wow, that hurts

Watching intently as Sedna moved about the small hut, Kuroo smiled. He enjoyed her welcoming aura and pleasantries. Even though the way she spoke was a bit difficult to understand sometimes, he did his best to nod politely. If anything his mother had taught him, it was to be nice to everyone he encountered. While Sedna was turned away to grab the herb mixtures, he noticed the bundle of pups scrambling their way toward him with grunts. A light chuckle left his lips as he tried to keep his distance, but stayed in the doorway as a sort of barrier so they wouldn't escape. Each one was different in size and a myriad of colors, but a couple stuck out to him. The one similar to Sedna, Roo knew would be pretty when she grew. Then there was one that oddly appeared just like he did but the fur was a deeper brown. Tilting his head out of curiosity at the similarity, he would have no time to question before Sedna was applying the poignant mixture to his paw.

Wincing for a moment before he felt the relief on his wound, he turned to look at Sedna. "Domo arigato Senda," he spoke softly in his mid-baritone like that of Raijin's. Uncanny, right? Before he could say another word, the grip of claws climbing his back made his eyes widen. "Oi! Little one, you must be Fuji," Roo said, humor in his voice as he turned his head over his shoulder to peer at the tiny little girl who was climbing his back. "Are you sure she's not part opossum?" The boy joked to Sedna as he looked back over at her mother.
