Vulpinsula & Surroundings Call of the Hunt

[Minerva]

Minerva was glad to hear understanding, but her current state of being very tipsy wasn't helping much, she once more buried her whole snout into Miothiyle's fur with her paw slowly brushing through other vixen's tail. "I think I am bound with army for long. I don't know exactly how this contract works, I could not read back then... hicc. But! talking about you!" Minerva announced and gave Marble a peck onto her chest before moving back and getting her glass again for a big sip of the booze.

As soon as her throat was no longer perched, she put down the glass with a long sigh and tried to focus on Miothiyle. Failing a bit as the world became quite woozy for the arctic vixen. "So... I know frommm partols that sssome of those who guarrrd the city are with them! And they are ussuallllly verrrry nice. They fight wellll when needed, buuuut they mosstly jusst carre for the weak oness. I doooon't alwaysss agrreee with their ssssoft approach, buuuut they definitely arrrre very kind felllowship, giving medical aid, teaching ssself-defense and alll that. Alllssso doing arrrt thingsss. I am sssure yooou would fiiit with them and enjooooy them a lot!"

Minerva then took another big gulp of the booze and promptly giggled before once more falling into embrace of another vixen, mumbling a bit while snuggling into her.

 

[Marble]

Miothiyle couldn't help but give out a happy growl as she held Minerva close. At the same time she was a little concerned at how quickly they were drinking and how hard it was affecting them
"Ummm glass of water for this one please?" waving at one of the servers passing by and getting a nod. She kept them close and made sure that they wouldn't hurt themselves in this drunken state.
"Well just keep yourself safe okay? Perhaps next time they'll send you to a more suitable climate. Either way I will worry about you if they send you away. As for the uhh other group I think I will go talk to them, see what they are about before signing up for anything. Now you are going to slow down a little on that drink and have some water, whilst I order us some food. Do you have any preference on what you want to eat?" Gently stroking her headfur and thanking the server for the water when it arrives, holding it for Minerva

 

[Minerva]

Minerva was despite everything quite alright. She just held onto her partner and slowly mulled over their words. There was a good amount of snuggling into Miothiyle that happened before the fill and proper registration of what was going on caught up with the reality. Even then, Minerva didn't care now for things like social opinion. She was just herself.

But upon being given a glass of water she parted for a moment and whispered "I love you." Placing a peck on other vixen's paw and taking the glass to down it quickly. Placing it down, she seemed at least slightly better, if still very wobbly and tipsy. That however didn't stop her from speaking.

"Yes Talli, I am sure they will be a good choice for you, definitely better thaan this whole army thing they have hereeeeeee... your worry will make me just withstand more to come back here though." She promised while playing around with the glass. Even in her drunken state, the speed with which she was juggling it around was impressive.

"Mmm... I also woooooould love to eat one of those big green-with-red-insides fruits... I liked it so much when I've tried it in the south and it was the best thing I remember from there..." She said before fixing her gaze on Marble. "You are from the south! Tell me all about what fruits you have pleaaaaaase."

 

[Marble]

This was wonderful, this comfort and warmth, having her close and being safe in the moment. She would shuffle her seat around the circular table so it was easier for her to hold Minerva, feeling the show of affection might be a but much for some, for Marble she also didn't care at this point. Running her hand through the others fur.

With the kiss of her paw she made a soft 'squeak,' heart skipping a beat as she wagged her tail more to the show of affection. She could only muster a slight nod at the encouragement to stay away from the army and get involved with this unsmugible group. Continuing to sip her drink as she watched Minerva juggle a glass around and hoping she didn't drop it and accidently cause a scene.

As she described the fruit it took her a moment and then she made a noise of recognition.
"Tomato? Yes I know of them but not sure if they would have them. I will ask and see" She would get up and head to the bar to ask, taking the time to think about the numerous fruits she could tell her lover about and get them more excited

 

[Minerva]

Minerva just sat there, holding her head in her paws as she mulled over the word offered. To-ma-to... it didn't sound like what she had in mind. It was something more watery... but her mind was a mush right now as she awaited for her mate to come back with the fruit. In the process stopping to juggle the glass and just grunt and growl for a moment.

The arctic vixen did instead have an idea... and little imagination to stop her at the time. She stood up and went to grab a container with salt, spilling it over the table she was sitting at. Then, awaiting for Miothiyle to return, Minerva slowly drew from memory the map of her homeland as she remembered it from Imperial maps she had to study at her training.

And once Marble came back, Minerva beamed with pride as she was pointing at the (not so great) representation of Northlands in salt with slow wag of her tail. "Look talli! This is wheeeere I come from!" She moved her claw into the giant area at the northern end of it, one that Imperial cartographers typically just left blank and white, due to the impossible to traverse (for them) glaciers.

"Thaaaaat isssssss the home of the Winterrrrr, my faaatherrrrr. I wassss born there too! Though we didn't haaaaaave maps so I cannot point you out exactly where was that. But abooooout here," Her claw struck the middle of the space. "is the lone shrine where he lives... I ssssaw him you know? My father, the winter itself..."
