The guise of ownership had always kept him away from packlands in general. It wasn't that he was afraid of trespassing, not necessarily, but it simply wasn't worth his effort. There was enough land to go around for all of them; he couldn't be terribly concerned over a few territories here and there. But he was interested in the new freedom than he could find here, and he was curious as he padded toward Kalliope. There was little care in his gait, his tail swaying lazily behind him, a grin adorning his rough features.

"You can be," he replied to her rhetorical question with a soft chuckle. "I'm just surprised to find you here, in the exact direction I happened to be traveling." Perhaps he might not have drifted to this exact spot if he hadn't caught her scent, but it had happened and he was content to think it was no more than by choice that he'd stumbled upon her. He grinned toothily at her again, and though she couldn't see his expression, his voice was full of jest. His ears twitched at the talk of politics. "Think you'll stick around here without the pack?" he'd ask conversationally, moving to settle down on his haunches near her, eyeing her for a moment before glancing toward the horizon far across the ocean. "Or will you return to your wandering ways, like yours truly?" It was an off-handed way of answering her question, but it worked.
