Unfortunately, he had spent too long trying to decide if he should just leave before she noticed him and began walking back in his direction. Each of her strides, irritatingly crunching loudly with each step on the fallen leaves, had to be at least three or four of his, and he felt that prickle of annoyance wash over him again. But his facial expression remained fairly neutral, perhaps with just the slightest pinch between his brows. She spoke to him in a friendly enough tone, offering her name, though he was a little surprised she was speaking in the common tongue. Hage thought a moment, feeling like he had probably seen her around, but given the number of wolves in the pack that he had seen around it was hard to remember specifics. One day he'd remember who was who, but that day was not now. "Akizora Hageshī." He was polite enough, if a bit curt, perhaps moreso than usual given the annoyance he was already experiencing. But that wasn't her fault, and he wouldn't take it out on her no matter what he felt. Unless she ended up deserving it; that was still to be determined. There was a metaphorical itch under his fur - since he couldn't air his frustrations verbally without most likely offending Sakura, there was the desire to release the annoyance he was feeling physically. And maybe (definitely) his pride was taking a hit from the obnoxious height difference between them, so he wanted to make himself feel better by proving that just because he was smaller, he wasn't less capable of anything she could do. While he generally wasn't a fan of physical violence, a friendly spar didn't push that boundary too much. "You up for a spar?" Word count: 1,129/1,500 |
When Hageshī's speech is in italics it means he's speaking in Japanese
