Had she said that? She couldn't remember. It happened pretty frequently, mixing up what was thought and what was said - there were times where she had been certain of having said something and yet it never left her head.
Regardless, there were other things to talk about, some of which would come a bit awkwardly to her. How often she found herself using that word with this little flufflebat. But that's how it seemed - the little one didn't yet understand the bond of clan, not properly, not as one who had been born into and known it for their entire lives. She would learn, but it left an awkward fumbling, something that was highlighted by Shine's own awkwardness with Beacons. Shamanesses and Beacons were not always compatible.
Where have you been sleeping? she asked, getting straight to the point. Usually a softer, more roundabouts manner worked better with the little one, but she wasn't sure how else to handle it this time. The young one had been adopted for a while, but she hadn't been adopted by any proper parents - she wasn't, by default, staying in anyone's den.
Tilting her head, the kitsune paused a breath - and no more - before explaining. You're still young, she said, as if the kid needed reminding, which is in your favor. Typically you'd still be in your birthden, a kind of safehold where you would first learn to explore our lands. For a moment an intense pain flickered in the blue-gray orbs as their loss once again cut into her. Her eyes were her only give away, however, and she doubted the little one would be so observant as to notice. I know that while you rest you're Muted - an effect of dens. Essentially the energies you would normally give off become muffled and hidden, which tells me you found one place to stay and have kept to it.
She paused again, not wanting to overload the youngling. Learning how to trace the bond back into Sunspot's mind, and now Muting and den transfers - the fluffle would need a chance to breathe a little between lessons, or they might overwhelm her. She also liked to give ample time for questions, and pausing to see how well it was all settling in the youngling's brain was a good opportunity for them.
