He had been distracted by his own thought process and looking away from the fire not realizing that someone had approached. Her voice made his ears twitched as he returned to his senses to see her, a soft smile forming itself onto his maw realizing that the little one was speaking Gaelic... Something he was familiar with but for different reasons, he took a deep breath as he returned the greeting in a polite manner "Dia dhuit!" A gentle smile on his maw then she inquired how he had made the big fire, his smile faltering in that moment as he glanced over to the dancing flames feeling his skin crawl at the mere sight of it. "Well, that is a very good question. I gathered plenty of wood only to use some flint and steel to start it... It is very warm but you must be careful, fire should never be played with." His gaze lingered as he added in a slightly distant voice "It's dangerous..."
The sound of someone else's voice caused him to turn away from the fire and he would smile at Séamus "Why hello there." His tail flicked slightly to the sides listening to the other speak before responding with a curt nod "Ah, I'm glad that the fire is good. I just hope my small setup is as well. I am doing rather well, I'm still adjusting to the sudden changes but I know it'll be fine. What about you?" There was a pause realizing that he had never introduced himself to Séamus or met the other until now, he proceeded to do so with a friendly nod "Ah, pardon me. I don't believe that we have properly met. I am Winterhymns Pendragon though feel free to call me Win or Winnie. Whatever suits your fancy," A soft chuckle left his maw with a tilt of his head though upon the arrival of Drayden his attention shifted.
He was inquiring what da dhuit meant and Winter couldn't help but reply with a low purr "It means hello in Gaelic, I believe." He recalled how his ex husband had used it several times whenever greeting or speaking to an ally, he was usually uneasy at the mere memory but having people like Rowena and Séamus there to potentially be associated with Gaelic was relieving to the legate. He preferred them a lot more than the other association and he could only be relieved that the other was... Well, dead. He broke away from these thoughts of his as Drayden greeted him and he'd chirp back in response "Hello Drayden." The presence of his clanmates were comforting him despite his unease towards the fire, he would try to ignore it and enjoy the night.
