Chiyako

There were a few noticeable differences coming from Julia during the course of her taste test. Her new friend made strange little noises for one! It became more difficult for her to breathe, but there was something else too. Also her smell appeared to change. It became thicker, almost muskier. For some reason it even seemed to heat up her own body! That was weird. She could feel the woman squirming beneath her, even tensing somewhat. Perhaps she was ticklish here? Julia did respond with a hug! Well, sort of. One hand was at her side and the other was upon her squishy rump! But she didn't mind. Thankfully Julia did respond that it was nice! This prompted the wolf's tail to wag more excitedly behind her, even pulling her hips into a little wiggle! She even agreed with Nilaa's question! However her response was quite unexpected. Instead of a lick she found Julia's lips press against her own! The poor wolf tensed up for just a split second, both surprised and confused by the gesture, however she very quickly relaxed into it as it did feel quite pleasant. As more kisses trailed down her body she leaned her head back, giving the manticore ample space to do her work. Lips finally met with one of her small almost non-existent breasts. Now she understood why Julia squirmed the way she had. The sensitive flesh sent a jolt of bliss along her spine. Her tail stuck straight up, ears folded back against her head as a sharp breath caught within her throat! Red shot up her cheeks, eyes closing as her entire body seemed to lean into the woman's affectionate kiss. Julia would of course feel Nilaa's body tensing, heating up, and she might even detect a faintly sweet scent arising from the smaller girl. Clearly it was having a similar effect on her. "Julia good" mumbled Nilaa, unable to find better words to use at the moment. Her hands moved, settling upon the bed on either side of her. She didn't want to risk scratching her new friend. It was a good thing too as occasionally a more sensitive spot was hit, drawing out a little gasp and a slight gripping of her claws against the sheets!

It was a good thing that she understood them. Rinako's blue orbs shifted slightly. The woman appeared to be kind, ready and eager to assist the poor injured creature who noticed her. Her name was Raelynn. She looked nice. Thinking about it, Rinako couldn't remember anything about her. This had to be her first time seeing this one, right? She should remember something else if it were different. No, that was all she knew. Her attention focused once more upon the one who noticed her. The injured creature. It smelled quite pleasant. No. He smelled quite pleasant. Yes, she understood this now. Things were starting to fall into place now within her mind. This one was named Trish. They wished to hide. Hide from some animal. Perhaps they meant her? Yes, if they were running away from the howl then it meant this one was attempting to flee from her. It feared her. She didn't know whether that might be a good or bad thing at the moment. Should they back away? Such a question probably was not directed at her, right? No, it was directed at the one named Raelynn. Such a question probably would not be asked if they wished her harm. This visibly put her at ease, tail smoothing out somewhat while her ears perked up. They weren't after violence. Probably. Actually they appeared to be just as confused as she was in all this! Besides, if she scared them then that clearly meant she had more power here, right? No longer did Rinako keep herself huddled close to the ground. Instead she sat up, knees pressed to her chest while her hands remained planted against the ground for support. Such a position could have been considered immodest if Rinako had any idea of such concepts. But that wouldn't really matter much at this moment regardless. No, now was not the time to worry about such things. Now she needed to focus on ease tensions with these two, after all it was always easier to operate as a pack! Well, it felt like that was true anyhow!

As it turned out her new friend did taste pleasant! Well, at least this part of her did. Would other parts taste different? She would perhaps need to continue the little experiment. Thankfully she did not appear to mind the taste test! Laughter was a good sign. Clearly she wasn't uncomfortable with this. Seeking to test whether a person tasted differently in other spots, Nilaa's path slowly lowered as the wolf wiggled her way south. Her tongue continued its assault, lapping gently against the woman's throat, her shoulders, her collar bone, and finally to her chest. Would the squishy parts taste differently? Nilaa's tongue pressed a little harder, dragging firmly against one of the large orbs. That didn't appear to change much. But what about the other part? It was a different color. That clearly meant it might be a different taste! With tail wagging even harder in anticipation Nilaa sat up a bit, scooting herself just a little lower. Her eyes locked firmly upon one of Julia's nipples. Without much warning she leaned in, pressing the flat of her tongue against the areola. One drag was followed by another, and another, and then one final taste for good measure! As it turned out skin appeared to taste the same even if it looked a little different or felt a little softer. Oh well. At least she tried, right? Having finished her brief exploration Nilaa wiggled herself back up to eye level, arms relaxing against the bed on either side of her friend's head. With a content smile she dragged her tongue once across the manticore's lips. "Julia good!" she announced, only to freeze in place! She just had a thought! Or, rather, a question! "Nilaa good?" asked the wolf. Of course if she tasted herself she might not know, right? Did she taste good?! What was Nilaa taste?!? To her it was a little sweet, but then maybe that was just how a person tasted when they tasted themself!

