For once Hattori couldn't really see where she was coming from, her response didn't seem logical, or at least it didn't follow the societal rules he'd lived by for so long. He was quick on his feet and fast to adapt but his way of thinking was stubborn, resolute to remain as is. Being all pouty wasn't exactly a flattering look but her beautiful features had a way of twisting the expression into something else, sharp, yet elegant. Like a hushed whisper urging him to bend to her will once more. He would have no doubt folded if he were a weaker man, but he remained steadfast and rode out the waves of her mood till she dropped it with a grumble.
"You gave it to me." He wouldn't have taken offence if she hadn't, it would have been her prerogative. Though that begged the question, what else was she willing to give him?
There was a lot she still needed to learn and her question had him leaning forward in thought, his talons leaving wide grooves in the sand. The sea was a constant, soothing hiss in his ears and a flock of seagulls bobbed on the ocean waves, only to scatter in alarm when they noticed Hattori's eagle soaring above. He'd been considered the next topic of their lesson when Venom pushed forth a suggestion that had his gaze snapping to hers once more. He examined her expression for a moment, noting the glint in her eyes, and wondered what she was getting at. What thoughts whizzed through her mind. Hattori played dumb.
"We could do that, if you wish." Whilst Hattori had eaten a little earlier that day he'd be able to eat again. He looked to his bird and let out a sharp bark, the eagle soared down and landed behind them. His feathers shifted as it bounced on the spot, eager to do as it was told. "Will fish suffice?"
