"You seem to be in alot of thought." Theo pointed, glancing at her for a brief second.
"Could say the same for you." She said after sighing, glancing briefly at him as well. "Although, you seem to no longer be in thought. You done thinking?"
"Yeah, I am." He said nodding. "I’m sorry I ghosted."
"It’s okay. It can be like that sometimes." She replied, her eyes still taking in her surroundings.
"Soo.. you like what you see?"
"Yeah, actually. It’s.. it’s nice. It’s feels really nice to be here, feels like I’m in another world entirely. It’s very very different from the pack, I’m even getting used to their scent." She explained, smiling a bit.
"Yeah, it’s very different here. No one really cares about you here, unless you give them a reason to, or they feel they have to." Theo explained.
"Yeah, I noticed. All they did was compliment my outfit. It made me really happy. No one has ever done that at the pack." She pointed.
"Well, this isn’t the pack. But it can be like the pack."
"Really?" She asked with arched eyebrows. "They are so many, you can’t even count." She tried to explain.
"It’s actually possible to count, but would need more resources and all. And we are not so different from them actually.

So contempt is pretty normal in park life, you’d need to be very intelligent emotionally."
