pawsteps carried the luminary over to the growing gathering of bodies with a raised eyebrow, decked out in his lion form, a body of nightmares all to himself. weary was the breath that left him as he observed Lucinder and Kiara's reactions as well as Seven's, silver gaze watching the youth before moving up to the bobcat. another grandchild of his master's, it would seem, if his memory served him right. offering the woman a head nod, he would come to stand some distance back, avoiding the child as much as he could for the painful memories of his own that had gone missing, adopted and biological. "Mei. Welcome back.", he would murmur, recognizing the hauntedness in her gaze, hell, he knew it like a best friend himself.
"She must be rather young.", he murmured, casting a quick glance over the cub before back up to the exhausted bobcat, a hint of tired amusement in his own at the child's spitfire reaction, "I think you could hurt us more than we could hurt you, spitfire. They didn't mean to scare you.", he paused for a second as he maneuvered his large and aching body to a slight bow, heavy paws keeping the lion up. "Come, return home, Mei. We will give you as much aid as we can.", he murmured, sniffling as he turned aside on the path, grateful for the veil covering his mouth.
