Taika was respectfully courteous, and her actions gratified Kairos. Where before the impurity of her blood had sparked disdain, the tri-hued female was suddenly given to displaying mercy towards the strange pup. In response, the other quit her play-bow to resume a normal sitting posture, happiness exuding from every pore, brightening the day around them. The girl recognised its propensity to become ingratiating but, so far, she found the sweet disposition rather charming and unique. As Taika cocked her head and halted her pant to speak, Kairos set about listening to what was being said with an almost peaceful expression. This was wrested from her however when, mid-sentence, the girl broke off to bound around the goddess. Kairos did not follow her motions, and only turned again when she sensed the other had grown still, attempting to positively reinforce wanted behaviour by granting the other her attention. Taika fell once more into a friendly posture, eyes glimmering, as she poked fun at Kairos.

Let it not be said that a goddess has no sense of humour. Smirking lightly, the spawn of Elijah and Stella licked her lips and flexed her claws into the ground, scratching up the snow, “Yours is an important and cherished role and, because of your actions today, you shall live where others perish. Many of my most intricate works owe you their thanks, as do I,” she punctuated her words with a respectful dip of her head – a rather rare move on her part – before grinning broadly, “You are right. I have moved to become one of you, and yet I am not familiar with your ways of recreation. I somehow feel that there is no other wolf in these lands better suited to teaching me how to play than you, though, so I am not worried.”

In an odd, rather jerky fashion, Kairos mirrored the other's stance and dropped into a stiff bow, tail given to waving lightly, “Is this right?”

She humoured the other, her mood biddable, and yet a certain darkness in her black and blue eyes should have stood as a warning that she was unpredictable and not to be trifled with. Hopefully the naïve young femme who invited her into jest recognized danger when she saw it, otherwise the chances of her getting herself into trouble were rather alarming.
