"Um... alright." He gave his full attention to the spirit as he held a hand out, like a handshake (he wasn't sure what else to do) and spoke: "I'm Howl - are you um, maybe wanting to be friends?" He didn't know if i tunderstood him or not but it did press its face into his hand like it wanted to be petted. So he petted the... whatever-it was-spirit. It yipped happily and kept rubbing its into his hand to get petted more.
She smiled, "See its warming up to you already Howl. That's a good thing."
