The subtle confidence about the boy was reassuring, reaffirming everything that Austalis had said and further convincing Rune that he would not be disappointed in offering him a place within Secretua. It was a relief, really, to feel that way, to have a prospective member already lined out who was so attentive to everything he said, who actually looked rather eager at the chance to prove himself. Assuming he actually kept his word, which Rune had nothing so far that gave him any sense of doubt, he thought the match very well made. And he hoped the way the conversation had been going was enough to hint that the brown wolf was actually thinking along the same lines.
He stood, shook himself lightly, and glanced Rune's way, the pale grey wolf meeting the youth's teal gaze squarely as he saw the question within them.

"Just about everything," he began, following suit and rising to his own paws as he spoke. "Like I said, we're a small group. We're scattered thinly as it is, so any help is welcome." He paused briefly, taking a moment to study the boy's face, trying to gauge his feelings about the situation and whether he might have convinced him to seriously consider his pack. "Would you be interested?"
