Janius flexed his wrist and rubbed at his forearm. Both his lycanthropy and prompt magical healing had got rid of any visual evidence, but it was still a little sore. "Don't worry, it's all learning. It's better that we had an incident like that later on than when you were just starting out." Janius said with a smirk. If he were completely open, Janius would have admitted that he may have put Kaleeth under too much stress last time, but at least he didn't lose the arm outright. That Kaleeth held back was telling of her progress.

"Today, we are going to try something to help bridge that instinctual hostility. We might not make much progress immediately, but I think it will get better over time. Allow me to explain:" Janius tapped a finger against the side of his head, "Now, in our heads, or at least in the heads of our beasts spirits, we have a pack instinct that forges a primal bond of trust between us. Unfortunately, being a werecrocodile, we've found that it isn't present in you, as you know. But where instinct ends, training begins. I've seen you have been making the effort to try and get closer to the pack to help to get used to us, and that might help, but it also gave me an idea. After we do an initial hunt, getting our spirits calm, we're going to stay in our beast forms and try some exercises to get your form used to our presence first hand, starting with myself and Meesei. Your beast spirit might be an animal, but it can learn. It might not be quite as effective as pack instinct, but it may make life easier." He placed a hand on her shoulder, "And if you get uncomfortable, try signalling by snapping at the air and we'll back off. It'll be safer than going for my arm." Janius grinned.

Over by the riverbank, Fendros looked into the water with a frown. After thinking for a few seconds, he turned to Rhazii, then looked up at Ahnasha, "It's too risky to leave him alone or to have strangers watch him in the city. Someone from the pack will have to stay behind." Fendros' voice didn't indicate any compromise, but he rubbed at the side of his neck as he continued, "As for who, that will probably be Meesei's decision, but I had been thinking about it as well. Since you started training again, you've gained back much of your ability, so I think it will still be worth it for you to come. We would have to ask her whether it would be okay, but I was thinking that if we need as many fighting bodies as we can, then...perhaps Sabine would be willing to watch Rhazii? We might be able to try that trick in the nanny book with the milk bottle and cloth. We can probably get milk from Gideon, and if Rhazii takes to it, then he can be fed. What do you think?"
