Laika gave a warm smile. "Well, as you witnessed, I am absolutely horrible at fishing, so yeah, maybe you could teach me?..."  She trailed off, shooting him a quizzical glance as his eyes seemed to be locked on her face. Once again, she took it lightly, continuing on in her speech. "I need to learn because of the scarcity of land prey. This might be Silver Creek's biggest food source and I want to be able to participate in helping feed the pack as much as possible. So if you do have the time, that'd be great." 

She finished and gave him another smile - this one sheepish. Usually she was one of the better hunters but when it came to aquatic prey she failed horribly. She studied him for his reaction, eyes wide -- like usual.
