Winter watched the blind male nervously, trying to figure out what he was thinking, how he'd decided her ability was. She found herself digging her claws into the dirt with anticipation as he walked to the tree and his aura covered where she'd frozen a few droplets of water. When he finally spoke she'd wound herself so tightly that she nearly jumped out of her fur. His first comment confused her, so she remained silent, waiting for him to say more. When he did her jaw literally dropped a few inches as a flush colored her pale face. She felt so happy that she might cry, but instead she padded closer, nosing the ice she'd made. A joy and a sense of pride welled up in her chest as he spoke so highly of what she'd done.
When his paw moved on top of her own she broke out in a huge bright smile, her very little glow shining more brightly to mirror how she felt. In her joy she looked at him. "Thank you Wopk...you are right. It's just...Nobody ever told me it was a good thing. Your the first to tell me it was great, and that feels wonderful...Thank you!" Her normally soft voice rose as she backed up into the tree she'd done the freezing on. In her excitement she shook it and knocked plenty of water off, causing her to yelp in shock. "Oops...sorry.." A giggle soon turned into a laugh as she shook the water off.
