The man did not put up any resistance. Tautukpik had not expected much; maybe some chiding, maybe some effort to correct him as that was the habit of adults versus children, but the only thing to transpire was the acceptance of the man. Tautukpik didn't really want the skin. He wanted something he could not grasp.
Kannoyak was willing to be the bigger person. He offered to hunt, naming something that Tautukpik had never heard of before. He was suddenly very angry! Giving the fur one more tug and one more shake of his head (which had quietly ripped the work of his mother) he dropped his hold and stepped stiffly back.
Whoever this man was - even if he was a good man, and even if the wind did not protest against him - Tautukpik needed him to understand.

No! No hunnin'. Stay 'way from aaka!He was bristling and putting on his bravest scowl, which was more cute than intimidating. Tautukpik was the man of the family now and he was under the impression that he had to protect his mother as well as his sisters, now.

Stay 'way! Or - or,or what? The boy gives a snort and a stomp and cannot think of what threat might be good.
Or I'll make Black Bear come! You won't like that!The trees around them shimmered with the faintest breeze, yet no voice carried that Tautukpik might hear.
