[he's really glad right now he decided to call her via voice instead of video. because he's totally free to let those words sink in as his gaze awkwardly shifts to the side with an unspoken "err..."]

Mm. You can go out without worrying about frostbite. [a beat] Pookie?

[Her voice gets noticeably brighter as she talks about her love.]

Pookie's my dog! He's a little pompsky and he's just the cutest, yes he is! [Her voice shifts to pet voice for a sec as she nuzzles her face against Pookie's, who gives a happy little yap in return.

Honestly it's probably better that Cloud can't see this too.]

I found him in the street a few months ago so I took him in and he's just such a good boy! Dray even likes him even though he doesn't like dogs. [Though he'll never admit it.]

That's really good about the weather, though I'll miss the snow. It's always so pretty, especially out here in the woods, though when it gets to be a lot it can be a problem getting out sometimes.

"er..."

[as he listens over on his end, the cutesy pet voice surprises him. between her glee and the happy pup's yap in kind, it was almost too much. enough so that even if he couldn't see her right now, he could at least imagine it all the same.

which is why, as brief as it was, it actually earned something not so commonly heard out of Cloud. a little laugh before being left with a little smile on his face as he listened to her go on about her dog. he was just fine with being the listener. he was better at that.]

Guess you get snowed in?

[klutzette]

[Cloud's light laugh makes Colette giggle a little herself. She's not sure why, exactly. Maybe it was just that the last time they had spoken things had been a little more serious so she was glad to hear him relaxed. Regardless, she's smiling on the other side of the line and it's only half because of Pookie.]

Only for a couple of days here and there. When it's not too windy I can fly to town or the gate, but big gusts can make it hard; I had to spend the night at one of my inns once. Luckily Dray and I had stocked up pretty well, though, so we weren't short on supplies.

[The fact that Dray hunts was certainly a help. Even if the path to town was blocked off, there were still things living around the nest that they could eat.]

Oh, I'm sorry! I've been talking so much. How was your month?
