The owl, though Nebula was aware of it, caught his attention for a moment as he watched the pink motion blur from the corner of his eye, studying where it might land before it actually landed, but then immediately resuming. He was always one for studying anything really. He was good at absorbing information and then calculating it, even things such as the time it takes for the owl to relocate itself at a casual pace.
The rainbow Skydancer was waiting patiently for the little one's response, redirecting his attention down to her and the book, he was not one for smiles typically, but he couldn't help the one that gently tugged onto his iridescent face upon hearing her answer. He'd remembered asking a few different hatchlings of his clan the same thing, it was such an easy thing to figure out and yet none of them had answered correctly except for this sweet ice child that he'd only met minutes ago. "Correct" he says, but his voice has the obvious sound of praise mixed into it. "I had wondered for some time if this might be too hard for a young one to consider, but you seem quite different from most." Nebula added with an approving nod of his head as he stroked his claw down the dried ink on the page.
In his few seconds of silent glory, he is brought back to by Lotus's remark about a personal question. His eyes navigate the page for a moment more before he turns his whole head in the direction of the iceling, his gentle silence only acting as a further insistence that she ask, staying quiet as she speaks so that he doesn't accidentally interrupt because he can tell she's nervous to ask. Her question, however, was not what he was expecting, actually it was much better. She wanted to learn, that he could understand immediately. Nebula's eyes soften as the question piques his interest, as well as his memories. "I was, but I had no one to teach me." The Skydancer lowered his gaze back down to his self written book. "So instead, I took to the world as I was just reaching adulthood" He flipped to the very first page of the worn leather journal, exposing a map that was drawn in black ink, but it was not as neat as his current handwriting and there were sections of the map that were filled in with different colors and numerically written dates each in their own sections, it seems he'd recorded the places he'd traveled. "But you, child..." his voice sounds almost like it's dancing on the breeze around them. "If you started now, you could become something even greater than I could ever hope to accomplish, I believe."
Nebula stared at his paw-drawn map longingly, allowing Lotus to look at it for a moment if she pleases, but after that moment is over he slowly turns back to the page they had originally been observing together. "I've been looking for someone exactly like you for a very long time...so that I may pass along all that I have learned."
He'd said this, even though he was still unaware as to what clan Lotus might be from, but that did not matter to him. Even if he was a part of Citrine Citadel, he would always be a true neutral at heart.
