Okay first off, this place so didn't look like the dig she had been on in the middle of the Pacific.  Which would explain why Taylor has a mud streak in her dark hair, and on her clothes.  Though she brushes herself off mostly to try to look presentable.

After a moment she gives up, after all at least it's only mud and not blood or any thing else.  Though her bare arms, show she's not unused to rough landings, coral hurts if you hit it in a bailout after all.

"This so isn't Rapa Nui, so.  Would it be a bother to ask two things?  Well three.  Who is the Kahuna in charge? And where are we?"  Yes she slipped into surf slang only because so far, she doesn't see professor types around and she really had been looking forward to getting the job done and testing some of the waves before she crashed for the night.  Of course, it's hit or miss lately if she gets surf time.

She hums and nods. "Ah, I prefer more..classic style myself..maybe with some sausage and mushrooms along with my pepperoni." She murmurs warmly with a small smile. "Definitely sounds like fun to try and make." And she makes a mental note as to Tay's perhaps comfort food?

She hums a little high-pitched and uncertain. "Ermmmmmhhh." Before slightly tilting her head and nodding. Oh yes, speeches and a lot of strangers not her forte either. But one did what one must. Or try and talk to the more familiar face or faces in that crowd and project. She takes a deep breath in and then out. "Erm..aye?" She half asks half states with a slightly nervous chuckle. Not certain how Tay feels about them but so long as they leave her and other folks alone she'd return the favor.

Other than say Charlotte etc Aal had a boot or sneaker etc at the ready to help with things of that sort if and when they became an issue. Usually, she tried to shoo them away or at least make sure they didn't say someone transformed or cursed in some manner first.

She tilts her head, "Aye, least not that I've seen." And she'd hoped not to have to see his bad side come out. But one never knew what sort of Surprises and the like the Nexus and life, in general, would get thrown one's way.

She gives a small smile doing her best to focus on something more positive. "Right, ahem well..How ya feel about a snack before we try and get some things for ya sorted?" She asks warmly.

Aal smiles softly pleasantly surprised. It honestly felt like an age since someone had asked her advice about such. She squints happily for a moment. Before her jaw nearly falls to the floor as she melts very touched at hearing her say such.

Even if it might seem a small thing to the other woman, "I am?" She asks a little taken aback, though happily. Her lips twitching as she tries not to beam but her eyes light up. If her tail had been out it would wagging a mile a minute.

With a wee wolfish smirk, Aal softly clears her throat and squares her shoulders. "I am." Her tone a little more confident with a little head nod before notching it up a little regally and proudly." Ahem Well, most folks originate themselves via the plaza being as sometimes things." She motions her arms and hands in a rotating pattern. "Move around.. sometimes quite literally..and Well, one good thing about the place there's all sorts of options depending on what tickles yer fancy. " She murmurs warmly.

She makes a soft wry almost bemused sound, "So long as you use that bravery wisely ya should be fine." And if not, there will be words. She didn't care how big for their britches someone was. She twitches her nose, Tay was officially becoming one of her favorite new persons as it was. On top of her Den mother instincts kicking in.

She makes a soft bemused sound a small twinkle in her eyes a small wolfish smirk in reply. "Aye." She nods a little again as her mouth seems to be trying to make the equivalent of, :3 between twitches. "Don't worry I shall leave the waters and the creatures therein sort of guidance to you and my mate." She murmurs half playful half solemnly. As she half raises and waves a hand slowly through the air as if gesturing over a large expanse of said water in the distance.

She hums and nods softly, "I see." She murmurs softly with a small smile. "I'm glad to hear it ended well then." She murmurs sincerely. She tilts her head. "Ah, in some cases. I tend to avoid raw and spicy things myself." She murmurs she was a mite cautious in certain areas herself. She chuckles softly and nods. "Aye, on that we agree."

She tilts her head, "I suppose..Though some places that's harder to determine than others." She murmurs diplomatically. "Can't be too careful, I've been places where Dysentery can be rampade verra easily." She murmurs her tone slightly more sagely and slightly scots-Irish sounding. Her nose twitches, and she shakes her head as if to clear it of memory as her eyes flash a light gold momentary as her inner wolf seems to scent the air at the thought of, {Meat?} {Oi, behave back there we're not fishing today.}

She hums softly trying to keep any canine sounds in the back of her throat. She did not think Tay was quite prepped yet for her 'party trick'. Or at least that one.

She grins at the latter, however, "Oh? " right pleased at hearing such, As she offers the other woman her arm mannerly as one would back in the day when going for a stroll turn about a room. "Well, that can be arranged easily enough. Though he's doing errands at the moment. " She reassures the younger woman warmly.

She hums with a slight diplomatic twitch of her nose. "I wouldn't mind a good calm or shrimp mind you." She murmurs half in thought. But also makes mental notes. "I have a friend who has a seafood spot Kenner of Kenner's Kippers." She explains warmly. Though she wasn't sure how expansive his menu was at the moment.

She smiles warmly, "And I'll be happy to introduce you. " She murmurs with a small happy squint trying not to wiggle noticeably but happy bout that. As she scans the area to see if anything new had popped up of late or along the way.

Aal chuckles warmly and bemused, "Aye , though I do make a good grilled cheese and beef stew if I do say so myself." She murmurs wondering what some of Tay's comfort foods might be.

Her ears perk up and she tilts her head curiously at the new and interesting words. "Aye certainly." She murmurs with a nod and hopeful wiggle. Before letting her feet lead her slowly or least evenly toward familiar spaces.

Aal tilts her head a little curiously, her eyes squint and crinkle at the corner slightly she did rather like turtles too and art. "Ooh, those are pretty." She half comments complimentary. wondering if they were simply because she liked them or like in some cultures they had some deeper/cultural meaning perhaps. She knew some Island folks tended toward the latter.

She smiles softly as she listens, "Oh I see. " She murmurs softly but still warm. Her eyebrows go up a little but they both seemed fitting. "Well, I'm glad you got out of that situation." She murmurs gently in sincere compassion and with a little firm nod. A small proud of her look on her face. Even as she reminded herself not to pry, but she would listen if Tay ever wished to talk of things.

She hums half in thought half in curious interest as she listens raptly her ears perking up, both literal and figuratively at the wording. "Well, that's a good thing to pass down if ya ask me." She murmurs with a wee nod. Her face softens. "I'm glad you had them in yer life at least." She murmurs gently. Funny, how she had a habit of taking folks under her wing so to speak as well. Well, if she felt like they might let her. Of late she seemed to just have a habit of accidentally chasing folks off it seemed.

Her shoulders sag a little. She tried not to come off too strong, but sometimes her maternal and other instincts got the better of her.

Aal's eyebrows go up a wee bit, half curious. "Oh? " She murmurs she knew there could be ways well..depending on what had happened and what kind of ream it was, etc. Naturally, everything had some sort of price. But if she could help a friend find peace or network /point her toward someone who could be of assistance. In say some sort of Quest. Pack ahem Family by blood and or bond were important. As was closure.

Heck if she ever had a chance to at least know..certain members of her own family's fate..After..ahem but Tay's problems was what needed to be focused on right now.

She tilts her head to the right in a canine way, "Well..ahem that's not completely out of the realm of possibility in some places mind..Ya need someone who knows what they're doing else such can be verra dangerous." She informs her gently while also gently cautioning.
