Rain's eyes narrowed as worry creases spread from the corners of her eyes, her brow furrowed slightly. She thought on what Andro said before she shuffled a little closer to her. 

[color=skyblue]"If you can, pull your arms out of the sleeves of your coat and into your chest...I'll tie off the sleeves to stop any heat from escaping. See if you can't get your fingers under your armpits"[/color] Rain told her, lifting an eyebrow as she thought over her words. [color=skyblue]"It's the warmest part of most people's bodies"[/color] She added. 

Her communication skills were improving, she was [i]almost[/i] use to using her voice as much as her actions. Providing Andro did as Rain told her to, the werewolf leant over to tie off the ends of her sleeves in loose knots, before she shuffled back again, keeping one of her legs bent she tucked the other underneath it and leant her arm on her elevated knee. 

Andro's giggling caused Rain to look at her with a raised eyebrow, quietly asking what she found so funny. Color tinted her cheeks and her mouth curved up into a half smile. 

[color=skyblue]"Ah...not sure if I'm glad to hear that or not really"[/color] Rain murmured, there was a sense of comradery there but it was tainted by logic, if Andro hadn't eaten either it was another point to the bitter cold working against her. The werewolf was quiet once more as she tallied up everything working against their favour...well Andro's favour, Rain was only in danger of suffering. 

Her eyes flickered from the fire to Andro resting on her as she breached the silence that had fallen between them. She swallowed a lump in her throat as she listened, mothers were a sore spot for her as well...hearing Andromeda's story opened wounds she thought had healed. Though the gorgon's tale was far darker than her own, to be openly hated by her own mother...that was something Rain couldn't understand, only the sense of betrayal such a thing could bring on. She was respectfully silent as Andromeda told her tale, her eyes occasionally looking at the storyteller but mostly focused on the blue flames of the fire, licking its way across the charred branches of the wood. 

When Andro's story came to an end and she shivered, Rain found herself searching for the right words to say. She couldn't not react to it, her first instinct was to revert to a custom she had witnessed throughout her lifetime, one that had been used on her...but with Andro's hands tucked inside her coat it wasn't possible. That and Rain was sure the meaning was only clear to her species. Instead she did the next best thing and shuffled closer to Andro, resting a hand on her shoulder, she gripped it gently through the fabric of her coat in a reassuring squeeze. [color=lightseagreen][i]'You're not alone anymore'[/i][/color] it was what such an action was supposed to say, but the words caught on Rain's tongue. 

[color=skyblue]"It must have been hard..."[/color] Rain murmured, her hand still resting on Andro. Which was a bit of a duh statement really but despite all her progress she was still only werewolf and mistakes were unavoidable. Setting her jaw as she tried to contain the swirl of emotions, Andro's story had provoked. 

[color=skyblue]"It wasn't your fault though. We don't spring out of the womb knowing how the world turns round, we depend on our parents to teach us. Your mother ruined her ski trip all on her own by forgetting her duty to you"[/color] Her voice was unnaturally tense as she spoke and she wasn't worried if she'd crossed any boundaries. Another downside of her werewolf mannerism's, she wasn't attuned to other's boundaries yet...all she could think about was the selfishness of Andro's mother's actions. It probably didn't help that selfishness was one of her pet hates.

After sometime, Rain decided that she couldn't delay getting some more branches any longer. Withdrawing her hand if Andro hadn't already shrugged it off, she made forward as if she was going to get up. Her ears pricked as Andro spoke to her, she stopped halfway up, resting down on one knee she turned back to Andromeda. 

[color=skyblue]"Hmm?"[/color] She hummed [color=skyblue]"What is it?"[/color]
