Umay nods her head in acknowledgement to his answer. Interesting, but humans were so judgmental. She didn't need to know that he was considered as a freak to believe this.

"Yes... Illrose." Her eyes follow the male as he switches position, she had little more to say to that, but she spoke the dragon's name with fondness in her voice. "I can tell you're dear to her." An easy observation. "I hardly see you with many others apart from the usual." She doesn't find it necessary to list the ones she usually catches Jack with, he knows who his allies are. "You're a reserved person?" Remembering that he's not truly 'deer', she refers to him as person rather than creature.

She was patient when it came to waiting for some kind of answer. After all, she had a lot of needless time on her hands. There was no rush.
"I understand. I can relate to that.. don't like many, not many like me. Actually, I probably frighten off more company than I attract." A shrug follows on after her words. "But I care little for the opinions of others. If they hate me, so be it. If they fear me, that's their problem. Perhaps they're in the right mind to feel that way." Although, despite her violent reputation, she wasn't evil. Far from it. Heavily misunderstood, just like most of her family. Or 'the pack', as others had grouped them.

"I stick with the same because they're dear to me, they're my family. We trust each other, we can relate, we accept our loved ones for who or what they are. And let's not forget what I am - whether that's a lion or dogcowthing, I'm a predator in a prey-filled forest who's known for starting shit. Either I'm feared or hated, so I don't usually bother interfering with others. No point."

She takes a quick glance at her surroundings, then continues to facing the other again. "Just curious." She returns the grin with a brief smile. Umay wasn't entirely black and white - neither grudging or forgiving; it all depended on her mood, the person, the situation, and the crime. There was never a grudge against the white stag in the first place, at least not that she could remember, which means it must not have been important to her. If anything, she usually disliked ending up in conflict with Jack.

She never intended on wedging herself onto his bad side.

Guh, I gotta go for about an hour but I'll type up a reply as soon as I get back if you like. <3 really enjoying the roleplay, haven't had many chances to do so for a while. <:

ILOVETHISBIOHELLO.

/ flee

hio3o3o

Dog:
Thank youu. <3

Jack:
It's alright, I'm gonna have to type my reply up after college though, ran out of time again. /punts self

((is fine xD I don't mind it ^^))



The white shifted his weight again, stretched hi scarred leg a little more. The former tension seemed to slowly fade from his muscles again. He had managed to keep his mind busy, leading it away from unwanted thoughts about 'family'.
"No risk no fun, eh?" he smirked, let out another chuckle, tilted his head slightly.
"Bothered? Eh... what should I bothered by? Is not the first curious...eeeh... cat crossing my way... yes?" he started to grin again. It was obvious he didn't catch the point of her question. Reactions such as tension about certain topics where just too normal by now as that he would actually notice them on himself.

ermahgerd those comics /so ded 8'D

((Mac... where r ur fuggin edgey brackets? ))



"Heh like that way of thinking, yes?" he snickered. Indeed in the past, when he had been trapped in here with no possibility to get 'home' again, he had started the one or other game as well... either out of boredom or out of frustration and desperation.
Times had changed, though... slightly.

Her next words caused him to turn his head towards her again, casting a suspicious look at her.
"Changed? .... heh... how can you say that... talk for the first time, yes?" eyes behind the shaded glasses narrowed slightly again. Once again it was obvious, he didn't catch what she was refferin to...


((Theeeeere they r.))

Umay doesn't respond to Jack's first statement this time, there was nothing for her to add.
The Demoness, especially when first arriving in the forest, harboured incredibly bad habits of violence. Fortunately for others, perhaps even herself, she's toned down a lot ever since then with the help of certain individuals. She didn't always like this though, as she often felt restrained. Or as she's seen it before - tied to a leash. But it was for the best if she was going to be spending the rest of her life trapped here.

Unless of course she discovered an escape, but the chances of that happening were slim. Umay knew that. She gave up hope a long time ago.

"When someone's been grinning the entirety of our conversation and then that suddenly drops, I do notice." There's an innocent shrug. Perhaps she was over-analyzing things, maybe she made herself look like she.. stared too much. Oh well.
"But nevermind, I just wondered."

