Man to Man

It didn't take very long for the larger man to show up, and he could tell that things were very much still unsettled between the two. Bass couldn't help but smirk, it would seem that he really did a number on the alpha of these lands. Heh, he wasn't used to doing that, but it was quite clear to him that there was no prospect of warmth coming from the darker beast. No use in pleasantries, as the man got right to business. "Valentine, a pleasure as always," he rumbled, not rising from his seated position as the other man stood. His head tilted slightly, yellow eyes meeting his blue ones. "And yes, I did come here because of that. Although I think that what happened was between the girls, I did want to come and make sure that you thought the same as well. From what I heard the girl from my pack brought it on herself, and it doesn't surprise me that your daughter took a chunk out of her." He said, a muted chuckle leaving his lips. Head shook back and forth slowly, ears flicking on the top of his head. "I come back from visiting my family to all of this, it looks like I really do have my work cut out for me. Seems like Lillie has caused a bit more trouble than she can dig herself out of, but at least now she is determined to become a better fighter. Evangeline sure did a number on her." Surly this is not what the other alpha expected, but Bass was a touch amused. Seeming to just completely ignore Valentine's uneasy mood, he kept talking. "I assume that she came home and did a little victory dance, eh? Or did she brag to her siblings first?" Bass-the-dad was asking more than Bass-the-alpha. If that happened to one of his kids, he could only imagine the bragging rights that a fight like that would give them. "Seems like your children are already well versed in fighting, which doesn't surprise me. But I also came here for another reason..." he said softly, the thoughts of fighting leading him to another train of thought. "I came to apologize for our last meeting, and to say that the joint training is still open if you wish to do so." Bass wasn't expecting to walk away from this all buddy buddy with Valentine, but maybe a more neutral alliance than an actual pact.
