Anthemtalon's head lifted lazily when he first noticed movement. Angelembrace, if he remembered correctly. He hadn't seen another lizard since his joining; one like him, at least. Being amongst mammals, things that he could consider prey, it was confusing to him at times. If it spoke, it wasn't food, was his simple way of determining who he was to live amongst and who was good to eat. And smell, smell helped quite a bit in order to figure out what could and could not be munched. He blinked and watched as the rotten goat was prodded at; not that he quite understood the undertone of the gesture.
"Thank you," Anthemtalon garbled when the compliment finally registered in his head. Proud he was of his catch, even if most of it had been munched by himself during the process of dragging it back to the pile of food. As much as a smile as a lizard could manage was presented on his face, and his tongue flickered.
More movement caught his attention, and his head sluggishly turned towards Aphra. Another flick of the tongue, another blink as his face swiftly went blank once again. Realizing that he was being spoken to, being looked at, he pushed himself a little more upright. Not with the rest of the food? Ruin? Get out? Tongue flickered again as Anthemtalon hauled himself onto his talons. "Mmm." The komodo monitor huffed, and shuffled on over to his catch. Jaws settled around a leg of the goat, and he tugged it about half his own body length from the pile. There it was dropped again. "Helped. Am helping. Mhm."
He couldn't think of anything to do about the smell, and his maw snapped and his tongue flicked to settle again after moving the rotten meal. "Very tasty. Should eat. Helpful. Good. Smell nice? Don't understand." It smelled nice to Anthemtalon, at least, and the lizard began to settle again on the ground as he spoke.