Her brows furrow slightly. Obviously it was him.
"Well.. yes, Jack. You."
I mean, isn't that why they call him 'Smiling' Jack?
Despite the humorless tone in the white's voice, she can't help but not take his question seriously.

During the beginning of their conversation, she felt comfortable and welcomed in the male's company.
Now - not so much. He didn't need to say much to cause her to feel off.
An ear perks as she turns to face the white one once again. She thinks for a moment, not entirely sure what Jack could be referring to this time.
"What do you mean..?"

She couldn't understand where his confusion was coming from, but they didn't seem to be getting anywhere so she didn't continue to push further. Umay had indeed noticed the scars, even before this conversation, but she didn't question them. Because of how unusual the sight was, she didn't mention them in case it brought up one of those 'topics' he doesn't like to talk about.

Despite Jack avoiding eye contact with the lioness, she remained looking towards his face as the male spoke; silent as she listened. She didn't need that much of an explanation to clear up her misunderstanding on his question, but it worked.
"... Of course I know." She knew one in particular full of sensitive topics, even herself was one of them. "I do too." Her gaze seems to harden briefly, "And I'm assuming I brought up one of yours." There's another shrug, she looks away, and doesn't say more. As curious as she was, she didn't want to press deeply into his life; it was none of her business. If he wanted to tell her, then sure, but they weren't friends, her lack of trust was probably mutual, and so she couldn't imagine him doing so.

Eventually a glance was made to her again. The grin returned to his face. "Guessed so..." he chuckled, before he changed his weight once again, but this time it seemed a move for finding a new comfortable pose... the tension faded.
He had another, longer look at her, debating with himself if he should reveal what topic he spoke about. He decided against it. After all, he shared nothing more with the female than the same, close friend... or sister... in her case.
"Yes..." he said "Eh... happens a lot, though... got used to it." he snickered, before he fell silent again.



((i have to admit, i slowly run out of topics for talking |D but i think this is a good first introduction for them....))

Starr:
The demoness remains mostly looking away from the ebony wolf as they lie together. Umay assumes that he's angry at her, or that maybe he thinks she was the one to start the fight this time. It was usually the case when it came to the lioness.

She's not sure how to answer Kody's question. There had been a lot of fights lately that didn't always involve the same foes.

She gives a small shrug, releasing a heavy sigh. "I've been in a fight with more than one."

JackStrauss:
His grin causes one of her own to form, though it was small and only brief. She wasn't overly concerned in the first place, but she was relieved to know that her words didn't unsettle Jack to the point of him feeling put off. It'd be a shame to regain her position in being on negative terms.

Although she doesn't reply with speech, she does respond with a single nod to acknowledge his words. She sits in silence.

Hahaa it's fine, I did too. But I agree, it was a nice introduction, glad the chance came for them to talk. <3

emslee007:
Haha, I know, and it's fine. She just took it that way since they're not exactly on friendly terms and he was running up behind her so she took it as a threat. I couldn't tell if he attacked or not though as it happened so quickly, it was all kind of a blur. I don't blame him for reacting like that though at all muaha, I probably would have too. (x
But nah, there's no need to apologize <3 I had fun, hope she wasn't bothersome to you.

<33

yes i enjoyed it too ... maybe other chances will appear again in the future ^^

It irritated the wolf that it was an unneeded attack, and that Illrose was also involved. Quite frankly he didn't really care that the stag had attacked Haakon, but the fact that the male had done nothing wrong was slightly irritating.

The canine lowered his head onto the Demoness' back, being sure not to lean too heavy on any of her wounds. He hoped that she'd be able to get the chance to heal fully this time.
"Point the fucker out to me if we happen to walk past him."

Track.

You're welcome. <3
She looks like a really interesting character...
Except for the changing reaction. xD

Well, that's Umay for you haha.
Thanks again anyway. <:

Party:
<3

Aw, it's been a while since Umay's seen Idelle so she thought she'd pay her a visit.
