Nero had snorted again, as though the question was beneath him to answer, which gave the answer enough to which pack he belonged to. At the entrance of the new bird, who goes by Greed he lifts a lip, but is seated with his tail around his feet.
"I don't need to know where your kind do lie, you winged stomach." he says with a bitter tone, "Perhaps you are more useful than your friend or relative. Have you seen a funny colored fox, or a white one, named Fetter?" he looks from the corner of his eye to see if Solstice responds to that, or notices his asking a second time to the new bird. He is settling slowly, but you can see that his shoulders are still tense.

Solstice looked at Nero with curiosity. He kept asking for a fox, she looked at him for awhile wondering why before turning back to the birds and studying them for awhile. Her tail till swishing back and forth and occasionally dipping into the water. The only time her eyes weren't on the strange birds they were either on Nero or the water, both of which fascinated her to different extents.

Nero did not like that she kept looking at him and at last, in a level tone he spoke of it "What, pray tell me, is so fascinating that you keep looking at me. I'm neither handsome, nor have I been friendly. I'd like to know what catches your interest." It's not said in a hateful way, but in a cautious, curious way. He seems uncertain of her reasoning and if it's well to do.

Solstice just smiled. " You just... different... for lack for a better word." She said " As for friendly, you have been....in your own ways. And the handsome bit, well... that's in the eye of the beholder." She added on with a flick of her tail before turning her back on them and slowly drinking from the river. To be honest she didn't even know why she kept staring at him, there was just something that interested her, so she didn't question it she just accepts it.

Greed knew where Fetter was. He never were almost everyone was because he wanted to know where they all were. He stared at the two wolves, especially Nero who was bickering with Solstice. "I am Greed, am I not? If Greed wants to know where Fetter is, then he will know where Fetter is. Greed does in fact know where the rainbow Fox lies, but should Greed tell the one with the evil looking eyes?" A spider caught Greed's vision, he clanked his black tipped beak a few times and ate the bug. He was hungry, and preferred a rodent of some-sort. He stared into the trees with a blank look.

Nero cocked his head at her, his ears starting to fold back, but coming forward again, showing his confusion. He glared though, which expressed his indecision if she may have been having some kind of joke at his expense. He loosened up though, deciding it was her own bizarre way of things, much like his fox's. He shows so many conflicting emotions, he's never really one way or the other except when he's excited. Even anger has it's levels. "I still think you may be addle." he says softly, but his tone is just such a way to relay an acceptance of her, slight as it is.
Towards the bird though, Greed, his tone becomes snide, that almost friendly demeanor buried again. "If you won't then I'll keep looking. Fetter always wanders, I'm not her master after all." something was left hanging at the end of that sentence, it was not complete, but he said no more.

Solstice looked at Nero and wagged her tail before looking between him and the birds. " Who is this Fetter? Some lover or something?" She asked playfully while shaking her head free of any attached water droplets. Solstice smiled and stood up and started looking around, before giving a yawn and watching Nero and the two Sins. Ears up ready to absorb any random information she may need later.

If wolves could blush Nero would, but it would be a flush of anger and confusion. His ears flick back "No, Fetter is..." Here he actually pauses, and confusion flicks over his face in a manner of ways before sticking. "Fetter is special. I don't have anyone, never have." He's not, in all honesty, able to really explain Fetter.
The fox in questions is further down the river, engaged in her own interests.

Greed stared at Nero with interest, his yellow eyes pierced into the wolf. "No one has a master nor servants, unless the pay the price. The price of servants is to fall under the influence of greed, not I, but just greed. Then they too can become a sin." Greed observed Pride fly away, happy now that the annoying bird was gone. "Fetter is where Fetter wants to be. Greed will tell thee when Greed wants to tell thee. Perhaps Greed shall if a bargain is made?" Greed was really hungry now, but he was too lazy to fly off and search for pry. /Greed must be careful,/ he thought. /Or else Greed shall become Sloth./

" Hmm bargaining with a Sin, doesn't seem smart..." Solstice said quietly. She then started walking past Nero but stopped a few feet from him. " We can find Fetters ourselves" She said cheerfully. Solstice really just wanted to walk around and stretch her legs, to much sitting can be boring. She would have gone off on her own but she didn't think Nero would let her, invitation or not. Solstice smiled at Greed and tilted her head, " Anything else you'd like to say or shall you tag along too?"

Attempting to shrug, Greed stared at Solstice. "Greed will go where Greed pleases. Greed has no other to accompany, so Greed shall." He flew off his branch and extended his wings fully, the white feathers under only visible as well as his brown stomach. He encircled the two wolves and landed next to Solstice, but far from Nero, afraid that the wolf would attack him.

Nero rose as she started past, and on hearing her say 'ourselves' he bristled a little, but Fetter probably would like her. It would be Fetter's way. It hit him a moment, what if she...He shakes his head at his thoughts and starts down the bank.
"She had gone wandering, normally you can't find her unless she wants to be found. But....if you see a funny colored fox that would be her." He explains at least that much about her. May as well, though, Fetter would introduce herself anyway...
He considers this female from the corner of his eye. He wants to know her insides, he wants to know her secrets. In a way getting to understand the workings of the mind is like dissecting it, on a more personal level.

Solstice smiled at greed and Nero before continuing on. " A funny colored fox you say? Interesting, shouldn't be to hard to miss." She said as they walked. Solstice's tail swished back and forth with every step, out of the corner of her eye she noticed Nero watching her. She smiled and tilted her head. " It's okay to ask questions you know, I won't bite." She said with a chuckle. " you know unless you want me to." She added quickly in an attempt to get the slightest hint of humor from Nero.

His ears stand taller and he nips at her tail in an attempt of friendliness. That's what friendly wolves do right? "Careful, I like a woman with bite." He chuckles at his words, unsure if they may be offensive or not.
He lapses into silence after this, considering asking her a question, at length he does. "You said you have a mission...a mission of what?"

Solstice giggled slightly as she lightly flicked his nose with her tail. " Now now, careful what you ask for mister. And as for my mission..." She said with a smile before trailing off. " I.... I have to find my brother... and... and.... well... " She stared at the ground thinking about it for awhile. " I'm going to try to kill him..." She finally said after awhile of not talking.
