Charon's response in relation to Peregrine was clipped and vague, but it still made Floki stew. There was something about that family -- they were unpredictable, that was for sure. He shook his head, forcing himself to let it go as Charon forged on with a different topic.

But he mentioned Wildfire's nickname again and Floki's ears wilted, splaying out to the side as he processed what, exactly, Charon was saying. He didn't know the details of the attack on Amekaze, just that it had happened -- and when he had arrived on the scene, he had felt a sickening sense of déjà vu. Charon's statement only confirmed his worst fears; that Lazarus was like Goober, and Amekaze had suffered the same fate as Wildfire.

He sucked in a sharp breath, looking away from Charon for a long moment. Obviously he was no expert in this area -- what he had done was make Wildfire feel like she had to run away from Moonspear. He chewed on the inside of his lip, her gold-eyed face swimming in his mind's eye and bringing on a wave of heartache he hadn't felt in a long time. "Just be there for her," he finally murmured, turning his snout towards Charon but not meeting his gaze. "I tried to do that for Wifi, but I suggested that we just be friends -- I dunno, I didn't want to hurt her, after Goober already had. But I didn't know what to do." He blinked, finally peeking up at Charon's face. "Just make sure she knows that you love her and support her. Don't leave her."
