Laughing half-heartedlheatedly, Akira smiled gently. " well, in human years your not much older than me. So, even if not by human standards, in kitsune years your still a child as well. So yes, of course I'm going to speak to you as such. " she flattened her ears, looking around. " well... as long as they're not stained it'll he alright then I suppose. "
She huffed, glaring at him" dont you think I would've tried that already if I had the strength to? Even telepathy takes energy, Heinrich " while her words were stern, she understood he didn't like showing weakness. Nobody does. But if one's life depends on it... sacrifices have to be made. As he finally gave into her wishes she smiled, before yelling as he dropped her.
Noticing where his head had landed upon her, she growled at his unconscious form, ears flattened. Using what little strength she had, she shifted so his head rested on her stomache rather than where it had been previously.
For a while she stayed like that, and after some time she was beginning to think the other kitsunes wouldn't help them. However, eventually a few people with fox tails appeared. Three of them were women, one was a guy. Though she knew there were more kitsunes still around in fox form. She recognized the guy as one of the kitsune that would often visit her village. However, she set that aside for the time being as she explained their predicament with the head of the smallish gathering of kitsune. Eventually two of the four that had talked with her picked up Heinrich and took him to a small room in the cottage to care for him. Meanwhile, she was taken to one of the two small pools that made up a miniature hot springs behind the cabin, so she could warm up, having still been cold from the effects of the frost and ice magic. The hot-spring like feature was surrounded by walls on all four sides, and a makeshift roof. A divider split the springs in half, so each gender got one half of the springs.
