He wouldn't have gone as far to call it uncertainty, but Ronan didn't think Tethys knew what she wanted. Or maybe even what it felt like to want in general. Not basic needs like hunger and rest, but she was so blasé about it all that it made him just assume that she was stumbling through life- and naturally that kinda pissed him off. He wasn't even really sure why, couldn't quite put his paw on it, but it fit. He'd pretty much been lecturing her the whole time, was only just short of raising a paw and pointing at her accusingly whilst he went off.
He found himself scoffing at her question, adventure? As if. He hadn't come all this way to search but he found himself looking all the same, out of a sense of self-preservation? Or pondering the what ifs?
"No. I was- looking for something. Thought it might be here."Ish. He was starting to suspect it wasn't at all, and that ought to be a good thing and yet it only made him feel... a cold sort of bitterness. Jealously maybe?
