Inculta looked at Siri, who gave him a barely-perceptible eye-roll. He switched his gaze to Astus, who stared back with calm dark eyes. He was on his own here. He looked back at Banescale and growled, "Tell me something stranger..." His golden eyes glittered. "Have you ever raided an Oviraptor nest?"
It took all of Astus' willpower not to snap out a snarky reply to the stranger's request to join the pack. But when he heard his brother's reply, he suddenly found himself choking back a cackle. It was perfect. Send the stranger to crush their old enemy's future just like the Oviraptors had once crushed Inculta's and Siri's, and in the process get him to prove just how much he wanted to join their pack.
Even more surprised now, Selena studied Aircrest for a moment. "Aircrest...I..." She found herself struggling for words, having been caught completely off-guard. "...I don't know," she finally sighed. "Anything can change, I suppose....What are you asking me, exactly?"
"Gotta have a little sadness once in a while so you know when the good times come."
