Des raised an eyebrow, smilng. "Well, don't go get your whiskers in a knot."

"No worries, I won't. I learned not to be that when I was six." Dylindra took the the fish from Des, then paused. "No...wait...six was the glue...seven was the knot...."

Des chuckled, standing up again. "Here, have at it." Des said, handing her the fish.

Dylindra grinned, and suprisingly enough at the fish. Raw. Then again....she was a seal....selkie

Des smiled. She sat on the counter beside Violet. "So tell me about yourself."

"Well, I'm one of the last of my kind. Most of the artic selkies were hunted down, seeing as we look like seals. And....Orca's kinda find us very fun playthings..." Dylindra's nose wrinkled as if in disgust. "And unfortunatley, my parents turned into their rag dolls a few years ago."

Dylindra nodded her head. "They were on a research trip up in the arctic. They were out working with their collegues, when the Huntsmen attacked the selkie village nearby. They were fast enough to make it to the water and shed their human skins, but..." she bit at her lip a momment, falling silent. "They didn't know...Mom and Dad weren't fast enough to escape the Orca's. They came at them, and Mom and Dad were torn from limb to limb like a ragdoll between rabid dogs."

Des winced. "I'm sorry to hear that." she said, placing a hand on Dylindra's head.

Dylindra sighed softly, shaking her head. "It's okay. Happened a long time ago. I was halfway 'round the world at the time. But I heard the news with sickeningly realistic details." Reaching up, she removed her hat from her head. "My mom gave me this as an early birthday present before they left. It's kinda funny that I'm so attatched to it now. I hated it when she gave it to me." Dylindra paused, then chuckled. "Kinda funny when you think about it. Seeing as I was pretty pissed when they said that was all they were getting me."

Des shrugged. "You just realised what you really had.." She smiled, swinging her legs like Biolet.

Dylindra shrugged. "Yeah. I suppose so."
