Mount Apikuni it's burning you alive

"Hello?" Was this a question? He didn't respond, perhaps confused by the context of her singular word, but the one-earred wolf was interested in her geniality, so took a few steps closer. His head was now level to his shoulders, and his eyes shone warily, with no kindness to speak of, but he was not afraid of the immense female and would be civil as long as she was. He momentarily observed her thick tawny coat, blazed tenderly like the leaves before winter, and when his acid-yellow eyes returned to her face, he could see that her eyes did not quite match one another.

A thought played in the back of his mind, where Jinx had told him to cause as much trouble with this particular wolf's pack as he could, but then he thought better of it, considering that it hadn't yet been long enough since their last skirmish which he had almost unwillingly gotten himself involved in. Still, he was incredibly prepared be at war with this female, despite her seeming lack of want for the same thing. He imagined that he could not trust her face, no matter how innocently neutral it appeared.

Though he thought to mention the Northstar "invasion" in some way, he secondly thought better of it, and instead settled on other words. (And even then, he was only speaking because she had first.) "I am not looking for trouble this afternoon," he rasped, perhaps idiotically, as she hardly seemed the type to instigate despite her size.
