 Wasted, paralyzed
I need ten thousand layers of disguise
Built to save
What's left that has already worn away
Inside this vacant, made-up, plastic life
Only your heart survived
One last cryGolden orbs peered at the cloudy sky. Overcast and lonely, covering all the blue that might have been there once. Thick swirls that gave an onimous feeling of rain... or perhaps a storm was building up. Kamail's body was hunched forward slightly, his shoulders higher than his neck and his position almost as if he was trying to sink into himself. His tail was curled tightly around his feet, ears perked high on his head.
No longer did he look like a walking skeleton, he'd fleshed out slightly. But it still looked healthier than before, not that he'd ever look fully healthy. His gaze had lost some of the confusion and the sense of loss, but they did not take on any glints of light. They were just dull now, showed nothing.
He breathed through his nostrils, a cloud of vapor quickly darting away from his form, if it was poisonous to the touch. He was still hanging around the area he knew Ashe to be... though he wasn't sure why. She was comforting. He thought anyone might be comforting at this point.

 Promises and wishes all mean nothing
When it's me that I'm speaking to
Wanting something
Won't mean I will see it through.*Ashe's icy blue eyes softly narrowed as she gazed upon Kamail. He had been getting better through out the past few weeks, and his once thin form now held some meat to it. He looked a lot healthier then before. This was a good thing she supposed, knowing that soon he would be off again. Apart of her felt hurt, but her other half knew that once he was able to go out and be on his own again he would. Ashe had done all she could by now. Her time was almost up and soon she would be out of his life. It seemed alright within the back of her mind, she didn’t want to have him around anyway, right? Her tail slowly batted from side to side as she padded in a circle following her cast shadow. Ashe hadn’t noticed the sky today, but she never really spent anything looking at it. She was always off in another place, following the unknown or unseen. With a soft sigh the female wolf stopped and gazed around dully. Her eyes settled upon him one more, before she quickly pushed them off of his form and onto a near by tree. She would have to get ready for when he left. She would have to get use to being alone again.*

He wondered suddenly if Ashe knew how to fish. His lust for meat and blood had died a few days ago and he was back to wanting 'easier' food. As in, food that didn't make him want to retch it all up after forcing it down. Kam's nose twitched as a fat drop of rain hit it, and his ears flattened. Drip, drip, dra-op, drip... More droplets started to shatter the earth's calm, wetting the lands. It was becoming a steady rain. This was perfect weather to fish in.
Kamali slowly rose, tearing his gaze from the mysterious skies above and began to head through the woods. His lanky form moved with a sense of grace he'd stollen back from his younger days, days with and before Noke. A grace he'd lost when he'd lost his family. But something had brought it back, hadn't it?
His golden orbs landed on the female not too far from him, and he moved slowly toward her. "Alright?" He asked, simple and not trying to pry. She'd seemed more... nervous to him lately.

“I’m fine.”
*She answered with a nod.*
“You?”
*As she asked her eyes shifted from his and with a soft grin she nudged him with her forehead and joked.*
“Looks like your getting fat again.”
*It was a good thing to, being thin and weak wouldn’t get him anywhere but into trouble. Pulling herself from him again she slowly started to circle him. At first it seemed as she though she was doing it just because, but after a few moments she made it clear that she was just playing with him. Her tail slowly swayed from side to side as she pranced around him and laughed.*
“Why are you still here anyway? Apart o me thought you would have gotten tired of me by now and left.”

Kam shrugged his boney shoulders. "I suppose I am doing alright." The two most common answers ever. Alright and Fine. What if he really did tell Ashe how he was feeling, go on and on about it? Conversations would probably be avoided.
"Oh?" His brows raised and he snorted. "I might just have to take over your throne, now won't I?" Kam! Don't ever imply a female is fat! But he was just teasing as well, he hoped she realized she was practically as skinny as him. He smirked and his tail flicked, his eyes following her only when she was circling his front half.
Why was he still here? "Loneliness is suffocating." He breathed out, and his eyes darted away from her. "Can you fish?" Changing the topic was something he planning on mastering.

“Fish?”
*She questioned and brushed off his comments before.*
“I don’t think I have ever fished before.”
*Ashe stated truthfully and stopped her prancing around him. Her eyes softened as she gazed at him and sat down.*
“You know how to fish?”
*Her tone was a lot more welcoming now. She was slightly intrigued by his question. Why would she ever need to fish anyway, she always hunted on the land, and could always find something to eat.*

Kam grinned, it was a lovely expression on him. He was glad she didn't know, at least he'd be able to teach her something before she shoved him away. She didn't want him around, as well as he could tell. "Yes, in a stream. The tain is the perfect time to learn.." He nudged her with his nose and began to head through the woods.
He hesitated and glanced back. "I mean, would you like to learn how to?" His right ear tilted slightly.

