A relaxing calm washed over Sei's body as the female accepted his offer to take shelter with him from the rain, he hadn't realized he'd been tense to begin with, but thus far, he was at least glad for the fact that she hadn't made a big deal out of it, nor did it instill any negative feelings in either of them. The last thing Sei wanted was a fight, though he wasn't out of the danger yet, he knew that by doing this, he subjected himself to small talk, and questioning. Ew. Supposing that's the price of being civil. He watched casually as she joined him under the tree, noticing a lot more now, how much water still clung to her fur, if he didn't know himself better, he'd almost feel sorry. Fortunately it was just water, they would both dry off, and be about their business afterwards. He wondered if they would ever even encounter each other again, the possibilities were definitely there but, would he want to?

Sei noticed immediately that he'd been scanned, even for such a brief time, but pretended to continue paying attention to the weather, offering a smile as his only reply to being thanked. He'd already done the extent of what he needed to, to gauge her appearance for himself, it shouldn't be a crime for her to do the same, no matter how unsettling, or uncomfortable. He wondered though, how many similarly colored wolves she'd encountered, the only bragging rights Sei would consider laying claim to were his eyes. He would probably admit, or even assume the color was unique to all but a few, granted the coloration of his pelt also drew a little attention, he was hardly a good judge of himself.

He turned his gaze towards her slightly as he'd been addressed a second time, being posed with a question that, not even he himself knew the answer to. What was he doing out here? The answer in itself was simple, he was simply here because that's where he'd let himself wander. But that seemed like too bland of an answer, so... elaborate?

"To be honest..." He started, shifting his gaze away from her momentarily, not particularly fond of the idea of admitting he was lost. "It wasn't my intention on being here in at all, but, i'm not familiar with the land around here. I suppose you would say i'm lost, though I don't know where my destination would've been if I wasn't" He finished quietly, returning his gaze once more on his company. He silently questioned why he'd even shared this much information with a complete stranger. Not that it was any fault of hers, so far she'd been incredibly polite, a little nosy as of now but, he couldn't blame her for wanting to pass the time.

Sei wondered if she was going to ask more personal information about him afterwards, or if it'd just be the generic name, age, interests, so on... But would any of this be relevant if they never saw each other again? He didn't imagine they'd become friends in this short amount of time, though the weather did oddly present a perfect opportunity. Stranger things have happened, perhaps, though having a friend in a land he was unfamiliar with would have its advantages, Sei couldn't help but want nothing more than to curl up with nobody but himself, and think the night away. Figuring he should also offer a sense of curiosity to the conversation, he added on.
"What about yourself? I can't imagine this to be a popular place to be, it almost seems dangerous." He offered, casting another friendly smile her way. At least if he appeared interested, it left no room for annoyance, right? At least that's what he would tell himself, a pang of genuine curiosity dissuaded these thoughts as he waited on her reply.