Nilaa's ears perked up at the question. While not all of it was completely understood, she did understand the important bit: do I taste good? Of course the licking was initially a show of affection, but now she was just curious! Did Julia taste good? She sat up, eyes wandering across the woman's body. Well, her head and torso at least. Normally tasting meant eating. However eating Julia would mean just that: eating her! That would surely kill her! Nilaa wasn't allowed to do that! Plus she liked Julia! If she was dead then she wouldn't have Julia anymore. That would make her sad. Still, she did wonder what the woman tasted like. Probably like juicy meat. But that was only if she sunk her teeth in. A tiny hint of drool collected at the corners of her lips as she briefly pondered over the mind boggling puzzle set before her. How does one taste without eating? She could lick and actually focus on the taste. That would only give her a surface level taste, but then that would be okay right? As the answer to the woman's question finally clicked into Nilaa's head her tail started to gently wag back and forth. Licking her lips Nilaa leaned in close once more, this time against the woman's neck. She sniffed at it a few times in preparation, only to then drag her tongue firmly against Julia's skin! And then again! Long powerful laps of her tongue assaulted the poor manticore's throat as the wolf sought to taste her, hoping to answer her question! This is what she had asked for, wasn't it? And Nilaa wasn't misbehaving!

There was a subtle change in the air. Initially Nilaa didn't pick up on it, however once she'd snuggled in close to her new best friend it became fairly obvious. Well, the new scent did. The unusually warm heavy scent blanketed her senses. In turn it made her feel warmer and for whatever reason even more affectionate! This quickly became apparent as the soft nuzzling of the wolf's face against the manticore's breasts became a little firmer and just a little more focused. Not that Nilaa fully understood what it was, but she did know that it was enjoyable! Parts of the squishy orbs appeared to firm up. Of course this did catch the curious wolf's attention. Her cheek pressed against one of the woman's nipples, rubbing directly for a moment before she settled her gaze squarely upon it. Nilaa glanced down at her own chest. She also had something similar! A claw moved up, carefully prodding at her own breast. In response she shivered, face warming just a slight bit as her little nubs started to grow just a hint firmer. Why hadn't she noticed that before? A kiss was planted upon her forehead, snapping her away from her moment of self-exploration. She smiled up towards her friend, tail wagging behind her even as she became trapped by the manticore's. Wishing to show her own affection the little creature pulled herself up to face level. After a few moments of nuzzling her cheek against Julia's she sat up again, dragging her tongue across the woman's face a few times! "Nilaa like thut. Nilaa like Julia! Julia good."

((OOC: I certainly am!)) For a brief moment the wolf's eyes closed, smile widening as she was nuzzled. Such affections were probably one of Nilaa's favorite things, perhaps even close to eating! It was at least higher than sleeping. Sleeping was nice but she always ended up waking up hungry! And besides, she couldn't do other things while she slept! But it did feel good. Nilaa's body was pretty slim, petite even given her size. Her skin was quite pale and this certainly stood out more thanks to the darker hair and fur on her body. Both her feet and hands ended in beastial claws and the same sort of fur found on her tail, and this fur reached up to her knees and elbows. Her chest was pretty much flat with only the faintest hint of any growth and her areola were a soft pink, nearly blending into the pale skin around them. While much of her body might have appeared a bit underwhelming she did have some curves thanks to her slightly wider hips and a fair rump. There didn't appear to be any hair over her crotch either, leaving her mound completely smooth save of course for the tiny dip where her sex lay. As Julia settled into the bed and motioned Nilaa over she sat up, tail continuing to wag swiftly. However after a few moments she leaped right at the woman, planting her face against her new friend's particularly squishy chest! She found it quite soft and squishy and comfortable, and so she freely indulged in nuzzling against the poor manticore's bosom. It was most certainly nicer than her own chest! Of course she didn't have to worry about nuzzling her own chest either and so she really was content with what she had. After a good minute of snuggling up to get comfortable the little wildling relaxed, settling her chin between Julia's breasts to look up towards the girl. "Nilaa happy" she stated, tail calming down just a little bit behind her.

