The pale man snorted at Kakashi, it was obvious that he wasn't enjoying the mud one bit. After all that had happened here over the years, the mud was the lesser issue. His stoic face reminded him of Lark, not letting any emotions shine through it. Bass was more of an open book, although he was able to keep his face blank when he needed to. His tone was respectful though, that he could tell. Nodding his head slowly at the others words, he made his way through the mud to stand closer to his side, the suction on his white paws was a lot more familiar to him. "It's not as bad as a few seasons ago. The snow melted too quickly, and the rapids flooded. The whole territory was a sea of mud, and it was quite dangerous," he said softly. When he brought up Quake, his ears pinned back towards his skull. He knew that the girl had been having issues, and it didn't help that Starling was gone. He was to be her mentor, and now... he had no idea where the brown and white male was. Bass sighed, his head hanging slightly. "Do you think it's because she doesn't have a mentor? I could see if Vali wanted to take her on and to teach her things. I knew that she was happy when Starling was teaching her about herbs..." he broke off, growing quiet as he looked towards the borders. Where was the boy? Was he ever going to come home? Blinking, he turned back to the darker male. "I could try to talk to her as well, I've known her for a long time now. I mean... if you think that would help?" His shoulders shrugged. It made him sad that she was struggling so bad, and that it hadn't come to his attention until now. If he would have realized it sooner instead of being wrapped up in his own drama... maybe he could have caught it before it got too bad.
