Kai's eyes continued to wander over the weaponry attached to the wall of the communal room, thinking over how sharp the blades must be. He didn't use many weapons himself other than those he already had to hand, namely his claws and fangs. Hand to hand combat, as it were, was so much more appealing to him, getting close enough to your enemy to see into their eyes, to hear the huff of their breath, to smell the blood as it is spilt... Just thinking about the heat of combat caused his heart to pick up its pace a little. But it was then that he heard quiet footsteps closeby. Turning his head quickly, letting his eyes fall upon the individual who would end his solitary time in the communal den. And it just had to be her...
His eyes narrowed as he watched the two-tone female and he snorted at the same time as she did regarding his presence. It seemed both felt the same way about seeing the other. Kai's feral eyes followed her movements as she sat as far from him as possible. Good, he thought, let her keep out of my way. He returned his attention to something else - anything else, but within seconds, a loud metallic ringing noise sounded over the room. And then again. Inhaling deeply, Kai sighed in that irritated way of his, returning his attention back to the female as she sharpened her blade. Another snort left him. Every time she dragged the stone against the metal, it drove deeper through him, angering him just that little more that his peaceful time had been so disturbed."Can't you do that somewhere else? Like in your den, perhaps? The sound of sharpening a blade had never bothered him before, not once. Perhaps it was simply because it was her doing the sharpening. His body had become a little more tense now as he watched for her reaction across the room.