“Haha, is it fun?”
*She asked as he pushed her along.*
“Why wouldn’t I want to learn? I never done it before, it could make for a new experience.”
*She mocked and lifted her head up high.*
“And who knows, maybe I will be a better fisher then you.”
*Ashe teased and quickly darted from him, just in case he decided to jump at her for being a smart a**. She laughed softly and rolled her chest down to the ground. Her tail rump swayed back and forth as she gazed at him and playful growled.*
“So come on, come show me!”

He laughed and darted forward, nipping at her. "You're rather friskey today, aren't you?" He shook his head but laughed more.
"Oh, sometimes it's fun." He thought it was fun when he first learned, though hard. "And sometimes it's disappointing... like when you can't catch the fish for a long time." He raised his brows at her. "Oh, better then me? Want to make a wager on that?" He wiggled his eyebrows at her. He had survived on fishing for his main source on nourishment, and she'd never fished before!
He picked up his pace, the stream wasn't far off.

“Mmm.”
*She smirked and nodded as he spoke. When he started off ahead of her she made sure to keep close behind. Her bight yet dark fur bristled as a passing wind hit her; and with a soft bark and quickly followed behind him and spoke.*
“A bet you mean? Mmm, alright then~”
*She was in a good mood now, she was going to be able to learn something new, and that had to do with hunting! She loved learning her ways to hunt, and he was going to show her. This was going to be very funny, she thought as she nipped at his ear and mooed along side him.*

He snorted, "So what are the wagers?" He glanced sideways at her. When he looked ahead again the river was in sight. His tail wagged back and forth and his ears perked. "Better think of them quickly." He grinned.
He slowed down and when they got to the river he stopped completely, shaking off his fur a little.

“Mmm, well, I don’t have anything to offer really. So if you win you can pick anything you want, I guess.”
*Ashe spoke with a grin. Her tail playfully batted from side to side as she followed him along.*
“And if I win, I get what I want, deal?”

He snorted. "I don't know if I should agree to such a pieced together deal as that." He chuckled. His golden eyes scanned the water, and he started to move upstream a little, there was a small pool of water with some beautiful rocks and a perfect log caught between some of those rocks. It was the loveliest place for fishing. "But I'm feeling a bit on the wild side today so why not?" He winked at her and slowly stepped in the water.
"Now," His voice had dropped low, quiet. Actually it was probably below a whisper, seeing as Kam was soft spoken to begin with. "Once you find a good spot in the water, keeping yourself between the middle and a bank, try and be very still. Fish are curious." He grinned, eyes scanning the water. "Anyways, they'll come toward you. Find one you like..." And he seemed to pause, as if he'd found one. "Get ready and..."
In one swift motion he darted his head forward, jaws open slightly as he went for the fish. He came back up soaking, looking pleased with himself as he jerked his head toward the bank, letting the 'fish' fly. The only problem was... it hadn't been a fish at all. It was a stick. Which naturally made mr. expert fisher Kamali look confused. "Hey!" He suddenly looked a little embaressed. "Well.. it was going to be a fish.." He coughed.

Ashe found herself smirking at his silly words. Kam, to her was a very silly wolf, who was very smart but strange at the same time. So what if her wager wasn’t perfect, it was still one. Freedom of the mind could sometimes be a good thing. Her lips curled as she gazed at him before he moved himself into the water. For a moment she simply took in his beauty, he was very charming in more ways then one after all.
She couldn’t quite tell why she liked him so much, but something about him kept her sticking around. She wouldn’t dare tell him this though, no no no, she wouldn’t give him that kind of satisfaction. As he pushed himself into the water, trying to show her how… fishing was done she laughed and wagged her tail playfully.
He was joking right?- she really couldn’t tell. With a sly smirk the female quickly moved herself beside him and with a soft nod lower her ears. She would show him, she would get a fish and win whatever it was she could from him. Her paws slowly moved in the water as she dragged herself along, until she found a spot far enough away from him as she could, without making too much motion, she didn’t want to make the water ripple… she didn’t want to freak the fish out.
She stood still for a moment and gazed down at the paws, as If she were awaiting a surprise attack from a floating friend. Ashe would stand here all day if she had to, she was going to beat him.

He took a deep breath and snorted, shaking off slightly and then becoming very still as she moved off. He watched her for a little bit and smiled to himself. She was very determined, it seemed. He liked that. In the past when he'd tried to show others of fishing... well they were not really all that interested. His tail wagged a few times before he looked back to the water, watching for fish.
He couldn't just let her win, he had to catch something besides a stick or a cold. But occationally his concentration would break and he'd glance up at his companion, watching still.
