Feeling frustrated and anxious was nothing at all unfamiliar to Lark, though in comparison to Lillianna he seemed to be doing quite splendid. Even if it felt like he was anything but. Abaven was growing more depressing and quiet since his father's absence; admittedly he missed the time he spent with his family, even the Italian lessons that he had never particularly loved.

The rapids had become a comforting place for him. Once, they had seemed treacherous and uncrossable, but thanks to Calypsei's help he knew they were little more than an obstacle, and one he could pass easily at that. Of course it'd taken him so practice, and he knew his mother would nearly have a heart attack if she saw him crossing, but he looked forward to seeing the impressed look that he knew Bass would try to hide. It nearly made him grin, the faintest of expressions, but seeing someone out of the corner of his eye forced the smile away.

His face was quite blank as he peered at her as he approached the side of the river. She wasn't in good shape - her face seemed like it'd been.. quite roughed up, to say the least, and her fur was plastered with plant matter. His nose wrinkled as he took a few steps closer, though he maintained his distance. "What kinda mess did you get into?" he'd ask bluntly as he drew closer. It reminded him of when his dad had returned home from Imperium, only this time he felt far less upset -- only mildly curious about this girl he barely knew. "Looks pretty bad."
