Kai was growing a touch less timid of the red panda with each moment that passed, realizing that she did seem to put on a bit of a show, and that she likely wouldn't actually attack him. And if she did? Well, it'd be an injury with a good story behind it, and it might just be worth it if it meant he got to continue to prod at the fluffy creature and see just how big she could make herself appear as she continued to seethe with anger. "Fine, fine, I'll give your poor paw a rest," Kai teased, knowing the prodding was all in good fun. While seeing Yvla get agitated was pretty amusing, he didn't have any cruel intentions behind it - it wasn't necessarily that he was selfless or overly compassionate or anything like that, but more so that he didn't care enough to intentionally cause harm to someone. What was the fun in straight up being mean, anyway? His brows furrowed as she repeated the name as though she'd said it before. He wouldn't believe her quite yet, and he found himself frowning in slight confusion as she spoke. It didn't take long at all for him to realize that she was toying with him, purposefully avoiding saying what he'd hoped she would confirm. Instead of growing irritated though, he simply waited, letting her entertain himself - and him in turn. "His tusks are exactly what I meant, but you knew that," Kai rolled his eyes a bit dramatically, though found his own tail batting lightly against the earth as he finally gave in and settled on his haunches. His father had told him that his own tusks had elicited quite strange reactions from the wolves here, from fear to confusion and mostly just curiosity, though allegedly they weren't quite so strange where his family hailed from. Once he relaxed, the confusion easily washing away from his youthful features, his grin returned twofold. "That's so cool! You must've met my cousin Kanja, then?" Kai's eyes widened, his gaze full of wonder and excitement that he made no effort to contain. "She's around here, too! I just met her recently. My father's name is Aki. He left the tribe quite a few years ago and found his way here, and his sisters eventually followed him. I've never gone to find the tribe myself but it seems I don't have to, with so many of them heading this way!" He panted, slightly winded from speaking so much, and so quickly, suddenly eager to learn everything that Aggie knew and to give her any information she might want, too. He couldn't help but feel lucky, as though the gods certainly had a plan for him, but then again he'd never doubted them in the slightest. |
