The amount of people that suddenly arrived to see him come home, of course, was a bit stunning. He blinked as more and more people filed in, surrounding him, talking to him- some of which started to batter at him.
It brought a smile to his face. To know he was missed.
His fur fluffed on end at the first approached- after, Georgia, of course. It then settled flat, a sharp grin touching his face and he leaned on one set of legs, his tail snapping and swaying behind him. There was an unfinished fight, however, that could wait. "I didn't think y' would ever come home, t' be fair." He responded, that sharp grin snapped over his face. He then nodded at Ry's welcome, but slowly twitched his ears, shifting his paws a bit before answering. "Warning? Before what, kicking your ass or leavin'?"
Of course, there was still feelings of spite surrounding Ry's.. predicament. Namely the, well, Pittian predicament. He wasn't quite sure if it was even safe anymore, at this point, forget following in their mindset. Slowly, he lost his grin. Being as lost in thought as he was, Nat was able to launch herself at him pretty easily. The lion looked down at the other, bringing the smile back up, his ears flattening just a bit. A solid nod came from him, his tail laying still and leaf mane laying flat. "I thought a lot about it." He prompted, raising one paw and gently and playfully pushing the other off.
His eyes shifted back towards Georgia, and with a tilt of his head, he grunted softly. "My old body had a leaf mane too. It just took time to grow out- like a normal mane. I dunno though. I like the redder colors though." He said, feeling almost at ease talking about it. He sighed gently, ears twitching gently, before looking at the next set of people approaching. Georgia, at least, was a very nice.. change of pace. From this craziness of relatives. He blinked once again, shaking his fur out. Lu didn't say much else, or offer any other greeting- so what he did was, at the very least, dip his head to them. They hardly spoke before today, so he wasn't sure if there was space to speak.
But the drumming of thick paws made his head swing. A sharp inhale came from him just before impact, then when Sea slammed into him, they rolled in the sand. He cursed sharply as he hit the ground, the air pushed from his lungs. He winced at Sea, before speaking. "Holy shit, Sea, that hurt YOU KNOW?!" He exclaimed, before reaching up and aiming to push Sea off of himself. If successful, he would sit up and shake his mane out. "And yeah, we did both change. Though I like my changes better." Elduin grinned, winking at Sea. He was just kidding.
As Michael approached, his attention shifted to the other. His ears twitched, then snorted sharply at the way he cuffed his cousin over the ears. He then cleared his throat, giving a respectful nod to the older member of the Typhoon. He wasn't sure what to say to Michael- it has been a while since they had spoke, he thinks, ever since Michael had gotten lost in the jungle. "Hey now. I didn't get lost. I'm not that dumb, you think of that?" His tone was light and playful, a grin spread on his face. "And, hey, good to be back. Elduin Roux it is."
Next came.. a tiny member. About these jaguars and lions, of course. His eyes had a hard time finding the squirrel- but it came rather quickly as the telepathic thoughts ran through his head. Elduin didn't like that. At all. His ears flattened, but he looked down, forcing a polite grin on his face. "Thanks, I suppose." And finally, his eyes lifted to find the last of the cousins- for the moment, Elduin couldn't remember if there was more- and gave an awkward wave back. But, slowly, he looked about, and one question left his mouth.
"Where's.. my mothers?"
"SPEECH"
