Hugging the seal skin to her chest, the strange, exotic female took a step back, surprised at his sudden coughing and rambling. What on earth was he doing or saying? Blinking her dark teal eyes in confusion, the selkie quirked her head to the side, her strawberry blonde, almost borderline orange hair fell across her face.

"Kiii..." a soft little noise issued forth from her lips, a soft alto voice from the sounds of it. As the man smiled and laughed, the selkie jumped back, timidly creeping forward on her knees as she realized he had made no movement against her or her pelt. The skin was clutched tightly and securely in her arms as he spoke to her in the strange tongue.

As the male's voice reached her ears, she shook her head, thinking maybe he wanted her pelt. Her brows furrowed in confusion and uncertainty as she clutched her precious sealskin to her breast. Her grip was protective and firm, she would not let go for anything!

So far, the human seemed to be harmless, but the female was on guard, eyes watching his every movement.
