If the stranger looked surprised at his sudden arrival, he certainly didn't look upset, and Corvus allowed himself a friendly grin. His own tail mirrored the movements of Kuroo's, giving a steady wag that when accompanied with his generally carefree demeanor made his friendly intentions obvious. He watched as the younger wolf dropped some reeds down, and his gaze followed his own as he spoke up, watching as a small swarm of flies buzzed around their heads before dispersing toward the water.
The stranger didn't sound like he was from these parts. Briefly he wondered if he'd been here during the long night, or if he'd arrived after. Maybe the strange seasons were more far-reaching than he could imagine, but he had no way of knowing for sure if the entire world had suffered or if only Boreas and Auster had. "You're right, this place is good for fishing," he agreed with a slow nod. "Name's Corvus Destruction, by the way."
With an introduction out of the way, he considered Kuroo's words. It was an interesting idea, though one he hadn't exactly tried to execute himself - but why not try? Corvus was always down to learn something new, and what better way to get to know someone? "That's a neat idea. Looks like you're on to something,," he told him, giving a nod at the thick reeds he'd gathered. How would they fasten them to something though? He pondered it as he paced near the lakeside, nosing through the vegetation there. Finally he stopped near a group of cattails and used his teeth to grip it tight and tug it up, out of the dirt.
"Maybe we could use these to help tie the reeds and make a kind of net that way," Corvus suggested. It might be a little tricky but it was worth trying. Tearing off the end of the cattail and watching the white innards puff out and float to the ground, he made to work with the reeds once he got visual approval that he could use the materials Kuroo had gathered. Weaving them around the thick stalk was tricky, and took quite a few tries with his teeth, but once he made a semblance of a knot he used his paws to pull it taut. "If we get another stalk and tie the reeds to both ends and put it downstream somewhere, I bet we could catch something for sure."
