surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life

So it's decided. Decided that this is the strangest conversation she's had with anyone. Not that she's found herself in many deep conversations before, if ever.

She starts, all the words, the information blowing through his mind and into the wind from his mouth. She laughs again, tangible. Well that wasn't what she meant at all. "No, no, not feel like touch." She insists, amusement in her warm, gold-lined eyes. "Feel, like here.." She butts her warm velvet nose into his chest, the place where his heart would be. Surely he had a heart now didn't he?

"Ain't you ever been happy? Or sad? Or, maybe..takin' a likin' to someone?" She pestered now perhaps, unknowing how good at sharing he was. She'd never gotten more than a few words out of him before, so she was intent on keeping this going. Maybe he was just trying to humor her today, maybe he had a wild hair up his butt. Whatever the case, it was welcome, and she for some reason stood close to his chest far longer than necessary. Just standing, smelling his musky scent, listening. Not for his heart or his breath, but something else that she had only recently taken notice of.

Finally stepping back, she comments on his next statement. "Selfish? I disagree. To give my life for my children, well, I'd give them anything that meant their survival. Anything for them to have the opportunity to live." She blinks, flicking her tail at the bugs that already creep up on her backside. She considers swatting at them, but they too have feelings and emotions- however minuscule.

amen.
