<em>Hel-lo.</em>Was the first thing that came to the Ranger's mind when he watched the cloaked female lower her hood, revealing the pointed ears of elvenkind.  He's always had an affinity for their race; the way their origins were so strongly tied in to nature appealed to him on a deeper level.  Fen's imagination flicked to the two of them sweaty, breathing heavily as they moved in concert.  The air thick with the scent of pine and morning dew.  Together they chased their quarry and basked in the thrill of the hunt, working together to bring down their prey.  Fen blinked and his attention was back to the tavern.  He felt a certain level of empathy for her kind, feeling a sort of kinship that he was as out of his element as them in this urban setting; but despite their natural aversion to the artificial terrain, they still managed to carve a living for themselves.<br/><br/>Sure, the idea was overly romanticized in his head, but he was not foolish enough to believe that all Elves wish to return to the natural world.  Furthermore, he didn't even dare relate his situation to theirs; to do so would demean their strife as slaves in modern society.  Fen knew it was a ridiculous mindset. As far as he knew, she didn't want anything to do with life outside of the urban setting.  Nonetheless, it was a fantasy that was genetically imprinted into his mind and he could no more overcome it than to push back an incoming tide.<br/><br/><em>"Excuse for Rilyth my part,"</em>Fenris' moment of daydreaming was distracted when Daniel addressed him,<em>"she never seeks harm no one so long they seek harm me. But consider her.....home world, the slight shows of violent acts or shows of dominance are common place for her kind. Aggression, predatorism, all are words which fit to her nature. It had taken me while train her to tone it down but sometimes she gets bit excited and so she may do things which become faux pas. I just hope she did not make you edgy or nervous with her little display."</em><br/><br/>"No need to apologize."  Fenris said with a casual flick of his wrist in a dismissing gesture.  "I am just so damned good that sometimes my skills get the better of me.  After suffering from it for all these years, I've come to terms with my condition.  And if there's one thing I can relate to..."  Fen turned his head to look towards Rilyth to shoot her a wink that was equal parts admiration, interest, and challenge.  "It's predatory nature."
