a place for me

The stranger grinned back at him, seeming friendly enough to not send Kai running in the opposite direction. He was grateful that most wolves he had met seemed willing to talk, for he craved the company of all kinds. Meeting new people had always intrigued him, and he wore his interest plainly on his face as he studied Brandr, tail waving freely behind his back. He wondered who this male was, where he had come from, and where he wanted to go. Those questions wouldn't be answered immediately though, as badly as he wanted to ask them.

"Nice to meetcha, Brandr!" The boy quipped gladly. The scent of the prey was stronger now, and his interest shifted toward it, nose twitching as he sniffed at the air. "A hunt sounds like a good idea." The berries that he had found hadn't quite quelled his hunger, though he hadn't expected them to. "I've only helped my dad take down a deer once, a young one, but I think we could figure it out. I'm in." Splitting the kill in half sounded more than fair. Hell, Brandr was older than him and likely more experience, so he wouldn't have even been opposed to letting him have a bit more. But it was likely more than enough for the two of them to share.
