It's a good idea to leave your troubles— Cooper let his eyes close for a moment, listening to the crashing of waves and his new companion's breathing. It was odd how quickly at ease he felt with this white molly, though he didn't feel the need to fight it. His eyes fluttered open as she began to speak again, his head turning to look down at her.
He felt his shoulders tense as she asked her question and he glanced away. "No, no. Nobody saidanything it was just..." he paused for a moment, thinking over his next words, "a blunder of my own. Mentioned someone that was a bit of a sore spot for some members there." he admitted finally. He kept his eyes away from her white form, looking off into the horizon.
As the conversation shifted back to Hazel, the tension drained from his form. And then Starrynight came into play. Oh dear, here came those pesky thoughts. The thought-flies were back, as they always seemed to be back. But there were less, it felt like. Fewer emotions thoughts tugging at his brain. "You seem like an old soul yourself, dear" he said, the pet name slipping out with his permission. And he let it. Despite having just met her, she felt like an old companion, like she'd fit in right along with Harry and Hawk.
Cooper lifted a paw out of the water, watching as the water dripped and streamed off of his fur. When it seemed all the water had gone, he placed the paw back in the water and directed his gaze to the moon. It had moved in the sky and he adjusted to see it better. "I've heard many crazy ideas in the past and I'm open to more" he replied, not dragging his eyes from the moon's white glow. —at home when operating a vehicle.
"SPEECH"
