Great Bear Wilderness Hey there Delilah;

Luke easily picked up on the female's stiff answer, wondering at her unease and why she felt she had to be so guarded. But he did not think too long on it. Not all folks were as comfortable around strangers he was, and he did not feel the need to press her for her reasons, figuring she would warm up to him soon enough once she realized he was every bit as friendly as he portrayed.

Ever playful, Luke glanced around in an exaggerated way before answering. "I don't see any," he said, giving her a broad, bright grin and a wink. "They are around here in places, but they won't bother you usually," he continued, a bit more helpful. "We can find something to eat if you want," he offered, canting his head to the side inquisitively.
