When he arrived, he was not the first to heed her call and that irked him; but Kaluktuk had been busy with a patrol of the upper reaches, places where they had yet to really explore as a village, and it had taken him longer than anticipated to return. Now he came upon Dutch with Ariadne, and they were both invested in something further from them.

Kaluktuk came drifting to Ariadne's side just as Dutch was departing to give chase. He watched the man go, more focused on the man than the caribou; and then he looked to Ariadne and before she could stop him, gave her a blatant, possessive nip to her cheek (like a sneaky kiss) and then peeled away to help.

He went charging after the other hunter, then deviated his path so that he could also help herd the creature. If it veered off course, he would be there to harass it back towards Dutch or any other hunters that appeared.
