Walk | "Talk" | Think

It was near impossible for Rune not to grin widely as Ares spoke out about being paired with Viridiana for the impending diplomatic ventures to the neighboring pack lands, and he gave up fighting back the grin that spread across his face about as soon as he felt it start to form. There was no surprise to him upon hearing this. Aunt Vi had always been a little rough around the edges, but she had tolerated them at any rate, playing a semi-constant role in their lives while hanging around in the background and going about her duties upon their mountain home. But to say that she was sweet and personable always would have been a lie. And he wondered as Ares mentioned Aunt Vi thinking that she was able to scare the pup that perhaps she truthfully did. At least a little.

Quite suddenly there was a subject change, and Rune was being asked to chaperone a hunt for the young boy. His frosty blue eyes blinked at first, taken aback by the question. It was one thing to merely keep the kid company while he went about practicing his fighting skill on the Tortugan flora, but it was a different endeavor entirely to lead him off on a hunting expedition, even a little one. "Uh," he murmured, buying himself merely seconds more to think. He did consider his own hunting skills to be acceptable, still in need of work but good enough to get by, but taking someone else along with him...

Deciding at the last second to use the chance as a learning experience and as another way to improve upon himself so that he would be that much more ready by the time he was sent off to assist Morphine in her information collection, he drew his shoulders upward in a shrug-like gesture. "Sure I guess," he answered, already beginning to glance around with a quick sniff at the air to scent what was close by in their immediate vicinity. "Uh, anything in particular?" he asked uncertainly, pausing to glance at Ares once with a questioning stare. Hopefully the kid knew what was possible and what wasn't; Rune might have been well on his way to filling out his form but he was in no way capable of taking down large game on his own.
