Sorry about me being overly-cheerful in character. Hikaru wants to help others from making bad choices, and he's willing to put his life on the line to do so. Again... Marcus doesn't trust others that easily, and Hikaru's just edgy.
Hikaru tilts his head to one side. "We'd be happy to help you take your home back. It's okay if you don't trust us right away. Everybody here only just met."
"Something wrong?" Hikaru queried Marcus' actions and tone of voice. He stared into the gray pools of nothingness in curiosity. He wanted to help. Hikaru stepped towards the enormous gray wolf, stopping at the crystallized grass. The black wolf wouldn't put a paw on that frost. "You okay? You seem like you don't trust us."