((OOC: Ahhhh! Sorry! I have been so busy I forgot to check to see if this was continued in another thread and forgot that it might not show up in notifications!)) Of course the food had settled the ravenous wolf just a little bit, and the comfortable closeness of her new naked friend had certainly helped matters as well! Thankfully the chilled air from their brief flight had helped to keep her awake. Well, that and her excitement for seeing her new friend's place! Even the concept of napping with Julia was keeping her excited enough not to become too drowsy! Upon their arrival she finally relaxed her grip, sliding down to her rump upon the floor. Nilaa took a brief moment to soak in her new surroundings. Bright, warm colors everywhere. A massive bed! Delicious animals to feast upon! Even some more of the drink they had tried! Already she'd started to move around, sniffing at various things, especially the booze bottles and the stuffed animals. Of course they didn't appear to move at all, and so Nilaa poked at one of them with a claw. There didn't even appear to be any meat in them! How could they not have any meat?! For a few moments Nilaa pondered upon this until she heard Julia's voice, prompting her to snap her attention back towards the woman. She sat up on the bed, tail and hips wiggling with glee! No longer was she actually tired. That was going to make sleeping a little difficult, but she didn't mind. It just meant more cuddling! "What do now?"

There was a strange feeling swelling within the wolf. Sadness? Sort of. Pity! Yes, pity. Pity for this poor injured creature. It was not like her and yet it was similar. Also it was entirely possible that this creature was also locked away within this strange place just as she had been! Wait, were they locked in here? On second thought she didn't even know if that was correct. Suddenly another creature emerged from one of the other doorways. Rinako froze up, not even allowing herself to breathe initially. Thankfully this new creature's focus was upon the other one. She had gone unnoticed. But it was only when she realized this that the wolf allowed herself to exhale, and very carefully at that! Somehow she was really good at remaining quiet. Perhaps this was something she was used to doing? Hunting? Yes. Hunting did seem very familiar to her. They spoke to each other and somehow Rinako could understand their words. Or perhaps that was normal. It was difficult to tell. In any case it appeared that the creature had indeed hurt itself thanks to some sort of object it carried. Perhaps a weapon of some sort? Weapons. Weapons hurt people. Yes, that was probably it. Also this apparently was not the sort of outfit that the creature typically wore. This prompted Rinako to look briefly down at her own clothes, but she ultimately decided that they did feel correct. Howl. They were speaking about her. That drew her attention back towards the two of them. For some reason that was not a normal sound for them. Clearly she could not have known these beings. Or perhaps they had simply forgotten that it was normal? No, the other thing made sense, after all they did look unusual. Was the sound a threat to them? Something to fear? Perhaps something they found soothing? Or maybe even amusing? No, no, one of them had fled from the noise. It had to be fear. Did they fear her people? One of them looked in her direction. On instinct Rinako froze again, halting even her breathing once more as her ears folded back lower against her head. This felt like the correct reaction. Remain still so her prey does not notice her. Yes. That was it. But then it dawned on her that she should be in another place while doing this, a place with plenty of vegitation. When that realization hit her the poor wolf's eyes widened, heart beat more quickly within her chest, and the fur on her tail stood up on end. And yet she did not move for the creature in front of her did not move. There was still a chance she had gone unnoticed, right? And besides, there were two different feelings swelling within her right now: either run away from this creature if it approached or leap and attack this creature if it approached! She knew not which path to take in this moment.

That's pretty much how I do it too! Just moment to moment.

Ah, I understand! No I'm totally cool with things getting more lewd! Sounds like a fun path to me! I'm just cool with it going either direction really.

I think that is a good place to transition to Julia's room, right? Also as an aside I just tend to go with whatever the character would go with. I'm totally cool if that results in a friendly nap or more! I think it could certainly go either way depending on what happens.

