He wasn't surprised that she hadn't noticed him - there were quite a few there, and he was just another rogue on the field to most. Aeron would note that Sibelle's words were spoken in a quiet manner. If it hurt her, he would rather her not waste her words on him - but she would continue to answer him regardless. He felt bad about voicing his inquiry as to where he was, because that was a question that needed her to speak - but it was good to know that she was safe here. Close with the pack's leader, she would be cared for closely. He would visit her as often as it felt right, and even more so if he wasn't given a hint or bug off.
It seemed that she wanted her forest back even still - one loss had not deterred her from her goal. Perhaps the next time, he could be of more use. Or win it for her. Fighting was not something that scared him, he wasn't known for feeling much outside of her anyways.
A few moments of silence would tick by, and the brute caught a hint of the awkwardness between them. He didn't mind silence, but he didn't like when that strange feeling settled and the two of them felt like strangers. Being hated would be better than being a stranger to Sibelle at this point - if she didn't know him, it meant that she had forgotten, didn't it? Yet when she spoke again, filling in where his doubts were starting to collect, he would be surprised at her suggestion.
Bi colored eyes would widen, surprised at the invitation to stay within Covari. He was positive that he would be a hassle - that she knew that he would be such - and yet she had been the one to casually suggest that he stay. "I vould like to stay." He said, perhaps too quickly - he should have given her a moment to take back her words, to think it over. He should have double checked, asked whether she was sure - whether she needed more time, or more space. But Sibelle had always been honest with him, always. He trusted her - and if she asked him to be here, then she really didn't mind. "It is vhere you are, after all." He nearly sighed with relief - acceptance felt good. But it didn't necessarily mean that she forgived him.
