Had her secondary visitation been conducted a short time prior the reaction to such a blatant show of unnatural ability may have begun a more tumultuous response, uproar befitting that against the restricted reality they maintained. Time had a rather beneficial side effect of allowing change, personal growth conducted not on the basis of further understanding but more the necessity of adjustment. Numerous those who exhibited such talents, many bearing a rudimentary control over the raw state of the elements, another name to that list the healer.

Unnatural the frost that clung in dense shroud, the hasty clearing conducted during the early hours reduced to wasted effort as once more filled those meagre holes made in the slowly melting flakes, poor tidings of what awaited the arrival winter waited for ever patiently. Rare had grown his wandering beyond enclosed den, minimal comfort the warmth but better than wading through that which near buried small stature, unknown the cause of his stunted growth. No issue would such present had not the waning sickness brought with it boredom, restless the tap of paws burdened with untapped energy. Idiocy the idea of departing but one he took to, forth venturing without second thought.

Her voice arose in lilting melody, query softened edges sharpened beneath annoyance, indeed unbefitting this place, though it may have been for life as a whole over her own presence alone. Mentioned of Medusa what drew Foam closer, suppressed as best as possible his ceaseless shivering as he looked to her, unabashed the open curiosity in lingering stare. Others bore odd additions, accustomed had he grown to them, different this for brow was adorned with secondary eyes that seemed to perceive as did the original.

Words failed and, instead, a paw damp rose and lightly tapped at his own forehead. Slight the tilt to head once this action was completed, ignored her own questioning for he knew not where the hybrid lingered, her presence duly noted as missing. Another may answer it, for now he merely blinked up at Rosemary, expectant in an answer to the extra eyes.

To speak aloud the name of the devil was to evoke it. Yet, as small a triviality such was, unnecessary even this where Rhine was concerned.

Light the steps that allowed him traversal of the snow layered incline, the sharp noise each produced enough to divert attention, back ears swivelling. No further action was performed, known the identity of who approached upon the basis of prior experience. Slight the manner back arced into the light touch, the brush of feathered plume chased, vision finally shifting to address other. It seemed he too lacked crucial information pertaining to the exact cause of visitation, rather limited that revealed.

Aside briefly placed the baseless ponderance at the sudden call, forth ringing at a volume that distorted voice he had grown familiar with, breaking without warning. "Rhi bad," gentle the tone employed, words poorly chosen for his meaning was not conveyed, worry seeping through. "Bad snow, make feel icky." Had been there further to his statement the chance for such passed, held tongue as call seemed successful in beckoning forth sought individual. Light the smile that curled the corners of his Louth, mimicked her silent action, though from beneath him did paws slip, caught before chin may make contact.

Grown embarrassed over the little mishap close did Foam draw himself, paws pressing into the tip of his tail, rubbing along the short strands. Halted this movement with the sudden intrusion of laughter, furrowed brows softening as the realisation struck, any positive response quickly replaced by annoyance, pout taking hold. "No sick. For Medusa, me fine." While his own illness seemed minor, and was within comparison to that which plagued Rhine, self inflicted as it partially was, and it was rather well known rejection came easy.
