He listened, and he allowed his thoughts to formulate possible responses within the confines of his skull as everyone pitched in more of their two cents. The subject of parents was brought up, expectedly, and Danny would have preferred not to be present. It had been some time, sure, whatever, but Danny was still very much bitter and not a fan of recollecting the memory of a corpse. But that wasn't Alexandre's fault, he didn't know he didn't think, and he'd grown up for the most part with his mothers both alive, intact, and together. So surely, assuming the kid had parental guidance of any kind was natural and fair. Besides, the cub didn't look that roughed up or traumatized to be a wandering orphan. Clearly, the concept of being this far from home on his own wasn't settling in the mind of the cub, perhaps childhood innocence was to blame. Still, it would have been nice if his apparently remaining mother could keep a better eye on the kid. "You're too far from home. I'm not risking blame on my crewmates if she thinks we're holding you hostage. Does she know you're here?" The wolf responded simply, perhaps jumping into the worst possible scenario, but that's just what Danny did.