((OOC: I honestly just enjoy going with the flow, so I'm all cool for whatever direction this goes!)) The wolf's ears perked up. Another couple of sentences she fully understood! As she sat up her tail started to wag more quickly once again! On one hand she did want to find her own room. However on the other hand she was very curious as to what Julia's room might be like! Besides, if she knew where the woman's room was then she could always find her way back to it! "Julia roooom!" With an excited wiggle of her hips the little wildling slid out from the booth and under the table, only to reappear on the other side! She was bouncing slightly now, her energy back to full as she waited for her friend to exit the booth. Of course once she had Nilaa moved right back on over, clasping one of the woman's arms with both of her hands. Then she remembered that they might do the flying thing again, and so she instead hopped up to wrap her arms around her friend's shoulders, holding on tightly!

((OOC: I am okay with it ending any way!)) As arms curled around her petite frame Nilaa's smile grew even wider. She enjoyed embracing like this! It was comfortable and warm and just all around pleasant! Their shared nudity certainly made it better too as she didn't have to worry about scratchy clothing. Why didn't more people go naked like this? It was something to figure out another time. Julia loved naps, especially after eating! More importantly, she was inviting Nilaa to join her in one! The little wolf's head nodded excitedly, arms clinging just a bit tighter. Napping was certainly fine with her! And so already prepared for one she closed her eyes, snuggling right up as close as she could against her new friend's body. Her tail continued to wag but it calmed down fairly quickly. Wait was she going to nap here? Nilaa was certainly up for it!

Good. Julia is. You liked it. That was confusing. Nap. Nap means to sleep! Short time. She did like sleeping. That meant she probably liked napping too! The other words were also familiar enough to her that she could understand what her friend was saying. As a hand settled atop her head and started to pet her Nilaa's tail smacked repeatedly against both the table and the cushioned back of the booth! She leaned forward, nuzzling her face against the woman's chest while she was tended to. It was quite pleasant! So too was the woman's bosom! With arms curling around the manticore's waist Nilaa tilted her face up too smile between the large squishy orbs. "Nilaa do what Julia want do!" Oh wow that actually sounded correct! Her tail only slapped more fiercly against the furniture around her. Nilaa was learning! Maybe Julia was a teacher here?!

Nothing. No response. There was supposed to be a response. Why did she know that? No, that didn't matter right now. Right now she needed to find another. Others. A pack? Yes, that sounded right! A pack! Her pack! That felt familiar. Why did it feel familiar? Her right ear twitched. Something else was calling out. Or perhaps someone? But why didn't they howl back? Was that not how people got one another's attention? It couldn't just be her. Did it really matter though? If she heard another person she should find them. Perhaps they knew what was going on. Slowly she pushed herself up to her feet, wobbling a little bit. Why did this feel weird? She had felt more comfortable closer to the ground. A shiver ran along her spine as she took a careful step forward. She didn't like the feel of the ground. Cold. Hard. Unnaturally smooth. It all felt wrong. Something shifted behind her. She turned but noticed nothing. Again something moved and this time she turned her head. Something long and fluffy extended out behind her. A tail? A tail. Yes her tail. Actually she felt much more balanced with it out. It wagged a little from side to side and for the moment she stood still, watching it curiously. But then she remembered the voice. Wait. Her ear twitched again. Voices? This one was different! Were there multiple people? Was that a good thing? She didn't quite know, but she knew that she did not like being alone. And so carefully she made her way forward to the next room. Empty again. The little wolf moved to the center and closed her eyes, listening for more sounds. It was difficult to get a perfect direction in this place. Sounds seemed to bounce off the weird stone walls. But after some time she did notice that one of the directions was just a little louder. That was probably the right one, right? She made her way in that direction. Another empty room. She didn't stop this time, hurriedly stepping towards the next. They all looked so similiar. How could a person live in this place? The next one was also the same. And then the next one. Rinako hadn't even noticed that she'd picked up her pace, that she'd started to run. But that didn't matter. She just wanted to find someone else. Anyone else. She stopped, heart beating quickly within her chest. This room was different. There was something on the ground. Lowering herself closer to the ground she crept forward on all fours. That felt familiar for some reason. It felt right. But she didn't have time to dwell upon why that was. What were these strange objects doing here? It was something new and that was exciting. A hand slowly reached out, gently lifted one of the objects. It was strangely curved with a weird protrusion. Also it carried a smell. What was this smell? She sniffed a couple of times at it before lowering the object back onto the ground. It wasn't her smell, nor was it the same smell she detected everywhere else. But it also wasn't just here either. As she sniffed at the air Rinako noticed that it actually appeared to be in one other direction. Of course it was very faint in comparison, but she could still follow it. That meant it was fresh! Wait, why did she know that? It didn't matter. Rinako quickly crept her way in that direction, sniffing at the air repeatedly to make certain she was on the right track. She heard more noises. Movement of some sorts perhaps? Wait. Voices! Well, a voice! But that was better than nothing, and certainly better than the low humming given off all around her. She would take new and different even if it might be dangerous. As she started to round a corner she spotted a figure, prompting her to duck back out of sight. It was a person! Her heart started to pound within her chest. Fear? Why was she afraid? This was a person! Someone else! But for some reason that felt off and dangerous and scary. At the same time she also felt lonely. So very lonely. She didn't understand this rush of emotions, but she couldn't sit around figuring them out either. What if she lost sight of the person? Or lost its scent? Watching it was a good idea. She could figure out of it was dangerous, if there was a reason she feared it. Slowly she peeked out from around the corner, locking her gaze upon the creature. She didn't recognize it. It looked like she did, but it was also different. There was no tail that she could spot. Also its clothes were similar to her own, but also a little different. Why was it limping? Did that mean it was injured? Why was it injured? She had time to learn these things as long as she kept quiet and hidden. And so she began to stalk the other creature. Stalking. Yes. That was what it was called. Or was it hunting?

