The wolf moves closer and the seaspear feels herself stiffen on instinct. Curiously, she follows the other's gaze to the waves below. It is somewhat calming to know that despite everything, the sea will never leave her.
The gentle voice of the other brings her back.
"Your eyes must be exceptionally good if you can see my bones," she snorts half-heartedly. The obvious flattery doesn't go unnoticed by the seawolf. She welcomes the distraction, though it all comes crashing down with the stranger's next question.
Tears threaten to spill again, and she dips her head, voice dampened. "I... I'm sorry to be a downer, it's just - my family. I've never been away from them before and I.. I just miss them. A lot." She expects relief, but it never comes, chest remaining tight.
