Suki walked, more like stomped, through the tall grasses of a local grassland area. Her heart was filled with nothing but anger and envy. Her father, her brother, he sister Obi all had powers, which she also wished to have. Her mother and sister, Melasil , had beauty on their side. What did Suki have, nothing. She had no powers, nor did she think she held any beauty.
Sighing, Suki tracked on with a storm cloud over her head.

Eyulf lazed about in the meadow, just enjoying the warmth for once instead of running around. It had never been this warm before, or at least not since he hatched into the world. For some reason the warmth felt comforting, like it had always been his home.
Suddenly, he heard the hard footsteps of another namir. He turned and found that from a short distance off a female was approaching. He sat up and watched as the red-fured namir approached, looking about as angry as the tone of her fur would imply. His optimistic mind was at work. Maybe all she needed was a friend! Or perhaps a friendly ear to hear out her problems. He waved happily, saying, "Hello!"

Suki nearly jumped out of her skin at the sound of another's voice. Heart beating against her chest her eyes scanned the area. A male with splatter spotty patterns caught her eye.
'Even with the most random patterns her looks good.'
Suki glared as she stood in her spot.
"Hello..."

"Nice day out, isn't it?" asked Eyulf. Normally he would regress into his typical 'how are you' line, but judging from the female's obvious anger he felt that may incur further agitation. Not that that line was much safer, he noted.

Suki snorted as she turned her head away from the male.
"Depends on your definition of nice and how your day is going. It may be nice for you, but it is far from nice for me."
She didn't really mean to sound rude to the male, but the way her life was going she found no reason to really be nice.

Eyulf sighed internally, though he was expecting the agitation. It really sounded like something was truly upsetting her, and she was just using him to vent her frustration. Well that's what he thought, anyway. He said the only thing that came to mind to say without actually prying into her personal life. "I'm sorry it's not a nicer day for you?"

Suki just stared at the male with a look of annoyance and disbelief. Her mouth hung a bit. She didn't know if the male asked such a thing because he was slow or if he had nothing better to say. She would thing it is apparent her day wasn't going to swimmingly.
"No, no my day is not going that well at all. My week, my month, my year, MY LIFE isn't going that well at all!"

Eyulf really didn't know what to say to that. What could you say to someone who claimed that her life wasn't going well? He didn't know her, so he could hardly say that her life was fine. He gave a slight sigh, wishing he could help her out. If anything her talking to him was getting her even more worked up. Maybe he was just someone to vent her frustrations on. "So what is it that's preventing you from having a good life?"

Suki plopped her self on the ground with a loud "Hmph".
"My family. Everything about them is keeping me from having a good life. I envy them. Every single one of them. I am one of 6 kids. I have 3 borthers and 2 sisters. My father, brothers and one of my sisters have powers and are not afraid to show it off except one of my brothers. I don't know what is wrong with him but whatever. My mother, and other sister have beauty on their side. Me, well I have nothing. I have no powers and I'm not beautiful so I am just an outcast of sorts in my family, a black sheep if you will."

Eyulf was relieved that his prying into her life did not cause an explosion directed toward him. He listened with interest as she ranted on about her family, and when she was finally finished he responded, "Well, to start with you look fine. Granted I don't know your family so I can't compare you to them, but in my opinion you are pretty. Now as for the powers...if you had what would you do with them?"

"I don't know. I suppose it would help me survive in the wild or survive better at least and I could help others I guess."
Suki gave the wild dog spotted male a suspicious look as she hunched forward a bit.
"Are you joking around with me or do you really think I look pretty? If you are joking you can just say so I don't mind at all. I know what I look like so no need to hide it."

Eyulf blinked a bit. Why would he joke around with something like that? Well he supposed he could have lied to make her feel better, but he would never do something like that. He shook his head, "No, I wasn't joking. You are pretty. And even if you weren't, it's not the outside that counts, it's what's on the inside. Your personality is what really matters." He was perfectly aware of how corny and over-used that phrase is, yet it was true in his opinion.

Suki fidgeted in her place as she looked away. She had ranted to others a few, more than a few, times before, but no one ever responded like that.
"Well,..thank you. I guess you are right about that, but for all I have seen beauty does help out a lot at times, though I have seen beauty strike out smarts in some others..."

"It can help with some things, like finding a mate, but when it comes to things requiring skill it doesn't do anything." Eyulf thought for a moment, then said, "I think that when a namir believes that she is beautiful she might try to define herself with that beauty instead of the other talents she might have. For a namir to have confidence he or she needs to define themselves clearly and be proud of that definition. For instance, I'm a hyper wild dog. What about you? What aspect of your personality or interests defines you?"

Suki's ears dropped a bit as she looked around a bit nervous.
"..I don't really know. I'm envious of others and I always have been, but I guess that is what sort of drives me to find something I can be proud of. To find something I can say is mine."
