If he was being perfectly honest, he hadn't expected to be approached so soon. The child was prepared to wait a couple days with his newfound snake friend but it appear that will not be the case. But before that, the child found himself in a bit of a predicament. Maybe... Maybe this snake didn't know where it was going after all. Maybe it was just minding its own business and Koda decided to tag along. Pouting as he mentally hummed a tune he made up on the spot, he turned to his companion who seemed to be paying him no mind. Sparkling blue optics blinked several times before the child shifted into a more comfortable crouching position. His long tail curled around his fluffy form as he rested his head on his paws, staring at the reptile almost completely submerged in the sand. The sun was incredibly hot and he could only imagine how nice the shade must be in the forest before them, but his snake friend doesn't appear to be moving anytime soon. Invisible brows furrowed in mild concern as he tilted his head. Lifting his tail, he waved it in front of the snake and on occasion poked the small areas of its body that wasn't covered by sand. Smiling as he continued to tease his companion, he quickly stopped when it turned and hissed a warning at him. Small rounded ears flattened against his skull as a sheepish smile pared his maw as he ducked his head in a submissive manner. It had a short fuse, huh? The complete opposite of Koda who's fuse seemed to stretch on forever. Although he didn't speak 'snake,' he could tell from the hiss and body language that was a "shut up and sit still" hiss. It could have just asked nicely. Was the hiss necessary?
It didn't matter anyways. Someone seemed to be approaching which led Maekoda to sit up immediately. His heart began to race in his chest as the excitement of meeting another person raged war against his timid nature of meeting someone for the first time. They were much bigger than him too which made him even more nervous. But he couldn't back down now! He pretty much trekked across the desert with his reptilian companion to find Death and War - whatever that meant - and he was so close. It was a gut feeling. As the canine drew near, Koda found his anxiety rising further and further until it threatened to pool out of his mouth. Suddenly, he was aware of the vastness of his surroundings and felt incredibly small. His tail tip twitched nervously and he looked to the snake by his side. It seemed unfazed with the series of developments, which made the child feel a little better; it grounded him. Soon enough, the golden retriever was standing before him and had asked a question. He... He seemed friendly, Koda did his best to use that fact and trick himself into thinking everything was okay as he stared up at the stranger. He continued to stare for a few more seconds before remembering he had asked a question and scrambled to write a response in his notebook. "my name i am i'm maekoda! it's nice to meet you! i'm looking i would be very grateful to you if you could point me in the direction of War and Death." He was about to take up the notebook but stopped and continued to write. "I've been walking for a long time... Can you tell me where I am please?" When he finished, he clicked his pen and quickly placed the book at Mirio's paws before scurrying away shyly behind the snake who kept its position in the sand. Crouching, he used his large paws to cover his face though his ears were angled attentively forward. He hadn't noticed Jiyu join them due to his face being covered and the pumping of blood in his ears.
