*Scott chuckles and nods, looking back over at the airstrider, going over what she had told him in his head. He would hate for something like that to happen to Luna, though she probably would attack anyone who approached her if Scott wasn't there. She's been by his side since he found her. Their bond and relationship is stronger than anything Scott has ever known. Scott gets pulled from his thoughts as he feels the presence of the bird-like creature behind him. He grins a little as the strider tries balancing the book on his head, staying as still as he can, not moving a muscle. He chuckles when Juna starts to, shaking his head as the creature takes the book from his head. He focuses on what Juna was telling him about what she had found. 'Nature magic. Sounds fun.' Scott thinks this to himself, listening to what she was saying.* **"That's usually what happens for me. I can't remember the name of something, or I just don't remember something, until I see it again. Then it just clicks and its like 'Oh yeah. That's what it is.'"** *He smiles at her, looking at the book.*

*Juna shifts through the pages of the book, trying to find any name that seemed familiar to her only to look deflated halfway through.*"I don't think I remember any of these spells..."*She murmured. Part of her could remember a time when she used spells to help protect herself in combat, though she doesn't even know where to begin here. Resting her head in her hand, she was beginning to think that Nature Magic wasn't all she'd hope, only for a spell to catch her eye. Nature Tongue. She turned the book back around to face him, asking:*"What about this spell... I...Don't remember ever using it but... I've heard of people that had these abilities to talk to animals... Do you... Think it would be possible for me to learn it...?"*She asked him as if needing his insight for it. Juna remembered the crow woman from the forests who also had the skill to, even hearing from a friend that some had the gift, though she never fully understood it. There was a time when she thought her bird talk, even a horse as well. But surely it was just part of her own delusions. Yet here it is, a spell right before her eyes. Could she to come to understand how to speak with her own companions?*
Bridget
SC! *He watches as she flips through the pages of the book to find anything that may be familiar to her. Scott sat there, not much help, because he didn't know how he could help. While he waits, he holds his hand out to Juna's canine in a friendly gesture, like you're supposed to do with dogs before petting them. He was waiting for the wolf to make any movement or thought towards his hand when Juna seemed to recognize something from the book. Scott pulls his hand back and turns his head back towards the book to look at the spell that she had found. He didn't recognize the name, but she described something that he's been able to do nearly his whole life.* **"It is familiar to me, yeah. I can talk to animals at certain times. I'm still trying to gain control of it, as I've been able to for years, yet I don't have complete control. So, technically, yeah I believe that you can learn it. With a lot of determination and dedication, I'm sure anyone could learn it. Maybe."** *He chuckles and shrugs, looking at the animals.* **"Though sometimes I wish I could understand them. Sometimes it's better not to know what other animals go through or have been through."** *He watches his husky, laying with Jace silently, breathing evenly. She was relaxed it seemed.*

"You can do it too?"*She questioned, a flash of surprise crossing her gaze. Did everyone here have that ability? Juna was about to ask it aloud, but she quickly caught herself and decided to focus on his words instead. 'With enough determination and dedication anyone could learn it.' Surely she had that as well. However, as he mentioned it being better not knowing what the animals went through, she slowly began sliding the book away from him.*"So... Do you think I shouldn't learn it...?"*She asked, as if retracting her initial idea of trying to figure out the spell. Maybe she didn't need to hear her animals talk to her, or maybe the doubt was clouding her judgement again. What if her animals didn't even want to talk to her? Would it have been pointless to try so hard in learning only to know that her animals didn't care? Surely her animals would love to communicate with her. That wasn't just wishful thinking, right?*
