Blackfoot Forest ≡Shadow Dancing

The tumultuous cries of the night had drowned out a new sound that came to light. The lamentations of another soul echoing through the forest halls. It wasn't his business. 

Though, as the sorrowing did not draw to an end, Collision rose again with a huff and slowly took off in the direction of the young man. 

And much to his surprise the cries were coming from what he would call a child. Though older he still had the familiar silhouette of one that had not yet maturity. Collision was no threat, but the other would likely not know this.

With slowed movements he drew near and when he had arrived, only in distance enough to be heard and test the waters, he found himself sitting. A non-threatening position. Ears tilted back in questioning, and he observed that the boy was not well. These were cries of pain, but he had a feeling it ran deeper than the skin. 

"You, uh, you seem upset?" Social cues weren't exactly his area of expertise and while he found himself a bit dumbstruck at his chosen words there was no reigning them back and he chose to simply wait.
