Tear had never seen anything like Noishe, and she was rather caught up with him. What was he? He was wandering around, looking sleepy... and very cute. She moved closer to see if she could get a better look.

The sacred beast didn't notice the melodist through his near-closed eyes until he nearly bumped into a wall. He stopped, looking up at it, blinking, and yawned. Noishe was pleased that he caught himself...unlike last time. Last time he had tripped over a step and landed into a pool of water. That was not fun.

Oh dear, that was close... but it was still so cute, and the yawn... she came a bit closer, trying not to startle him.

Finally, Noishe caught the smallest flicker of motion out of the corner of his eye. He tore his gaze from the wall to the seventh fonist. Curiosity filled his tired expression. The arshis tilted his head to the side slightly and made a noise that, in the end, sounded like a "bawr?"

Staring contest commence!

Tear stood still when she saw Noishe's eyes on her. He didn't seem to be nervous or anything... just tired. She held out a hand slowly, bending down a bit, a small smile crossing her face.

Like some sort of dog, Noishe couldn't help but sniff her. She smelled nice enough. He didn't think she was hostile...but he would not lick her hand. That was demeaning. He was not a dog. The arshis barked a short statement to Tear, though it was of course, in his bestial tongue. Still, he lamented the loss of the Sorcerer's Ring.

Satisfied with his attention, Tear withdrew her hand. He was barking at her, although it didn't sound like a normal dog bark. Of course, he didn't really look like a dog, so it made sense that he wouldn't. Was it possible to tame monsters? Or was he simply a mild-mannered monster, like a cheagle?

"You should probably go home and sleep," she said quietly. "You almost hit the wall. What are you doing out here?" Even though she knew he wouldn't respond intelligibly, like the cheagles he was probably expressive enough to get a basic emotion across.

Noishe turned thoughtful. Why not tell this woman? It's not as if she would understand him, anyway. "Well, a girl that was with us ran away, and then I lost the ring that allows me to talk to you humans, and now we're looking for the girl." He barked. The arshis sighed. Oh, if only he wasn't so stupid as to have lost the ring...

If the pack alpha were here, he would really chew Noishe out. Maybe literally! ...Okay, maybe not literally.

While she couldn't understand the arshis, it only took a moment to deduce that perhaps he was looking for something. But looking while tired was probably not the best idea... "Maybe you should rest for a bit before you keep looking around. You might miss something," she advised.

It was too bad that she didn't know what he was looking for. More than one person looking would make the process easier. Still, it didn't hurt to offer...

"Would you like some help?"

((OoC: Sorry for "spammage," reeally needed to fix the post ><))

Yes, he did need sleep! Noishe really wished he could, though. Yet, if he didn't keep looking...well...Tenebrae would get angry and he didn't want an angry Tenebrae to deal with. Ugh, the very thought of that... It almost made the arshis shiver. He wished he could listen to this lady's advice.

Help? One of the beast's large ears perked at that. But how could she know who he was looking for? How could he get that across? Noise sat still in thought. Could he even trust the melodist? She was human...but so were Raine and Marta, and they were nice, if not a little scary. Instead of providing a proficient answer, he instead fixed Tear with a questioning gaze. How could she know? Was she really not busy?

[ooc: no worries!]

She wasn't sure what the arshis was trying to say, but she was still resolute. "If you find something that looks similar to what you're looking for, then I can try to help as best that I can."

Late mun is late and terribly sorry TT

...Well, how was he supposed to do that?! Noishe sighed. He could point out that is was a person at least, but how else...maybe if he saw Tenebrae and had him translate...

Not that the arshis trusted his brother to do that, of course. However, he had seemed...distraught, so the white-and-green beast thought the black creature would help if was nearby... Not that he was in sight, so he had to cross that idea out.

Well, all he could do was all he could do. He jerked his head towards Tear and other random young women, trying to signify that he was looking for a girl. Problem was, after that...how could he describe her? He would have to think on that...
