Kaija had never been the most wary of anything either; she was one to head toward potential danger rather than away from it, and this strange metal structure and whoever might be lurking inside was no exception. Once she realized it was someone she was familiar with, she only grew more receptive to the idea of company. A similar grin touched her own lips as she drew closer, keeping a distance that couldn't be construed as anything but friendly.
"Don't worry, I've forgiven you," Kaija admitted lightheartedly. Even as a kid she hadn't really fully believed in the idea of claiming territories and though she remembered being frustrated at a trespasser in her home, it was hard for her to identify with the wolf she'd been then. If anything, the recollection made her laugh at how ridiculous their encounter had been. She wondered briefly if he'd managed to find Aoife, but she decided it probably didn't matter now.
"Not a fan of the north?" Not that she was getting off so easy today. The bitter wind was relentless coming in from the sea and the ship offered little protection from the wind, and Kaija felt a shiver ripple down her back. Slowly she drew closer, hoping she might be able to sneak into the doorway. The male seemed open to her company and she had no reason to believe he'd try to run her off. She wondered what the ship was like inside - in the shadows she could see a long corridor that opened up to various rooms on the side, like a cave but far more symmetrical. She'd definitely never seen anything like it before and she was curious what oddities lay inside.
"I've been hanging around the north for a while now. Left Valhalla over a year ago now, I think. What about you? Oh - my name's Kaija. Don't think we had much time for introductions when we met before." Probably not, but it was hard to say for sure. Either way she was surprised to see him this far north too and she couldn't help but wonder what had brought him all this way.