Nilaa had quite some time to watch her friend while she feasted. Why did she eat so slowly? She used little tools to pick up food, to cut it. It was a little strange to the wolf. Claws and teeth were both perfectly suited to such tasks! But then perhaps Julia knew something Nilaa did not, after all she clearly was more intelligent and Nilaa understood this quite clearly. Eventually Julia did finish her meal. When this happened Nilaa sat up, tail wagging quickly as she was excited to see what else they might do! Something soft was handed to her. Nilaa had started to bring it to her lips to devour the offered treat, only to stop when Julia showed her how to actually use it. It wasn't more food, as it turned out. Holding it delicately between her claws the wild girl gently patted it against her lips, copying the woman! Then she ate it! What a brilliant idea to use such an item to soak up loose juices! It was like a cleansing meal! This was perhaps the first time Nilaa fully understood every word spoken to her. "Nilaa like! Good! What dooo now?"

Yay! More people!

Luna had no more energy remaining. When her lover's climax arrived she could do little else but shudder and squeak as hot ropes of cum filled her core. But thankfully there wasn't much else for her to do. Clearly they were both wiped out from the experience! Of course she had been expecting this from herself, but she was surprised that she'd managed to last so long. Hopefully next time she could last even longer! The little bunny opened her eyes briefly only to shut them immediately. Everything was spinning. Instead she simply snuggled up close to her lover, nuzzling her soft cheek gently against the Human's chest. "I'm okay Mister Raeghan" she mumbled tiredly, a little smile plastered across her lips. He was so caring! She had definitely chosen the right person for her first time. A first of many, in fact! Now that she knew about this sort of thing she was already excited for her next romp! "How was I?" asked the bunny even as she started to drift off into slumber. There was of course the issue of the man's seed, but she had a potion ready for that. Taking it in the morning wouldn't affect the results. In fact it was going to be really good for what she assumed was going to be her aching loins thanks to its slightly regenerative nature! Plus like many of her drinks it was carrot flavored! Well, slightly carrot flavored. It had a lot of berries and greens too. She could also use another bath, but then she did have a spell for that too! In any case she didn't have long to ponder upon such things. The exhaustion and the warmth of her lover, both inside and out, proved too much for the little rabbit. Within a minute she'd passed out.

