Hanako's ears flicked to the sides as she heard the crunch of approaching dire paws. She whipped her head around, curious to see if her biggest and bluest son was dropping by to pay his dearest mum a visit-only to suck in her breath between clenched teeth. Speak of the devil and he shall appear, apparently. He was on his way to fish, obviously, net clutched in his grasp as he held his wings tight against his sides. As though they could defend him against her presence, like she was someone he needed to be flighty around. Show trepidation. Her expression smoothened out with a bit of effort, a slow exhale as she turned to face him proper.
Was that it? All he had to say?
"Morning." She responded in turn, her tone stiff and the closest to awkward she'd gotten in a long long while. It was awful. "You're going to fish?" She didn't know why she'd phrased it like a question, the answer was obvious enough. "Well I guess I ought to join you then, before someone accuses me of being a slouch. Again."
