He knew how he was perceived all too well. And he simply never chose to prove himself to be otherwise. Unlike Tlantli he didn't grow upset with the guffawed words and try to make himself anything than what he appeared. Because it was the words of the large male and the stone that had been fired that made him realize he wasn't alone with the two. He knew that the woman already had a disdain for him, something that seemed to travel through the Family. But it was simply those that did not know him and how he worked that felt that way. He had no doubt that she would hate him more for what he did. That was fine because he knew exactly what he was doing.

The simple act of kindness, not that it truly was since he was only aggravating an injury, combined with the display of worry and concern had thrown off the guard of the wolves larger than himself. They expected aggression and he was giving neither, at least not in the outright way that was expected. He played up the naive little child so well simply because that is what everyone expected of him. He got away with so much by it being figured that he didn't know better. So while it was weird to hear him termed as intelligent given the way he acted it was still an accurate description. The boy embraced the role that others always seemed to visualize him in.

"No!" The boy was quick to speak up against his own pack member to defend the two trespassers. He even reached out in a childish way to try and protect the two other males, one hand gripping Yorick's injured paw while the other sought to wrap around Darijus's neck. He attempted to tug both of them close to himself. He knew his actions would cause Yorick pain and he couldn't really care, especially as he tightened his grip on both males. He knew it would only be seen as the clinging of a child that was trying to keep and protect things that were trying to be taken away from him.

He looked out from between the two captured to stare at Tlantli. He didn't have any sort of silent communication system with her that he had with Janos. He didn't have her trust like he had Eris's. No, the small male only hoped she respected Eris's decision to bring him. That she would figure he would never betray the family. "Puppy hurt. Puppy need help. Let go please." His eyes pleaded with the woman. He wasn't pleading for their release at all, though any hearing his words and stumbling upon the seen would figure that was the likely reason. No, he was pleading for her to trust him. Why would he betray the Family after having alerted them. It wouldn't make sense to do such a thing. But it was more like his mind was already a few steps ahead of the current moment.

He needed both of them for the moment. He didn't have Janos with him to carry the injured party for him so he needed the other's friend to do so for him. He had his own little secret place to head to. It was just be easier on him if they transported themselves since he didn't have the strength to force it. He didn't know if Tla even knew he had an enclave. It was a task given to him by the leaders though they knew nothing of the location, only that he had found one. He wasn't certain if she had been alerted of that and maybe figured that he would try and get there.

The small boy kept a careful eye on the female as he got up. If he looked like he distrusted his pack member then most likely these two would trust him more. After all Tla had made it apparent that she cared nothing for them and was likely to respond in aggression so he Bastion showed himself to be the opposite then they just might listen to him and think he actually had their best interests at heart. it was all a part of his ploy. But really he was watching his back and making sure that the Crone wouldn't stop or try to interfere with his plans. He didn't need her running off and telling the leadership untruths just because she had no idea how his mind truly worked.

Bastion kept his hold on Yorick's injured limb but released Darijus. "Help." He whispered to the larger and uninjured male as he made to circle to the other side of him and constantly tugged on Yorick's leg to try and get the male onto the back of the other to make transport easier. "I know safe place. We go there. You hide." He spoke softly to the two males. He didn't leave Tla out though. He didn't really want to give away the location of his hidden place but he knew he had to earn her trust. With a sigh he looked back over to his fellow family member. The youth stared at the ground for a moment before slowly looking up at the female. "You follow? Make sure they no come back?" He was giving her the option to come with him. He was giving her a chance to catch a glimpse of him in is own world and to peer inside his mind. And really, right now he'd rather have her with him instead of returning back to the pack. He wanted to make sure that he would have a home to come back to. So if she was with him then she couldn't tell the others whatever story she might come up with. Now he could only hope that he had piqued enough of her interest for her to follow him and see just what he had in mind. After all, at the founding, he had showed he had no concern for ending the lives of the innocent as he had spilled the blood of the kits for the leaders without flinching in the slightest. He had even suckled the blood from his fingers.
