I wanted so badly to be brave

When it came to his own abilities Sota was confident, in the most frustratingly humble sort of way, but when it came to facing the unknown.. well, he wasn't quite so sure of himself. Not that he'd turn back because of his nerves. Well, not unless Balsam did but his bolder friend wasn't known for backing down from a challenge, no matter how terrifying. And this surely wasn't the most terrifying thing they'd face here, Sota was sure of that. "I'll have to agree with you there," Sota nodded in agreement to Balsam's sentiment about this being a good place to find a giant. He knew other wolves preferred to live in the darkness, to dig dens in the dark, damp earth - he'd found a hole to sleep in before when he'd been in a pinch, but nothing beat sleeping under the open sky - and he wondered if Balsam was on to something. Maybe some of them slept at the bottom of this ravine? In his head, it made perfect sense.
His gaze followed Balsam, and his comment earned an eye roll. "As if," he replied smoothly, though his voice lacked the confidence he was striving for. Would he chicken out? Definitely not. Would he find himself quivering in the presence of a giant? Well... possibly, but not definitely. He would likely be kicking himself for deciding to follow Balsam here the entire time, though he doubted he'd truly regret his decision. Either way, he had no clue what to expect when they saw their first giant, and so the sudden rippling of bright red fur below them made him nearly fall off the tree branch he'd been perched on. Quickly he composed himself, eyes widening as he watched the beast moving below them. Okay, that was definitely a giant and Sota was suddenly at a loss for what to do or say. The thought of Balsam somehow taking the tail of a beast so large seemed suddenly laughable, like a childhood story, and he quietly cleared his throat as he looked down to Balsam with a visible question in his gaze - What the heck do we do now?
