The girl they grabbed is quickly rescued and Kaiden flashes her a sharp-toothed grin as she laughs it off. However the young guildmaster glares repeatedly and the mershark just sticks their tongue out in response. The Ancient clearly needs to relax. Maybe that drink that the duo were getting would help.
Kaiden's tail splashes lazily and they nod at Sohalia, "Ok." Hadama had introduced them so there was no point in giving their name. Instead, the mer turns back to their food as Hadama and Sohalia speak.
Half listening, Kaiden pauses in their meal when they hear about Hadama's friend. A poorly suppressed trickle of sympathy enters the Attuned bond. In contrast, the mershark asks the first question that comes to mind as they take a bit out of chicken wing, "Did they get eaten or something?" A legitimate question but was it one that they should have asked? Kaiden didn't know and it was too late to take back.
