James
*He hummed a reply and went back to what he was doing before the fox came, the land around the house seemed lonelier than usual, the animals are dwindling and the house also are missing afew objects.*
Emily
*The fox went back to trying to clean her wound, gagged from all the blood, and eventually decided to simply wander the house to find some place comfortable. Every now and then, she could hear distant barking and it would cause her to freeze in place before the sound died down and allowed her to walk about once more. This time, she found herself following the Elf around, idly watching whatever it was he was doing.*"What do you be doing around here anyways? I hardly ever see you leave the den... And when you do, you never really do much outside of it."
James
"Mostly wake up, eat, check the animals, sell them if I'm short on money, check on the garden, eat again, then sleep, it isn't much by your standards but it's nice i suppose" *He replied* "Though i do plan on leaving this place eventually, contrary to what I've said before, i think you're right about me uh living in fear and my own self pity and not trying to be better! Though i think that's mostly my thoughts jumbling together late last night" *He muttered that last part to himself before continuing on* "Point is! I think.. Moving away from here and try to meet more people would be healthier than staying here for forever slowly wasting away into dust!"
Emily
*Her ears flicked in turn.*"So you're finally going back with your kind?"*The fox said, occasionally returning to clean her wound for a bit between comments.*"Finally coming to your senses I see."*She paused for a moment, looking back up at the Silnari before tilting her head back a bit.*"Where are you planning on going? It's not to those other elves in the forest is it? They got wolves now, you better not tell them where I'm hiding!"*She suddenly yipped at him as thoughts of the wolves finding her suddenly came to mind at the Elf's betrayal. For a brief moment, she even seemed scared.*
James
"Oh no I'm not gonna tell them you're here, I'll be too busy running probably but consider my lips sealed" *He gestures to make get his point across, he feels slightly bad for the injured fox but he knows he won't tell a soul about her* "As for going back with my kind, probably i don't exactly know where I'll be going but i do have enough supplies to last me a good long while till i find somewhere safe" *He shrugs* "And... Wait there's other elves around here? With wolves—"
Emily
"Yes! Well at least they sort of look like wolves, but a bit smaller and dumber looking. But they're definitely just as vicious as them!"*She said with a lack of any real certainty of what kind of canine was just chasing her down.*"Why would elves even have wolves!"*She spat.*"Trying to have them do their bidding because they can't protect their own prey? You guys waste so much time guarding your food before even killing it!"
James
*He shakes his head as a a feeling of familiarity at that description popped into his mind* "Well it just makes sense to us, like if you have two animals they can make more animals and if you take care of them enough you can eat them everyday without having to hunt because they make more of themselves."
Emily
*She stared at him for a long while as if to process what he just said before eventually speaking once more.*"You guys are sick."*She hissed at him. The fox made her way back to the living room and hesitantly climbed up on the chair before laying down with a tired sigh.*"Weird timing, deciding to travel in the middle of leafbare don't you think?"
James
*He shrugged off the hiss before replying* "Well it's not like I'm leaving right now even though i want to, I'll leave when the snow melts"
