"Baby, we were born with fire & gold in our eyes"
She does not think that he would not know what fingers and toes are, but his moment of confusion is enough to make her want to smack her head against the nearest tree. A hand against her forehead would have been enough there, but here she had to be creative. How would one explain fingers and toes to someone that didn't know and then she had it! Her eyes lit up like a light bulb and her ears flicker forwards attentively. "Have ya been to the Jungle?" She says. There were monkeys there that she had seen, wondering with awe when they had grabbed and moved through the trees so easily. It had been amazing to her. So many things still were.
She laughs at his words. "Ah, well, it was so different. So new and amazing." She says, her body trembling with excitement as her hooves stomp slightly against the ground. She had always been an excitable and happy child and it did not seem as if it was going to change any time soon. No doubt her temper would be equally vibrant (her writer pities the first one to make her angry). The Irish in her blood would have her rallying, hot blooded lot.
"Here we survive, but it was different. There was a real danger there, not the safety that it's so easy to find here." Her voice lilts more as she speaks, the happiness practically bubbling out of her. But something in his voice changes and she can see the light dim in his eyes as he remembers something, not realizing she has really put her hoof in it this time. Her ears flicker in concern and her happiness changes into something else, worry for him. "Are ya alright?" She says after a moment, stretching her nose closer to him, even as her legs follow until her nose touches his shoulder. She pulls it back after that moment of contact and then they were talking about other things.
"Where did you come back from?" She is curious and it wars with her worry, clear in her ears as they flicker forwards and backwards, confused. "I prefer either, so long as my family is with me." She reveals her own current pain, while his is deeply rooted, hers is still fresh and she always has been a talker, one that doesn't seem to realize what should be personal and what others should know. "However, they are there. No doubt worrying what has become of me." She says with a sigh. It seems that they would both be melancholy before this conversation was over.

" Even in the dust we shine with fire & gold in our eyes."
