her aphasia, but strangers...Well, they would either be told by her relatives, or they would find out for themselves- and she judged herself harshly enough for it already, without needing to expose her weakness to others over and over. 

But then, a memory came to mind- and with it, an idea. She recalled the one time that the words had flowed, and in a regular order. She'd sung a song once, with Erzulie- and she had had no issue forming a complete sentence so long as that line was sung. She hummed softly- working her way through the introduction of the song, until she came to the line that had the word she needed. "Krab la va Mangé" She sang, as she finished the line. She repeated the tune, humming the first bit until she came around to the same section again, and in a singsong voice, still, reiterated: "Krab" Before she stopped. She wasn't sure she could simply speak the word- but in singing it...She hoped that she was at least able to communicate the word she wanted.
