His eyes look at her rather skeptically when she asks if it would be a problem, her nonchalance bothering him to an extent. Perhaps it was because she asked him if it was a problem, encouraging him to actually think about it. Most joinings, when it came to those leaving enemy clans, they usually said something along the lines of needing a change of scenery or disliking the group but seeing as Goldenluxury spoke up first, Bakugou releases a breath of hot air in an attempt to relax himself. He simply doesn't like it when joiners are ridiculously calm, perhaps used to the fact that most joiners were usually tense or amused in some way. It was actually because of Bakugou. The Reaver was overbearing at times, threatening just about any foreigner with his crackling flames. How they responded usually determined the type of personality they had and how well the ragdoll would get along with them in future. His ear twitches when the wild dog appears, a fem he has never met before speaking up and asking Thea what The Ascendants was like.

Colder, plainer, starry - sounds about right. It was definitely how Bakugou would have imagined The Ascendants to be like. All he knew about the place was that they liked their stars and constellations...and that they were the enemy. He looks at her idiotically point as a palm tree, unimpressed and about to insult her had he not been butted in again, this time by Feliks who rather simply explains what it is. The Reaver himself has never eaten or drank from the coconuts on this island but he knows he has had them before, just never in this body. He never minded them before flicking an ear in curiosity to the gryphon who continues to speak, noting that he had met her before and asking her why exactly she had left. A good question, he thinks. Most joiners from The Ascendants usually explained their reasonings, it had always been something that was just given for them to determine whether they were a force of good or bad. He would blame their rather lax and calm atmosphere on the fact that the three greeters before him had been Alek, Luca and Goldenluxury - members that approached things far more civilly than he ever would.

His ears press against his cranium at Thea's answer. Exile and death. Although the former Ascendants member left out the piece of information, he can gather that the death of this 'somebody' was likely the result of Thea's doing but whether or not she was responsible for the killing herself, he does not know. Bakugou doesn't particularly like jumping to conclusions. Being a pirate, he echoes in his mind, sounds cool. He doesn't really know if spending time around drunkards and cigarette-smelling creatures was something to encourage and look forward to. And it wasn't as if they were allowed to kill each other too. If that were the case, there would be far too much blood on his paws. He nods along to Feliks' explanation that they had simple and very obvious rules before watching the gryphon shift his wings and conclude his welcome to Thea. The Reaver looks at her again. "Hmph, well just to add what Feliks said about rules is that we do 'ave punishments for breakin' 'em and I won't 'ave your back if you get exiled from 'ere too."

After all, Thea was exiled for dramas that could get her exiled from The Typhoon. Seeing little point in staying around, he turns around and leaves without another word - not bothering to say goodbye because he'd likely see her lurking around somewhere.
