Halo found Fang to be a bit... unsettling. Yes, she'd go with unsettling as her response. The pale healer had never encountered a mongoose before, but to hear that it could hold up to the bites of venomous snakes? Well, it was something that she'd never heard before. "That's fascinating," her words were breathless. Halo felt as if she was learning something new every day. Learning was... well, it really was good. "If he gets bitten again, will you bring him by? I'd like to be able to monitor for signs of distress," and really, for the body's immune response overall. At the mention of fish and Splash purring, Halo's gaze went to the cat as well. After the incident on her very first day, big cats made her nervous. Still, this one seemed agreeable enough. Halo would try and win his affection with fish, and if that didn't work well... maybe she'd get lucky? Anyway, he probably wouldn't try to eat her like the panther had... probably? Unless Kotori told him to? Sheesh.

Still, there were more important thoughts to have in her head, and Halo refocused on the bees. Her anxieties could get a bit loud sometimes, another impact of the grey fog that seemed to settle over her head. Halo understood bees. They had simple needs, and simple responses to things. They were far easier than anything that could deceive, or lie, or make the choice to hurt someone else. They'd defend themselves, their resources, their queen... yes, simple, simple things. Halo could understand them. Understanding other wolves though? That could be a bit harder. Once more, she dipped her head to blow in the bucket and stir up more smoke. They'd all mostly drifted in Kotori's direction, which was good. Less chasing they'd have to do.

At a bit of a distance, Halo set her pail down. Wouldn't want to herd the bees past where Kotori stood and waited. The bees took pause, a few curious individuals making their way to the dandelion filled bucket. Halo nodded softly to herself-- excellent. There was a shrub low to the ground, easy to access at her height, just to the boy's side. Even better! Halo crossed from the bucket to the bees, carefully inspecting the ones that were resting on the nearby plants and flowers. "We're looking for a bee that has a longer body than the others, she'll probably be surrounded by some workers so she might be hard to see," Halo explained quietly as she began to search. "That one is the queen, if we scoop her up and put her in the bucket, the rest should be close behind," her words were confident, and she trained her focus on the bees where they gathered.
