Element pondered the tone in which the pup said that he was okay. In fact, he just said 'yes'. But he didn't seem fine, and Element was no fool; he could scent the distress and anger from his breath and hair. But he didn't push the subject, as it wasn't his business, anyway; but he did know that there was something wrong with the puppy that he did not want to say.
Element nodded in the wolf pup's mention that he was a cat. "I am," he responded, wrapping his tail around his paws and licking his chest briefly. "And you're a wolf," he responded, looking at the puppy's rounded head and snout. It wasn't as long as a coyote's, which Element had thought he was at first - but he looked closer and saw the had shape, the ear size, and realized that the largeness wasn't that of a coyote, but that of a puppy. He smiled at the youngster, thinking of how he himself was older than that of which he conversed. He didn't mind, however, no - it was intruiging to see what people thought inside their minds, whether they were big or small. And he did love talking to puppies.