The manticore's words did briefly pass through Nilaa's mind. You are too. Nilaa. I am sure. Will have a good time together. She didn't fully get the message, but then she was also very distracted as the food was brought out. Like her friend Nilaa started to drool, eyes locked upon the large slab of meaty goodness. Everything else was placed in the background. A low grumble emerged from her belly. When the waitress departed Nilaa suddenly pulled the slab of meat to her mouth. Teeth sunk into the meal, each chomp removing another chunk. Meat, fat, and bone were all crunched and torn apart between her razor sharp teeth. Within half a minute Nilaa had finished devouring the food. It was a slightly messy affair, and so once she had finished she relaxed back within the booth, quietly licking at the juices that had been left behind. It hadn't been filling enough for Nilaa, but it would keep her sated for a few hours. Now she could better relax, red orbs locked onto her friend while she cleaned herself up. She was curious as to what they might do next. Would they get even more food? More drinks? Would they dance? Sleep?! Or perhaps something new! "Julia nice. Nilaa like! Nilaa thenk. Thank."

There came a pause following her question. Perhaps Julia wasn't used to sharing a bed? Not that Nilaa was either, but the concept appeared within her mind to be a very good one! Both of them probably slept naked. Both of them were soft. Both of them enjoyed sleep! Cuddling up with another person had to be better, right? It meant more warmth and the sort of affection they'd already been sharing, which she had certainly enjoyed. While she waited for an answer Nilaa's head tilted just a slight bit. Of course she was still sipping at her drink. A few droplets made it through, slipping along her cheek and dripping down onto her neck and chest, but she didn't seem to notice. As for the poor woman's attempts to decide if the wolf was in heat they were perhaps made a little more difficult by the drink. Yes Nilaa's cheeks were just a hint flustered, but that could have been due to the alcohol! And yes her tail wagged excitedly behind her, but then Nilaa had already been quite enthralled by her new friend. There were of course other places to check, and a close look would reveal that she appeared to be acting normally. But then one also had to remember that Nilaa was quite blunt when it came to things! Regardless, once the answer had been given Nilaa lowered the now emptied mug, nodding her head excitedly. Sure we can do! I can help you find your room! Easily understood and very much the answer she was hoping for. In celebration she raised the glass overhead, wiggling her body in a gleeful little dance! Then suddenly she paused, tail sticking straight up behind her while she sniffed at the air. Was the meat finished!? Or was that someone else's meal?

The wolf's gaze followed the woman's hands as they grasped around one of her own, head tilting while her grip was adjusted. Of course once she understood what was happening her tail started to wag. Now the drink was much better steadied within her claws! Once more her hips wiggled in a little dance as she hoped to test out the new grip. This time not a drop was spilled! Julia certainly was a very good teacher! Very good. Nilaa. You. Learning more words slowly. You like. Hunt. Can I see? Sleep. Sleep is good. I love sleep. Steadily her grasp over the language, at least so far as understanding it went, was improving. Speaking was going to be another challenge, but she was getting better at that too wasn't she? Nilaa's eye closed as her cheek was nuzzled, prompting the little wolf to smile and return the affection. Very carefully she brought her drink to her lips, sipping at the strangely delicious liquid. It seemed to warm her body, a feeling she found to be quite pleasant. A cold drink which warmed the belly? Perhaps there was more to the wheaty drink than she'd first realized! Oh right. She had been asked a question, hadn't she? "Nilaa shoo hoont. Shoo Julia. Nilaa sleep wooth Julia?"

Once more the lady returned to their table, only this time she wasn't holding picture boards. No, this time she held drinks! Instantly Nilaa sat up straight, waiting for her own to be set down before she leaned in close, sniffing at the liquid. It had a strange smell. But Julia did enjoy the stuff. She might as well try it, right? Very carefully the wolf wrapped both paws around the mug, eyes locked upon Julia to observe how she was supposed to drink it. She remembered the first time she had a drink. Nilaa had eaten the glass she was given, and while it was still delicious for her she had received a bit of a light scolding for it. Repeating that wasn't really on her to-do list. Besides, she could get her new friend into trouble, and she certainly didn't want that! Julia enjoyed this beer stuff. She also seemed to enjoy steak! Big steak! And other meats apparently! Nilaa's head nodded quickly in agreement, a hint of drool lingering at the edge of her lips. She could already smell the meaty goodness! Literally in fact! They were clearly preparing it now! But Nilaa could be patient for her sake. No, she'd already received a scolding before for attempting to eat what she wasn't supposed to. Some of the new words were foreign to her. Fun. Parties. Dance. Alcohol. She didn't understand what hang out was, or music but apparently it was something people listened for. Eating snacks were understood! Well, the eating part. She didn't know what a snack was, but if Julia enjoyed it then she probably would too. When the manticore wiggled her body in an imitation of dancing Nilaa started to do the same! It was a little awkward, like someone attempting belly dancing for the first time. Unfortunately she ended up spilling a bit of the beer too! Upon noticing this she stopped, leaning in to lick at the bits that had spilled onto her paws. It had a strange taste, like wheat, but there were other things too. It also seemed to warm her chest! That was kind of pleasant! "Nilaa like eat! Drink! Meat! Hooont! Looorn" replied the wolf, pausing as she had run out of things. What else did she like to do? "Sleeeep?" Oh! That one sounded right! But that was where she stopped, shoulders shrugging slightly. She really didn't know what else there was to do!

