Ears tilted back and he stared at all of those arriving, "your weaknesses must become strengths. you're only as strong as your weekest," the serpent would turn his eyes to those that had arrived such as Surreal and the other boy, as to who's name he was unaware, eyes trailed them carefully and he twisted his head curiosly, "would you like to train this day? Or have you come to make observations?" the words were almost implicitly coy but they lacked the gusto he normally spoke with. He was not out to instigate any inner pack turmoil. For he understood the levity, with perfect clarity, of what was happening. The thought of losing sickened him, thus he was even more prompted to remember the cost when he went in for the big challenge.
