The stranger began to greet her, but soon interrupted himself as he lost his balance in the shifting sand. Startled, Nasreen jumped back when he went crashing into the sea, letting out a slight gasp of concern as the rogue wave rolled in over him. However, he soon got to his feet appearing mostly unharmed, and the girl couldn’t help but suppress a small giggle at the frond of seaweed strung rather comically between his ears. “Are you all right?” she offered, moving forward. He reassured her as he made a joke, and then Nasreen laughed freely, eyes crinkling in merriment. Not everyone could laugh at themselves, but for someone who was often as clumsy on land as this stranger, she appreciated his self-deprecating sense of humor. “It is,” she agreed, smiling. When he introduced himself as Kelso, she nodded good-naturedly and returned with her own name. “I’m Nasreen,” she replied, Th’orquian accent coloring her speech slightly as she pronounced her name. “A pleasure to meet you, Kelso.” He asked if the rains had kept her grounded, but as the skies over the Throat have been clear as of late, she can only shrug vaguely, unsure of the weather he referred to. What interested her more is Kelso’s mention of whales. He used the word while looking out over the sea, and a little apprehensively Nasreen followed his gaze. Was it good, that the whales weren’t here today? Not having grown up by the ocean, she was unfamiliar with the word. She assumed that they must be some sort of sea creature, but there was no telling if they were friendly, like the silver minnows who darted around their hooves, or if they were predators, like wolves of the deep. Perplexed, the girl turned towards her new acquaintance. “This might be silly,” Nasreen began, “but…what are whales? Are they dangerous?” she added in a rush, eyeing the waves nervously. horse:Colourize-Stock.deviantart.com || bg: Dark-Wolfs-Stock.deviantart.com || wings: Chocomix-Stock.deviantart.com & Chunga-Stock.deviantart.com || image: impassioned-dreams.deviantart.com || table by wanda |
