He noticed Balsam's rather obvious eye roll, and Sota found his lips pressing together in a tight line in response to the exaggerated expression. Regardless of Sota's rather tame protests, he knew he wouldn't convince Balsam of anything. When his mind was set on something, there was hardly any chance to change his mind about things, so instead of arguing further her simply mirrored the scowl with a much smaller one of his own.
He admitted he planned to just look around and get used to things. And see how the giants lived, of course. "Have you seen any of them yet? The giants, that is?" Sota asked curiously. He had been keeping a safe distance from any strangers so far, and he couldn't help but be wary of running into them. He didn't doubt that he could outrun one, but.. still. The rumors he'd heard of wolves nearly three times his height was a bit nerve-wracking, even if he was bright enough to know that was a slight exaggeration. Perhaps if Balsam had some insight into whether they were terrifying or not, Sota might not feel so uncertain about the whole thing.
But his frown wilted at Balsam's next words. A trophy like that would no doubt earn him Velvette's attention, if nothing else would. But - how dangerous! And yet painfully admirable at the same time. He sighed wistfully. "I don't support your plan, but I better be there when it happens. If I've come all this way to keep an eye on you, I don't want to miss that." Sota doubted he'd ever find a trophy quite like that - though he was quite interested in how his friend planned to get his paws on such a trophy, and the slight grin he wore proved he wasn't entirely displeased with the thought.
