Bastion had been the exact same way as Reaper when he had first got to this land. Janos had scouted ahead then sent back word. As soon as Bastion had regrouped with the older male they had joined in on the foundation of a pack. The one where he was still at. One that had garnered him quite a bit of respect. He still didn't know the lands that well but he knew enough about the area around where the pack was located that he felt fine with heading out by himself. So even though he might not know too much the entire lay of the land he was happy with the way his life currently was.
The small male was happy to turn his attention to the small pup that waddled about as Janos played guard as he seemed to usually do. For now Basti was just having fun with a new toy and couldn't be bothered that the older male wasn't playing as well. No doubt once Bastion tired of the current joys of watching the pup then he would forget all about Enigma and turn his attention elsewhere. For now having an actual puppy was a thrill to him because of Enigma's lack of coordination. That right there was amusement enough for the small boy. The pup would take a few steps before tripping over his own paws and stumbling.
Just that act had Bastion giggling and clapping his hands repeatedly. The small male's tail wagged happily as Enigma finally made it over to him and he reached down to stroke the pup's back. Before any words of praise and encouragement could be given he heard Janos growling and looked up. Bastion's gaze clearly read of confusion as he looked up at Janos before glancing around to see what was going on. He'd had his entire focus on Enigma that he hadn't been paying any attention at all to his surroundings, but then again he trusted Janos to take care of any upsets for him.
When his eyes finally landed on another male just standing there and staring at him he was surprised to see who it was. Bastion quickly forgot all about Enigma in order to get up and run over to his brother to try to wrap his arms around him and hug him. "Reaper!" He called out his brother's name excitedly as he made to try and hug him tightly then pull away. "Pretty?" The question was posed as he did a little spin, showing off the optime form that he had never had when he was with his siblings. Just like he had done with others Bastion was attempting to get someone else to stroke his ego and compliment him. For now Janos and Enigma weren't on his mind as he made to catch up with his brother. Of course he wasn't considering giving up Janos for Reaper. Oh no, Janos was a finer specimen by far. Still, Bastion had never expected to see any of his family again. First Twilight had shown up and now Reaper. Bastion was just racking up slaves. Of course that was under the assumption that Reaper planned on staying with Basti just as Twilight had desired to do.
