Getting to know you

Naiche doubted Sirius would let a stupid wolf be in the pack, though she was young enough to perhaps get some tolerance? “Did you grow up in this pack then?” She must have always had someone with her if navigating was not a thing she ever had to worry about. Unless this was the first time ever that bird let her down?
“Diplomat?” Naiche sat down in a slow deliberate manner, mostly allowing that extra few seconds to work through his thoughts. What status did that give her? Probably relatively high if she got to speak for the pack at times. It depended on how much power Sirius would give to a diplomat. Did she get to make choices or just a fancy name for ‘messenger.’ “Sounds like an interesting job. I guess you only have to work as a diplomat though when wolves from other packs come here?” The question was asked as curiously as any other but had its own hidden layer to it. She had just said she never had to navigate around on her own so if she traveled to other packs that brought up questions didn’t it?
Naiche chastised himself again for being suspicious when he was the newest member. Really, it could just be that his pride was hit for not having noticed her before. Naiche had to admit to having limited experience in some areas like fighting but he had always thought himself good paying attention to his surroundings. Yes, pride had something to do with it. It was also impossible to fully trust those he just met. The other wolves? None of them had managed to surprise him yet!
Naiche did smirk in some amusement at her description of the warriors. Yah, it kind of fit his style if that’s how a lot of the wolves where. “A tour? No but I was planning to take some time to get to know the territory.” Did he want a tour? It meant more socializing which was a pain, but he wanted her to prove him wrong. If he got past his pride was she just some naïve fool who couldn’t figure out how to keep up with where they were? Naiche glanced out further to the north. His desire to explore was something that had not changed from before that horrible time.
