[/html]Claudius nodded once Saqui spoke up, glad that he'd be able to demonstrate his own skills and show her around. Although he didn't mind asking for help, especially given his penchant for learning, he did not deny that he was a prideful beast and would prefer to do things his way if he thought it was best. While he was not uncompromising in his ways, he was glad that he'd be able to take the lead on this. Moreover, as the sub-leader, he felt it was his responsibility to show Saqui around especially since he was the one who had accepted her into the tribe. In this manner, he felt somewhat responsible for her--just as he had for Matteo and still, to this day, for Gemma.[/html] WC: 308
They set off at a comfortable pace and although Claudius liked to use his long two legs to move quickly through the forest that surrounded the village, he recognized that Saqui might not have the same height advantage as he. If anything, he always remembered his sisters complaining that he walked too fast as a child; that still would likely hold true if they were still around.
It was easy to lose track of time, especially since he tended to point out things every so often, sometimes stopping to show Saqui something. His crafting skills required a lot of knowledge about flowering plants, so he liked to point them out where they still bloomed or gesture to the general area when they weren't. Once they arrived, Claudius gestured to the dilapidated fence and stepped into the sunlight, enjoying the feeling of the warm sunbeams on his fur.
"O-okay, wuh-we're... here," he said, and then chuckled quietly. Obviously. He glanced around, hoping to find the plants to impress Saqui with how well he’d paid attention, but he couldn’t spot any right away. [html]
