YOU'LL KNOW I WASN'T JOKING WHEN YOU SEE THEM TOO
Argus was actually strategic about the visit. Bringing the skin of... something to drape across her back and cleverly hide the gaping hole in her front. It clipped along the collum of her throat, dark brown a glaring difference in her white fur that would've eased her blending into the terrain. She wasn't here to sneak in though, as much as she probably would after all the wish-wash was done to go talk with a few people. For now though- ughhh Politics.
Pincher was right in that Argus had no real reason to come here from a bystander's perspective. One could argue it was her rank as a striker. Acting as the policing force meant she had to be there to actually apologize and punish the person. It just so happened that guru had gone under all of their noses- enough to bring on her the wrath of the captain himself. Which was interesting- if Argus wasn't so invested in keeping snowbound at least neutral she would go off to push the captain's buttons herself. It was clear to the rest of the typhoon at least- that Argus had little care for the leader's rules unless it was to piss him off. Just because she hasn't done it yet was more with the lack of time too and not enough boredom to push buttons.
But Argus actually had a reason. The last traces of Kanito's killer- Gunstar's apprentice- Killua lived here. And he didn't remember- something was wrong with the assassin that she had met at that border, and while she had moved on from Kanitp's death if there was something she could do to help make amends with his ghost then she would. If not for Kanito- if not for Herself, then for Killua, who had obviously seemed to suffer memory lost.
She only knew this because of the broken way that killua had acted- trying to get information out of her on the border. He left too quickly for Argus to come up with anything concrete, but when he dropped guru off at the border- it left a clearer image. Whoever had tampered with his memories still had his claws in the other. Argus was nothing if not a puzzle solver. Killing two birds with one stone: Indulging in her own curiosity and helping put her old life's hate to rest- it made all the sense to come to along on the journey. Even if Pincher only saw her as extra muscle for the moment.
