He blinked his silver eyes, his expression remaining neutral as he observed her. Normally he felt confident that he could read her, but today she was holding her expression well and he couldn't tell what she was thinking. Was she annoyed with his appearance, or interested to see him? A slight huff passed his nostrils, but he just perked as she answered in one word that she was fine. His head canted to the side when she asked how he was. He shrugged, tail flicking just once. "I can't say I've had a bad time," came his conflicted reply, his tone obviously implying that he wasn't exactly enjoying himself, even if he had nothing bad to say. He quirked a brow when she stated that she'd heard about the pack he intended to start. Ah, so Riv had been spreading the word. And it sounded like maybe, just maybe, there was the tiniest inflection of curiosity in her tone.

With the slightest smile tugging at the corner of his lips, he nodded. "Yes," he responded thoughtfully, "I've been working hard all season traveling to new territories, and seeking out followers. It's been... an interesting campaign." He had met a lot of different wolves, and seen places he'd never been to before. It was exhilarating and exhausting all at once. He couldn't wait until he'd achieved his goals, and he could finally settle in the territory he wanted to claim. Taking a breath, he glanced to the much taller woman's red eyes, curious as to how she was taking all of this. After all, she had mentioned it, so she must have been somewhat interested to hear what he had to say. "So, you and Riv... you've been enjoying the summer together no doubt, without any duties to fulfill," he commented, "What about when the seasons change... where will you stay when it gets cold?" He knew that in the blistering heat of today, it was difficult to think of a day when the snow would fall again and the air would be frigid. He'd spent his first few years mostly alone, and he knew what it was like to suffer through winter alone - it was an awful struggle. He intended to be settled and prepared well before winter this year.
