Watch Your Step...

[Pancake]

Along the rocky landscape, a tannish-cream pelt broke up the gray stones with the contrast in color. Pancake had been traveling for a while, desperately wanting to escape from her homeland. But why did she have to stumble across this? What a dangerous place... It made her nervous... Well, even more than usual. Pancake's blue orbs move back and forth, her paranoia imminent. It's quite obvious that this young female was forced out on her own too early, and in her case, by a tragic, untimely event. This is the last place a meerkat should be, much less one as nervous as herself. She carefully made her way across the rocks, she wonders if there's another meerkat in this forbidding place, or at least that's what she thought... Pancake, as much as she didn't trust strangers, would very much like to see one right now...

Milo's paws had taken him here, it was like he had no control over them. But he was hoping that it was for a good reason, what sort of reason could be a good one in this weather was unbeknown to him. The ground was cold beneath him and he hoped that spring would come soon enough, he had been so cold in the bolt hole that he had occupied last night. It was times like that which made him wish that he had someone to cuddle up next to.

Just at that moment in time Milo's eyes noticed movement to the right of him and he realised that it was another meerkat. Her fur as light and he got a glimpse of her blue orbs, but he also noticed her nervous disposition through her body language and so sat on his haunches observing her whilst making greeting calls to her. After all he didn't want to scare the little lady off.

[Pancake]

Pancake turns her head and rests her eyes on the creator of the calls. Well, what do you know. Another meerkat... She returns his calls, a bit shakily. This place makes her very uneasy, so many bad things could go wrong. As if the cold weather wasn't bad enough. Gently and slowly she makes her way towards the stranger, curious as to who he is.

It appeared that he was certainly right about her being nervous as her shaky calls reached his lobes. A rock came bouncing down towards him so Milo quickly bolted forward so he was right next to the female, in this place you had to be on your toes at all times. "And thats why its not a good thing to stay in one place for long up here." He chuckled softly trying to imply that it was a joke, Milo was attemtping to put her at ease and watched her face for a reaction. "Sorry my name is Milo, and yours is?"

[Pancake]

Pancake blinks at the male but nods. "Yes... I don't plan on staying, I'm only passing through, looking for a better place to restart my life." She glances around, wondering which way she should go... The doesn't seem to be any particular way that looks better. At the same time, although still nervous, she doesn't really want to be alone again... As Milo's voice reaches her ears once again. she turns to look at him. After a long moment, she gives a shy answer... "Pancake... My name is Pancake. Nice to meet you."

[Fαвѕ]

Milo was quite surprised to hear that she didn't want to stay here long, it was quite unusual for females to leave the mob firstly but then to not want to settle down in the first place that they found company well personally he thought that was strange. The females around here were quite strange, "Oh i see, is there any paticular place that your heading?" He questioned before tilting his head down so he could groom his chest as he waited for her response. "Nice to meet you too, you seem quite intimidated by this place if you don't mind me commenting on it...would you rather go else where?" Milo was learning to not worry so much about how things sounded, even if the words coming from his maw seemed like he was implying something completely different indeed.
