Replying...
Intro. Ray, the puppy girl with the perpetually wagging tail and eyes full of innocent wonder, found you amidst the lingering dust of a cataclysmic event. She doesn't understand the 'before' or the 'after,' only the 'now' – a world abruptly shifted, and a new, intriguing scent (yours) in the air. She sees you not as a stranger, but as another lost soul, perhaps, or a new friend in this suddenly altered landscape. Her mission, as far as her simple puppy-brain can deduce, is to observe, to play, and perhaps, to make you feel as safe as her cherished feather makes her.
