Welcome to Gaia! ::

Snow was still on the ground and Rosetta felt extra cozy in her hat, her ears tucked neatly underneath it. Not that she needed the extra warmth it was providing her body, being a Tundra. Her tails were already so thick with fur, she could just about hide her entire body in them if she curled herself into a ball. But she hadn't slept like that since she was a kit. It always felt like something a scared child would do. Like hiding your head under your blanket when you imagined a monster in the corner of your room. There wasn't much nowadays that made Rosetta scared or even uneasy.

Smoothing her paws over the fluff around her neck, she puffed it up and let it fall back to her chest with a little bounce. It was like an extra soft scarf. Maybe she should get it trimmed down if she was to live in the town, now. The Frost family lived in the cold, in the snows, where she could keep her fur at its naturally long length. Down here, the snows would melt and summer would soon start, causing her to overheat if she didn't do something about all her extra fur.

For now, it was still cold and she was comfortable. She'd grabbed a quick hot drink from a stall and sat down on a bench to watch the Kitsu walking around the market. It was so strange to be around so many at once, of so many different types. It made her feel a bit overwhelmed. In a little while, once she'd finished her drink, she'd go back to her temporary hotel room and enjoy some solitude. If she was going to apply herself as a schoolteacher, she'd need to get used to crowds of Kitsu sooner or later.

Rosetta sat blowing on her hot drink as the cold wind caressed her fur gently. It wasn't a very strong wind. Even a Kirin with their thinner tails would have been fine in it. At least she thought so. Having such thick fur all over her body, it was obviously difficult for Rosetta to relate to the other breeds when it came to temperature. Unless those breeds were related to the Frosts or that family of Kirin just as deep in the snowy lands. Such strange families. What Earthborn and Kirin were this comfortable up in the snows, where, even if the sun was shining down warmly on you, it was still bitterly cold.

She supposed one could say the same for her. What Tundra would choose to live where it wasn't always so cold, but actually got rather hot during the summer? It wouldn't be the first time she debated if she should trim off most of her heavier fur. But staying up in the cold wasn't an option anymore. She needed other work. And besides. It'd be nice to interact with other kinds of Kitsu. Maybe she could find a place for herself in this world.

As she sat sipping and blowing on her drink, a few couples passed her by. She gave them a short look before resuming in her scanning of the area around her. They were off in their own world. It'd be rude for her to stare at them while they were enjoying each other's company. Her blue eyes flicked back to the left, catching sight of a lone Kitsu who seemed to be breathing harder than the others. The area was flat ground, so unless they had been out jogging, there was nothing to cause shortness of breath out here. It was likely they had been jogging. Maybe trying to keep warm.

Accepting that as what it was, Rosetta's eyes roamed away. Upon their next sweep back in that direction, she saw the Kitsu was now leaning against a pole, still breathing hard. So not a jogger. Putting down her hot drink on the bench, she got up and quickly hurried over to them, offering her paw for a bit of strength if they needed it.

"Do you need some assistence?"
