"What's NOT to understand?" Tsume asked. "We needed to survive, and the ones who could fake looking human got shot less often then the ones who couldn't. Also, humans get intimidated pretty easily--all it takes is someone who doesn't yak a lot or screw things up."

"Good point." Midna realized that it was probably a smart move, after all. There wasn't really any better camouflage than shapeshifting, was there? She was also curious about how exactly they did it, but on second thought maybe it would be better not to ask. "Tch. You don't need to tell me. Quite a few of them tremble at the sight of even me."

"They usually ran from us in our world if they didn't mistake us for dogs," Tsume remarked. "I don't know about this world, though."

"Sounds familiar," put in Midna, remembering the uproar letting a wolf loose in Castle Town had provoked, and of course, Agitha ("Puppy!"). She sighed, watching the sky. "I'm still not entirely sure where this is, but I'm willing to bet that the humans aren't going to be much different."

"Even the hybrids are wimps here," Tsume scoffed. "They're huge and all, but they don't put up much of a fight when they find out we're REAL wolves."

That was actually kind of surprising, and Midna looked impressed. "Oh, really? Funny, I would have thought the opposite...but then again, why should a combination of wolf and human be stronger than just a wolf?" She shrugged. "I guess this isn't quite as tough a world as you're used to. That's a good thing, right? ...But it's hardly paradise."
No kidding there.

"It's because they know real wolves don't think like humans," Tsume told her. "A lot of it has nothing to do with strength--not physical strength, anyway. You can be as strong as you like but if you always chicken out, you have no business trying to act tough. It's not that we don't care--we know most other wolves have a pack they want to go back to--but accidents happen, people die, and some people are too dumb to stay alive anyway. Why bother feeling bad about it?"
He scratched an ear. "I like not going hungry for two weeks and not having to fight my way out of things, thanks. I'll get over the rest of it. But Kiba? He was looking for a future, not just a place that might not even be real. The minute I asked him, that was what he said. It must be why he hates it here."

Midna frowned, but not in displeasure. She had to think about that. "I...imagine so," she replied with a sigh. "I mean, it's practically inevitable that there's going to be some tragedy. We all just have to face up to it." She sighed; this was certainly a deep talk. ...She might yet learn a lot from Tsume.
She stretched out, tossing her hair back over her shoulders and fiddling with the bead that tied it in front. "And it's nice to not have to constantly run around looking for something else," she conceded. "Yeah...too bad about him...I wonder if he'll be alright, or snap even more, or what."

"He might," Tsume remarked. "I hope he doesn't snap, at least."

((Okay, I'm sorry, I had been completely distracted by the other threads.))
"Oh, boy...that can't be good. I'm pretty sure you'd be able to keep him under control, though, right?" The words suggested she was worried for Kiba, but her tone betrayed a concern for him.

"If he does, though, he'd probably get himself killed before he tries to kill me," Tsume (sort of) reassured her. "Wolves can't afford to kill off their own pack members--especially since we're the only two around who can fight now."

"Oh. I see." Midna nodded, and sighed...a thoroughly unpleasant business, but she supposed it had to be done. "These are some pretty dark times." Now she was a little depressed, and she leaned back.
"You know, I'm actually surprised you're telling me all this..."

"It's sort of because I don't have anything better to do," he said, though his rather empty stomach begged to differ.

((Sorry, that one's my fault for not noticing.))
"That's as good a reason as any," Midna said, amused, and actually smiling genuinely. As if reading his thoughts, she then put it in, "You know, I'm a bit hungry. Perhaps you'd care to stay for lunch?"
