Shurikai initially remained reluctantly silent on hearing his brothers words, hesitantly nodding acknowledgement in the place of words. The suggestion of grouping was a good one but this protectiveness, whilst appreciated, irked the nineteen year old. He was tempted to point out that many of the aspiring boss clearers were 3 years younger than himself or more and, on top of this, that the age gap between themselves was little more than two and half years but resisted. He was well aware Firelord's less rash attitude towards this "game" was probably a big factor in their still being alive and, on a more personal level, he didn't want to offend the older brother who was just looking out for him so instead fell into a personal reverie as they made their way back towards the town.
A short time after having set off Shurikai was gently taken from his contemplations when the rest of his two member party changed direction without warning and he found himself looking for the reasoning of this sudden change. A brief surveying of the environment combined with his brothers earlier suggestion let Shurikai put two and two together. It had become apparent that his brother was approaching this lone stranger either with the intent to assist him with the boar or simply to engage him in conversation. Either way the player didn't seem to notice his brother and headed off in another direction so Shurikai acted to get his attention.
"Oyoy!" He called at Kingetsu before pointing the mans attention to the somewhat taller Firelord. Shurikai wasn't much for talking. He'd get involved if he was asked to or something caught his attention he felt was worth commenting on.
