Hiritus managed to force himself to eat the remainder of his meat quickly, if only so he could get it out of the way first and end the meal on more of a pleasant note. Gallus' question, meanwhile, was met with a quick huff. "You'll understand in time, trust me. Particularly in Anequina, exposing certain skin, or fur, in is just rude. The lycans you've been living with aren't concerned with traditions, and social rules. The beasts are content flaunting their more private areas, like animals. It's something that civilized people just don't do. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and say it's not your fault you don't know these things. For the clothes thing, it relates to attraction, and the fact that we don't want to constantly tempt each other."

Laying back on the ground, Hiritus started much more enthusiastically on a violet, native fruit. With his new, relaxed position, he let out a yawn. Even with the sun still in the sky, it was clear that he would be able to get to sleep quickly.

Jo'rashaad nodded. "This one understands, just make sure you choose the option that will satisfy both of you. Again, you know her better than Jo'rashaad, but she seems like the type that is devoted more to Hircine than her upbringing. We do not have marriage traditions, so if she does actually want a ceremony, she may not care which. Or, she might not want one at all. This one does not know. He has never actually been through one of the ceremonies, but he has of course heard about them. Two souls are bound together under the moons, connecting themselves through Jone and Jode with the crystallized moonlight. It does all sound poetic. That is a Pelletine tradition, anyway. Even this one is not too familiar with the ways of Anequina."
