but such was life.
he watched the scene from the shade, ocean eyes peering curiously at the siblings, only recognizing cleo out of the trio. she had seemed nice enough when he'd washed up on the shore, but also strangely mature for her age. she certainly wasn't like him. junji's gaze moved to sylvina, head tipping at her comment, then looking to pax. it was... strange, what he was doing. splashing in the waves, paws slapping at the fish swimming around him. it was kind of funny; enough that it elicited a small laugh from the child.
truth be told, he wasn't exactly the most social of creatures. his mother and father had been the most company for his entire life, but this place was a huge shift. it had been a few days, but he still sort of reeled from the sheer amount of people residing in this place. he supposed the adrenaline or... numbness had helped him the other day, and he still felt that slight emptiness now, but that wouldn't stop him. if he was to live here, he needed to get involved, right? he needed to be good. he needed to be the angel his mother wanted him to be.
a deep breath. junji stood and approached the three, eyes drifting over pax as he continued what he was doing. he offered them all a smile, coming to pause at the edge of the water. "hi," the child greeted, a bit awkward. "what're you doing?"
