"You're a mighty opponent." Her words surprised him, but he didn't show it. He chalked it up to being nothing more than flattery. He didn't think he was. Not yet. Though he had fought a bear with the help of his brother and Hannibal, he had yet to really participate in any actual fights. He felt he just got lucky the day he sparred with her. "Thank you. You weren't bad yourself," He offered a small smile to her. Perhaps one day they'd spar again, but perhaps at a much later time. When tensions between her and his brother dwindled. He wasn't afraid of her, no. But in the name of his brother, he was afraid the beast in his head would try to come out to seek its vengeance. He shook his head to shake the thought away. He didn't ever try to hurt someone on purpose...and he didn't want to. It was why he tried so hard to maintain control of himself.

"What is a handsome male like you doing here on his own?" What? He found himself blushing, ears pressing back in an awkward manner. Oh boy. He would have probably been just fine till she said that. He was never really sure how to handle compliments or when someone was flirting with him. In fact, almost everytime someone tried to flirt with him it went right over his head, oblivious to it. But not this time. Based on the way she seemed to look at him, it was as plain as the nose on his face. "I was erm...trying to hunt but...it got away from me," He turned his gaze across the water where the buck had disappeared, feeling the rising frustration from his lost hunt.
