Killua had never treated Kuro like a pet necessarily. Instead, he treated the albino black mamba more similar to that of a friend. He didn't ask anything of the snake, and Kuro was basically allowed to do whatever it wanted while Killua wasn't around. The only reason why Kuro originally had been near Killua, was because the snake had been freezing in the snow and desperately needed food. Ever sense Killua had given the snake food, the reptile remained somewhat close to his side. There would be moments in time where Killua would go months without seeing the snake and already figured that the other was capable of taking care of himself and didn't really need help from him. The wildcat didn't baby the snake either and would let the snake slither off to go hunting for itself or whatever he felt like doing. He did have to make sure that the snake didn't accidentally bite someone while he wasn't looking, and that would probably lead to Kuro's death. He had no idea if the snake was capable of speech either, as the other had yet to utter a word to him since they met one another. Maybe he was capable of speech but did not see a reason to speak whatsoever and simply made movements and gestures with his head or muscles. Those that used to live in Snowbound with him would probably recognize the snake, but the only animal that had lived in Snowbound for a small amount of time that he knew was Stark, and the male had disappeared later on. He was certainly glad that his father figure was around now at least. The wildcat had no reason to fear any kind of snake, but if one were to attack him, he wouldn't hesitate to cut its head off. He did that once with an apprentice that lived in a clan where he was staying at the time, as the other had been afraid of the reptile. His metal claws made quick work of the snake's small bit of armor that they had.
Compared to when Killua first came across the full-grown albino black mamba, he had gained some weight and stood taller than he did when he was younger. This made it much easier for Kuro to curl himself around Killua without too many of his coils falling to the ground. The albino assassin wondered if the snake was hungry, but before he could conjure up any food for his companion, he heard movement that was coming toward him. His large ears immediately swiveled in the direction that he heard the steps coming from, immediately able to identify the individual as Rin, recognizing the movements in her pawsteps. He turned his sapphire blue gaze in the domestic cat's direction, and Kuro did the exact same thing, his red eyes looking at the feline carefully. He certainly didn't expect that question to be the first one that would be asked. Simply because he thought that they would ask where he got the snake or if it was dangerous. "His name is Kuro. I've known him for a while." The albino serval would answer calmly. After a second, another figure appeared, and it was his father figure. He wasn't sure if Stark had ever met the snake before, but he did know that he met his guard dog Mike a while back, which was probably a lot more intimidating for him to have an elephant size hellhound following him around. His sapphire blue eyes looked over Stark's condition like he usually did, checking up on him to make sure that he wasn't going to drop dead from not taking care of himself. The wildcat could easily read the canine's body language that he wasn't so sure about the snake.
Rolling his shoulders to adjust Kuro on him a little bit more, he would address the canine's concern. "He won't hurt you guys, as long as I tell him not to. He likes to stay warm, the only reason why he's wrapped around me right now. He also can't hurt me in any way." Killua stated calmly, hinting that the snake's venom would not have any effect on his body. Did he ever tell Stark he was immune to venoms and poisons? He wasn't sure if he remembered as it was such a long time ago. Lilja was the next to approach, and like the other two kept their distance and didn't trust the snake. Maybe if they had more knowledge of what he was capable of compared to the likes of Kuro, they would be keeping the distance away from him. Killua shrugged his shoulders in response to the question that the direwolf asked. "Rodents mostly. Like a snake, it doesn't really attack something that it won't be able to fit in its mouth unless provoked." Killua would explain why the larger animals wouldn't really have a reason to be afraid. A black mamba was most certainly not capable of devouring a wolf, a full grown malamute, or even a full grown domestic cat. A rabbit possibly, but he was fairly certain that they didn't have any rabbit members that weren't prey items. Speaking of food. Raising one of his paws, Killua would conjure up a dead mouse, one of decent size, and hold it directly in front of Kuro's face. It took a second, but the snake's red eyes were quickly able to locate the food, and it bent its neck, before making a quick strike to attack the food, missing Killua's paw in the process. As soon as the mouse was in its mouth, the albino black mamba coiled itself around the prey item and came to a rest on Killua's back where it could finish eating its small meal. Killua did not have an idea of how long the reptile had gone without eating, but from Kuro's appetite, it seemed like a while.
