Tiburtius blinked when Bass's firm gaze suddenly softened and a grin crossed his features, leaving Tib feeling like his legs might turn into soup. It was a relief, but at the same time it felt like he had been spun in a circle too fast. He barely registered what Bass said when he mentioned that he wasn't the worst Tib would run into here. Her brother?! He hadn't even thought about impressing her siblings! Ah man, what had he gotten himself into now? He swallowed hard and nodded at his advice to not be so nervous. Well, he certainly didn't want Finch's brother to eat him alive, that was for sure. He sputtered for a moment when Bass got up with a grin and left, his expression still a bit startled from the whole encounter. He wanted to ask more about Finch's brother, maybe see if Bass had more tips, or even just say a complete sentence without stuttering, but he couldn't get any more words out before the pale man had gone. He fell back on his haunches with a light thud and he sighed with the breath he hadn't realized he had been holding.

Just then Finch appeared, and he gave her a grateful grin. He didn't think he was ready to face her family alone again just yet so he was glad it was her that showed up next and not one of her siblings or something. She nuzzled into his chest and some of the tension in his muscles fell away. "Not too much actually," he replied with a nervous chuckle and a slight grin. "He asked what my intentions with you were and to look out for your brother and that was about it. I'm pretty sure I made a fool of myself though... Mr. Finch's Dad..." He scoffed at himself and lifted one of his forepaws to cover his face with. It was a little funny thinking about it now when he wasn't afraid of Finch's father tearing his face off, but the humor didn't quite outweigh the embarrassment.

He sighed and lowered his paw as he looked down at her again, a little smile resting on his lips. "But, I mean, he didn't chase me off or kill me so I guess it went okay." He chuckled a little and bent his head down so he could nuzzle the top of her head gently. He couldn't help but keep glancing at the pack lands behind her though to make sure Bass or her brother didn't appear out of nowhere. He had gotten quite enough startling for one day.
