Stone Circle skip the sun, stay with the moon

Nikai was surprised she remembered his name, though mostly because he didn't know hers. He thought of asking, but then he didn't want to seem rude and so he ended up not asking. He would remember along the way, at some point, he was sure... He glanced at her when she complimented Valette and smiled, though didn't know a response right away. He didn't want to reflect badly on Valette by giving the woman another compliment, but neither did he want to seem like he agreed. He had never even contemplated measuring how well wolves were at hunting. So he just smiled.

She offered him the rabbit, but he shook his head. "Maybe we can put it in the cache together?" he asked thoughtfully, since he had just eaten something before departing from the den. He had been hunting to train himself, not to sate his hunger, and he was pretty sure the rest of the fam didn't need any immediate food either. It was probably best to cache it, if the ground was unfrozen enough someplace to bury it.
