It took some budging to get Cuirass out of the tree but when he did wake, he seemed to pour down and onto the ground. In a way, it reminded Kweku of a cougar. Predatory, controlled. Ah, did it remind him a bit of Sekhmet? Perhaps Asteraia really did have a type. In any case, he matched Cuirass' smirk with his own as his ears flickered forward at his comment. Stealing alphas? Ah, so that's who had been causing the commotion into all hours of the evening. Loud. He'd have to teach whatever alpha Cuirass had stolen a lesson - they didn't have the right to be loud in Asteraia. Sekhmet still needed to rest, as did the children of the plains - and Kweku. Sleep was few and far between, after all.
"I want to meet these alphas. See what they're made of. Is that why you wanted them?" Maybe Cuirass wanted to teach them something too. Did it really matter? Some part of Kweku had come because he liked the guy, anyway. They had a similar vein somewhere in them. They liked to
test. "I recruited four wolves. They came out of the Pharoah herself. I think that makes them important." He shrugged, not quite clever enough to make the comment as a joke or jab but rather, it made sense to him to think of that as recruiting. After all, it was hard work too. Making them, raising them, all of it. He just didn't have to sneak around in the night to do it was all. "Are you sure you want to meet them? They are small, quite loud. Like your alpha, really." See, he could relate to others. But how to recruit more like Cuirass? He had made the others with the Glorall woman too. Maybe he and Cuirass could bring them to Asteraia too. Perhaps not the mother though - she was feisty. But surely she wouldn't mind the children going, right? Sekhmet could host them...yes, it seemed completely logical.
With a roll of his shoulders, he moved to lay down. Or rather, to completely lounge and bathe in the warmth as Cuirass had done. Sure, he'd woken him up but that didn't mean they could take some time off to relax, right? Relax together. Kweku had likely been trapped with the children for too long if he had suddenly gotten the urge to be social. Then again, his position as Second in Command had made him fairly relaxed - he didn't need to prove he was the strongest man there anymore. Sekhmet had done it for him.
