Even so, come

She had a point, if the fish were to freeze it would hardly be as appetizing as it was now. He smiled to her and lowered his form down into the snow, the northern wolf's thick hide protecting him from the cold with ease as he held it in place with heavy forepaws and began pulling scales and flesh into his mouth while she spoke. He couldn't help but think that she was being modest at first, a grin faintly present on his maw as he listened. Though, when she got to the part about Greed his jaws left the fish and he gulped down the rest of what was left in his mouth.

Vivid stare would seek her own as he listened to her warning, his heart sinking slightly as his inky lips managed to frown even more than their usual state of pout. Thick cheeks made it hard for him to look as though he were doing anything other than pouting, but there was a genuine feel to this frown. "I hadn't thought of it like that. Greed has been so.. careless when it comes to what happens with the family that I've felt he is undeserving of the love and sanctum we can provide for him. But he is blood, you are right. I will try to continue to show him that we are here for him and maybe you will be right about him regretting his mistakes one day, as well." He sighed, that was a lot to leave up in the air and to the hands of fate. Could Greed come around? He certainly hoped so, but even since they were all toddlers the boy had been so grumpy and distant from the rest of them.

His molten gaze drifted back to Ama's blues as he forced a smile to come across his lips, something he'd learned from the woman back in their last meeting was that a simple smile shown could mean the world despite whether or not it reflected how you felt on the inside. It was a show of strength and belief that everything would be alright, even if they didn't seem to be now. "Thank you again, Ama. You're not just a wound healer, but a heart healer, too." He chuckled and would lean forward to give her a fishy kiss to her cheek before the boy plopped down again. "Are you up here for the night then? I could see if Avalon wouldn't mind a guest staying in the mines. Or, if that's a bit too crowded for you, I wouldn't mind spending the evening with you elsewhere- I would just hate for you to be alone."
