*Juna would sit atop the sand of the coast, a grey blanket of clouds spanning over her as she stared blankly out at the waves. Water, dark and foreboding would rhythmically slosh its way up to her, just about missing her boots before it would be tugged back into the ocean once more. Juna wouldn't move away from it, wouldn't so much as flinch at the times when the water would occasionally nip at her shoes and tail before being stripped away from its prey once more. Seagulls cawed up in the sky, busying her Jackal who seemed to be entertaining himself by gradually chasing them down while her Airstrider made haste in following and easily passing him up.

Juna's ears remained up on her head, their playfulness a dull sound in her traitorous ears. There was an empty feeling within her, one replacing her other senses in her feeling as lost as any sailor would in water this vast. She had cried out her tears earlier, wandered the forest, probably even confused her two animal companions in the process. She was so sure that woman was a conniving wolf, so certain in the moment, and by the time she could get her head straight she had already chased away a potential friends for things she couldn't move on from.

The Canifor was at least glad her animals could distract themselves for the time being, not having much to distract herself with besides her troubles of never getting to apologize to the woman due to her own inability to get out of this stump she had gotten herself stuck in. She wish she hadn't done this to herself. She also wish she hadn't met certain people that she had on her travels that gotten her to this point. She wished she could return to that naivety. Juna would draw her knees close to her, resting her head atop them for the time being as she'd finally allow her eyes to close for a short while. She didn't need her eyes right now anyways, they betrayed her as much as her ears had.*

*The daily routine remains unbroken, as it had been since his leaving Salvainia. Checking his ships integrity, paying the fine for his boat's residence in the docs. Refilling supplies and chasing away critters... Then, his beach side stroll. One that had never meant much before, save for a way to keep him busy and patrol to keep the streets safe. That was up until a few nights ago, where he met some strange young woman who seemed to be camping on the beach.*

*These walks, that were meant to please the dog and nothing more, proving fruitful once more. His padded paws spreading on the warm beach sand. Muffled and quiet, at least as much as they can for an armored hulking figure.*

*Looking across the beach, shaded by the oppressive clouds, Grey would spot a peculiar sight. A dog- No, a jackal. Running, playing, chasing birds... Accompanied by a bird itself, an airstrider. The pair seemed familiar, and it of course struck him as he spots the Oriate-like woman close to the water. He tilts his head, deciding to approach. Watching the jackal and airstrider as he passes, calling to Juna as he comes in a comfortable range.*

"You'll get wet if you stay so close..."

*Juna's ears would turn in the direction Grey's voice was coming from, for a moment allowing her to envision the Grey wolf from her dream walking over to her before she'd finally open her eyes to notice the other Canifor out here. What was he doing out here? Her eyes wouldn't carry much joy from the sight of him, instead the simple flick of her tail being any sign of positivity from him being here.*"I figured it would clear my mind..."*She'd say, looking back out at the water.*"Or kill me trying..."

*Death was never something the Canifor would grow used to, however, she settled on the idea that most things were out to get her. Even nature itself. Maybe she was being a bit irrational, her gaze becoming a bit more apologetic as she would move her tail to allow Grey a spot to sit down next to her if he wanted to.*

"I'm sorry Grey..."*She'd say.*"I tried to take your advice to protect the ones I care about, but... I think I'm just driving people away... I think... I don't know..."*Juna would bite her tongue.*"I think at the rate I'm going at it may really just end up being me, Juniper and Jace... I just... Keep messing up somewhere, I just don't know what."
Maureen
*Grey's ears would flatten as Juna seemed to joke about her dying. The dog of course coming down beside her, still towering over the woman even as they sat. His larger than average frame seeming menacing, or even protective to her.*

*The wolf stares down at Juna silently, curiosity and sympathy plaguing his expression. She seemed worse off than when he left her... This poor girl seems to of been through a lot in her life.*

*His lips still, silent as he looks into the sea. The crashing waves and ocean breeze occupying his acute senses of sound and smell. The thoughts in his head rummaging around as he enjoyed the surroundings.*

"You worry to much... There will always be another. People come and go, can't force them to stay. You've got me, at least."
*The wolf said rather mindlessly for what he put together in his head. Shaking his head at his own remark, before glancing back down to Juna.*
"Tell me... What happened?"
Frances
"A stupid memory..."*She'd say in a tone that sounded like she was holding back pent up frustration. Her throat burned in effort of it and as the waves would come back up to meet them, she'd angrily splash at the water as if to ward off a pest before drawing her hand away.*

"I think I've done... Some horrible things before... I've... Participated in things... And I have been trying to forget..."*She'd begin to explain.*"There was a Tholian I met in the woods and... She seemed kind of nice... Then she... Brought up this name... And... I wasn't sure where exactly I remembered in from... Until..."*She paused for a while.*"I was once being paid to kidnap or kill these group of elves... They spoke about this god of theirs a lot... They seemed innocent and... I didn't want to kill them... But my ally at the time did... And I couldn't do anything so... I ran away... The Tholian mentioned the same one... I thought for a moment that... Maybe she was there to get their revenge or... Or I don't know... I just started panicking... I had shown her my camp, my companions, everything I-"*Her heart thudded in her chest in a mild panic. She knew the woman could still remember the place even after claiming to try to forget. Times like those she felt she had let her guard down so quickly and fell into a trap.*

"I thought she was them coming after me in knowing I associated with them... I even thought about attacking her, but I just walked off and... When I came back... She had left... Thinking she had disturbed me..."*Juna would bring a hand to her head.*"She had been helping me so much and now she's gone off to the one country I can never bring myself to go back to..."
