Kansas was glad he had not startled the man—it was probably good that he had kept his distance initially, just in case. Since his fight with Heath, he'd been significantly more cautious around strangers than usual. The circumstances with the hybrid had been much different than this chance, neutral encounter, but running into any strange wolf was cause for him to be on his guard. He was sure this would cool down over time, however.
The gray turned slightly to face Kansas, and the ease of the motion put the him a bit more at ease. The smile made him even more comfortable, and he was happy to be invited to look at the object in the other's hands for himself. Kansas grinned, moving around the man so that he faced him. It seemed more respectable than staring over his shoulder. The cream coated boy looked at the stone, at the shell intricately traced upon its surface. He hadn't read much about fossils - he was more interested in fiction - but the other's explanation made perfect sense. "That's amazing... It's beautiful." The male's tones made it sound like he knew what he was talking about. Perhaps he was a reader, too. "My name is Kansas," he added rather offhandedly, still inspecting the fossil.
