Though Áki was independent to the core, much of his interactions with others were fueled on whatever sort of mood they brought to the table. The first impression he'd made had likely not been a great one, and this stranger returned his sass with ease, seeming quite irritated even if it was clear she wasn't frustrated with him persay. His crimson gaze followed her, a snort sounding in the air as his nose wrinkled visibly in reaction to her words, which stung like the lash of a whip. Though she followed her retort with a 'thanks', though it didn't seem entirely genuine. "Sure," he'd respond with a soft, though audible sigh.
He stood near her still, backing up a few steps as though waiting for her she might lash out with her teeth this time rather than her voice. And yet instead she explained herself to him, seeming to relax as she reoriented herself. She'd been born blind. It was hard to imagine, and yet he cocked his head to the side as she spoke, considering what such a life might be like. " Very interesting," he mused aloud, not an ounce of sarcasm in his deep tones -- it truly was strange to imagine having no sight at all, and having to depend on his other senses instead. There was certainly nothing wrong with being different, and in fact it intrigued him greatly. His own differences weren't quite so fundamental, and he realized she likely might never know the few things that set him apart from most others he had met. "This kind of life -- isn't it hard?" There was genuine curiosity in his accented voice as he spoke, wondering if this was the sort of conversation she was comfortable having, for he would quickly change the subject if she became agitated. "Oh -- forgive me. My name is Áki," the brute shook his head quickly. "I shouldn't think to pry without properly introducing myself."
