He was glad that this impromptu meeting wasn't awkward. He had to admit he hadn't seen Liam around much- he hadn't been at the feast or the pack meeting when Colibri was attacked and he was sure he hadn't spotted him at the building site when he'd cruised by on his way out. In that way, he thought it might be a little awkward to converse with him, because of his lack of involvement. However, there seemed to be an optimistic, sensible nature to the male that reminded Temeraire slightly of his father. While Saul was far too much of a worrier, there was at least a sociability about him, a need to surround himself with others and have a good time at least. Liam's words caused a small chuckle from the boy, who shook his head good naturedly. " Bran was in the water forever before he made his move. I suppose its a learned skill." He conceded, thinking of his uncle's comical pose- spear raised in the air, opposing arm raised also and head bowed intently looking at the water.
His attention was claimed by the smaller of the two and he felt a grin tugging his lips up. She was a cute one and her insecurities were endearing. He didn't think he'd ever been concerned with how others saw him- he was far to preoccupied laying with Elias and getting into all sorts of mischief with his uncles. Perhaps it was a female thing, the need to look good to others. "Of course not!" He exclaimed, the outrage in his voice belied by the tugging grin on his lips. "Your fur will grow back, I know it will." He reassured, leaning over to give the girl a bump with his own shoulder. He wished Sura were a bit older and less rude and demanding, she would have been a good friend, perhaps like Caroline might become.
Excitement seemed to intensify as the trio sat there, Liam's patient hands drawing the line in. Tem couldn't help holding his breath as the last stretch of line was tugged from the water, opening his eyes to see a wriggling fish on the end. He leapt up with a yelp of surprise and grinned back towards Liam as he spoke. "You caught something!" He exclaimed, although the words were mostly pointless. Leaning over, Teme tried to snag the fish and hold it still, black hands attempting to grip the fish around the middle and hold it.
