Avatre shrugged. “It’s fair turnabout, I think, considering children seem to do all they can to annoy their parents. I would say sons in particular like to give their mothers gray hair before their time, since mine is doing his best at that.”
Her golden eyes glinted, whether with humor or annoyance it was hard to tell; maybe a bit of both, since Avatre was known both for a lack of patience and a sometimes sardonic sense of humor. “Of course I’m different from a bird. Foxes are essentially land creatures, after all. It’s in the case of wings and flight that I share any similarities with them.” There was a slight lift to the corner of her mouth; sardonic humor was about to make an appearance. “I don’t breath fire, but I can make it erupt from my paws. You tell me if I’m more like a bat or a dragon.”
She shook her head, politely declining Maevin’s offer. “You don’t have a working knowledge of how a Daeva is put together. You wouldn’t know what to press on or, more to the point, what not to press on. It’s just a bit of muscle strain that’ll wear off by the end of the day.”

Though Maevin's ministrations were slowly putting her into an almost trance-like state (like petting a giant, fire-producing cat!), she was plenty aware enough to chuckle softly. "Of course it's very me. It would be silly of me to be very someone else unless I was an actress. Which I am not." She turned her head to the side, one large bronze eye rolling back so that she could barely see Maevin on her back. "You I'm still attempting to figure out. Would you take it amiss if I said you'd have done well being born as one of my own species rather than the smaller body you wear now?"
A soft rumble of her stomach, barely audible, reminded Avatre that while her back muscles might be content her empty belly was anything but. She'd been distracted by Maevin before she'd gotten a chance to eat. "Not to change the subject, but are you hungry? I made a kill earlier, a donkey foal. I was on my way home with it when I spotted you, so I only had time to drop it off for safe keeping. I could eat the whole thing myself if needed, to avoid waste, but there's enough for me to share and still feel sated."

Avatre stood up carefully, slowly stretching. She heard a few joints pop, but it felt wonderful. Once she was sure her muscles were all still mobile and hadn't stiffened she gave her wings a few slow flaps. Yes, everything was in working order. She turned to look at Maevin. "Alright then. I'll lead from the sky. I'll probably wind up having to circle a bit since you'll be traveling so much slower than I will, do don't worry if you see me just drifting. My den isn't too far though. If you see me coming down fast, it means I've spotted predators. I don't think we'll run past anything, but you never know."
She took a few steps back so that she didn't blind Maevin with the sand and grit kicked up from the wind of her wings, crouched, then launched into the sky, furiously flapping to gain altitude. Once she got a bit of height the warm winds aided her, making flying less work. Still, that food would be quite welcome. She started flying towards her home, peering below her to make sure Maevin was following and trying to keep low enough that he didn't have to strain to pick her out from the sky. She was glad that at least she was bright pinks and yellows. Her friend Kashet, with his blue and green fur, though have been much harder to spot.
