She stepped forth from the depths of her den, rolling her broad shoulders as she pressed her way into the early morning sun. The chill of winter lingered in the air, but the promise of spring lingered just around the corner. Tiberii would inhale deeply, taking in the sharp scents of the snowy morning and flicking her ears forward ... listening.
Citrine eyes would blink, and the softness of a missile would touch her face as she realized all was quiet. And she would relax, stretching each of her limbs and breathing life into the muscles as she rolled the stiffness of sleep away. She rolled her tongue over her lips, lightly smacking them as she began to power up her brain for the day.
Hexx's presence did not break the silence, for the man was but a piece of the shadow itself.
But Tiberii would turn her head, eyeing him as he approached, his stance steadied by intent.
Part of her wondered if she should be concerned ... but she couldn't quite tell if this was his normal grumpy face or a grumpier-grumpy-face.
Oi, g'mornin, Hexx,she called to him, waving her tail and turning her body to meet him.
Everythin' alright?There was an edge to her voice, a sense of worry that passed through her like the hiss of steam.
