"I've been there before," Frey muttered quietly, more to herself than to Rubix. Looking down she traced a simple circle in the dirt, seeing as she was still outside of the building. "So can you... do stuff with air?" She felt silly for asking the question, but she'd always been curious.

[.::. Nemesis .::.]

Rubix smiled and nodded softly at her question. "Yeah.. I can control it. And I can leap pretty high too. That's about all I can do since I'm only part air." He looked down at his paws for a moment. He felt a stange liking toward this wolf.

[Natika]

Freya chuckled, but tried to conceal it with another shake of her fur. "That is actually pretty cool, I must admit.." she admitted. She was as bad at giving compliments as she was at taking them. Scuffing her paw on the floor once more, she looked up at him with eyes that seemed to carry an increasing amount of secrecy. Her long tail gave a soft wag.

[.::. Nemesis .::.]

"Thanks." Rubix looked over at her again, smiling. He'd never really been around other wolves much, so he really wasn't sure what to say.

[Natika]

"Um.... So.. What're you going to do now?" Her ears twitched all around as she asked the question, listening to see if he was with others. With a cool breeze shifting through her fur, she felt as if lying down on the grass was all she could ever desire of life. She finally sat, wrapping her irregularly long tail around her hind paws like a cat.

[.::. Nemesis .::.]

"That your way of trying to get rid of me?" he joked. Then he thought about it. "Not sure, I don't have anywhere to go. I guess I'm sort of a loner.." He sighed softly. Oh well, it was better than being in his fathers pack. He wouldn't have stayed there even if he was pure bred.

[Natika]

"Hmm... Why?" Freya's head tilted to the left, her ears more perked in Rubix's direction now. Taking a deep breath, she watched him.

[.::. Nemesis .::.]

"I dunno.. I just am. After my father kicked me out I just kinda wandered by myself." Rubix felt her watching him. He gazed down at his paws so he wouldn't look like he was staring at her. Yet, it was hard not to stare.

[Natika]

Seeing his gaze avoiding her own, she turned to look at the moon. Her breath came out as foggy swirls, ascending to the sky as she thought. "Do you... like.. wandering by yourself?" She'd never minded the thought of being alone, but seeing Rubix almost made her yearn for company.

[.::. Nemesis .::.]

"No... Not really. But it's probably for the best." He felt he was too much like his father to reaslly fit in anywhere, and he had killed before. Even if it was an accident, which it was, that didn't change anything.

[Natika]

The feeling of her heart drop made Freya almost mad at herself. She didn't even know this wolf and already she had emotions for him. "Oh.. I see. It's the same for me, I suppose." Memories came back to her of the night she had been banished. The blood staining her muzzle, the hate in her eyes, even the strength and vigor she felt in her paws. The thought sickened her, and she turned her head away.

[.::. Nemesis .::.]

Rubix watched her as she turned her head away. He almost asked why, but decided not to push her. She looked like she didn't want to talk about it. And he didn't blame her.

[Natika]

Composing herself, she turned back to face Rubix. What should I say? Her tail lashed across the ground as she contemplated what to do. "So... Tell me about yourself?" Not knowing what else to say, she almost smacked herself after speaking the question. What if he denied to answer, and walked away? She hadn't yet, and was just waiting for him to.

[.::. Nemesis .::.]

He thought about it. "There's really not much to tell... And you wouldn't find it all that interesting anyway." He shrugged.

[Natika]

"Well I am obviously interested, seeing as I asked you... but okay," she shrugged, pretending she didn't care. Yearning to know more about Rubix would get her nowhere.
