Hang Me From A Flowering Tree [Closed]

"Oh" And in that single syllable, she was able to some up much of her thoughts. Oh yes, she understood what sort of business that was. After all, she was a creature from Midori, and where there's the sea.. there are pirates. Whether the romanticism of such a job was included with the lizard's particular choice of work was questionable, but Zuberi would not be the one to inquire about it. "Well... I'm glad that be workin' out for you..."

Now, this was just frustrating. Right now Zuberi was dealing with a creature that was very much the epitome of a shady character, but for some damnable reason she was... drawn to her. How ridiculous! What sort of fate had brought her to become so fascinated with this Lowlander?

Despite herself, she was showing her anxiety through her fidgeting, and her tail flicked behind her with agitation. "Do you consider yourself to be a tale of woe, mfriend? I feel.... as if anythin' I bring up b'tween us be somethin that aught not be spoken of. If anythin' I think you be fascinating for just that reason. Everything' I be hearing from you points straight to t'e conclusion that I shouldn't be messing with your sort, but I just be feelin' that you be such a -good- creature... you see my conundrum? An' forgive me for bein' frank, mon... I jus never met t'e like of your sort before. Not like you." With a puzzled frown, Zuberi leaned back on her tail."I hope I not be offensive, friend.. but I jus feel that you be the sort that likes a good... honest comment from the likes of me. I be expecting that you be needin' it."

Iskra licked her eye again in what seemed was becoming a rather cemented habit, not at all sure how to take Zuberi’s sudden heart-felt outburst. A “good” creature, was she? She didn’t feel like she was any sort of creature, particularly, except for maybe something in-between. Such a two-dimensional understanding of good and evil had always seemed rather ridiculous to her, though the trouble Zuberi was having with the construct was almost endearing. No, she wasn’t a good creature.

Regardless, it was pleasant to have the squirrel take such an honest interest in her well-being, even after such an inauspicious meeting, and she couldn’t let such goodwill pass by unacknowledged. She struggled for the right words, debating with herself on how much or how little to say. In the end, she muttered what she hoped sounded like a sincere ‘thank you’ before lapsing back into silence again.

This talk with Zuberi had resurfaced quite a few old memories, many of them bittersweet. She didn’t trust her voice not to give her away.
