Though she didn't seem as entertained by his presence as he was by hers, he continued to smile nonetheless. Life was too short to refrain from smiling, and the expression came easily enough to him anyway. He was surprised by her direct stare, offering a slightly uncertain flick of his tail in response, his place slowing considerably as he veered closer to her. He had no intentions of bothering her, but it was hard to tell if her expression was irritated or simply a bit bemused. "Ah, that's quite the image," he quipped with another gentle bout of laughter, tail waving a bit more freely now. It seemed as though the stranger had succeeded in cheering herself up, at least, and his posture lightened a bit at her visible smirk. She followed it up with a question, and he shook his head in negation - perhaps a bit too quickly. "Definitely not," Kai answered easily, his voice betraying his disdain for that possibility. "I'm not much of a.. pack wolf, not really," he explained with a gentle shrug of his shoulders. To say he understood the appeal of a pack would be true, but his father had taught him the value of independence and freedom. And he highly doubted he would thrive under the rule of another. He'd enjoyed his freedom thus far, and had no interest in testing his luck otherwise. "What about you...?" His voice trailed off as he realized he hadn't asked her name yet, and his ears flicked atop his head as he pondered this stranger's demeanor. "I'm Kai, by the way." |
