Do what they think that they must

What, what? There was someone watching, waiting. He knew it before they knew it. The forced introduction would have caused the black behemoth to leap out of his fur, if he wasn't so practiced at not showing fear or surprise. Being surprised, caught off guard usually resulted in pain. Slowly, feigning indifference he turned his gaze on the nearby feminine figure.

May's instinct was to immediately size up those around him, his nose flared, testing the air. This one was family, yellow eyes inspected the female, starting from the paws and working his way to her face. No, this one wasn't familiar, still family. His mind turned to the pleasantries required. Hello. The word came out as a low growl. He slowly stepped his way toward the light female. Are you alone? lips upturned in a forced smile, low growl replaced with a voice of curios sincerity, edged in a slight quake. If she was alone, he was safer, in his mind.