Thank you. She knew that one! Julia likes Nilaa. That one was pretty easy by now too, and also very good! I think. It sounded like thank. But then she said something about the two of them and something about good friends. Perhaps a little confusing, but Nilaa got the gist of the message: Julia also liked Nilaa and the two of them were good friends! Not that she understood what bad friends might be like, but it was good to know they were the good type. As her new friend returned her affections Nilaa let out a sigh of content, eyes shutting while she continued with her little nuzzles against the woman's body. Nilaa had the scent of the outdoors as that had been primarily where she'd been spending her time. There was also the lingering faint scent of strawberries thanks to the person who last bathed her. It had been a thankfully calm experience all around as they had distracted the wolf with food in the process. Of course being friends wasn't just about cuddling and eating, as much as Nilaa might enjoy such a thing. She did want to learn more about her friend. There were so many questions to ask! In turn Julia probably wanted to know more about her. Not that Nilaa had too many exciting things to reveal, but that was an important part of friendship and even Nilaa understood this. Unfortunately the language barrier was going to make this sort of thing difficult. The poor wolf's head tilted from left to right as she pondered upon the words. Her mouth moved, trying to silently figure out how to speak them. Eventually she paused her nuzzling to look up towards the manticore. "Woooot Julia. . .lieek? Doo? Eat? Drink?" It sounded pretty close! Once more her tail started to wag, swatting repeatedly against the cushions and the table behind her.

Apparently she had done something silly, as her friend had started to laugh at her. Probably. Nilaa didn't fully understand why that was. No. You. This. Shows. You. We. Want. Me? What did that have to do with anything? But she was right: Nilaa did want to be with her new friend! It was good to be with those who were so eager to buy one food. Besides, they both liked to be naked and they both shared a lot of similar features! Obviously this meant they were both a lot alike. That in turn obviously meant that they were supposed to be friends. As Nilaa scooted closer to Julia another person arrived. They took away the picture boards and spoke briefly with Julia, probably to ask what it is they desired. Nilaa didn't interrupt. In fact she kept pretty quiet as she did her best to behave. Once the woman had departed however she leaned into Julia's side, nuzzling against her shoulder and arm and chest. Both of her arms curled around her friend's waist, pulling her into a hug. It was important to show affection for those one cared about! And besides, she was so soft and warm and comfortable! Also squishy in certain areas, which was an added bonus! "Frend. Nilaa thenk."

Good! Right! Julia! Thinks. Smart. Nilaa didn't quite know what to make of that. Did Julia think she was smart? Could that be it? It didn't really matter too much. Before she could even grasp what might have been said Nilaa's head was pet! The little wolf's tail calmed down slightly, but she did lean into the woman's palm, nuzzling softly against it. Nilaa knew that they had arrived when she smelled the food cooking in the back. A slight bit of drool escaped from the corner of her lips. Her gaze shot about, staring at the other tables hungrily. But thankfully she maintained her grip upon Julia's arm, following her back to one of the booths. A menu was settled before her, and upon seeing the images she leaned down, lashing her tongue repeatedly against them. Could she taste the foods?! No. It just tasted like plastic. But then Julia mentioned food and steak, and instantly Nilaa's gaze snapped up to meet the woman's, head nodding repeatedly. "Food! Steak! Beer! Julia! Nilaa want!"
