||May let the world roll around in her mind. Nobody really used words like that around her, except for Magdalena. She thought long and hard, her eyes swirling with concentration. Until...||
"He can turn into a snake?!"
||Her time in the woods with Leshy hadn't made her exactly a wildlife expert, but May more than made up for it with her excitement and pure adoration for all things alive.||
"Snakes are sooo cool!!! Their scales feel so nice and pretty and they're also really fast! I once saw a snake that swam in the pond! I thought it was a fish at first- and did you know that their mouths get superrr big?? I once saw a snake eat a whole mouse, and he didn't even chew! If I'd try to do that I'd-"
“Yes, a snake; I feel inclined to agree, Dagmar is a rather beautiful snake. Mostly black and silver scales with some half-stripes and a crest on his head, striking blue eyes. He himself can get as half as big at the house, probably bigger as he gets older. He should be around your age; How old are you little one?”
Haya tried not to cut her off, happy and pleased with her excitement off it all, but there were a few things she felt curious about as she opened the large wooden door to her home, stepping inside with a smile. The home smelled of cedar wood and hints of patchouli with sweet musk. If you noted, there was also a bit of smoke, probably from her tending to the fires.
Approaching the counter with a small smile, Haya took the warming kettle off the fire and moved to pour two small cups. She never expected company, but Haya had made a habit of setting two cups out anyways, for friends she hadn’t yet met. Today was one of those days it seemed, and she was grateful.
