His tail wagged, and he puffed up when she brought up his family. "Chatter is my brother! He's really talkative so I call him Chatter, he's super outgoing and kind of a brat, but he leaves our den the most cause he's small and easy to carry around. He was a rat before he died!" The coyote bounced from paw to paw as he spoke of his family--he loved them and they loved him and so why wouldn't he love talking about them? "Amma is a goat, she has big really cool horns! She's my grandma, she calls herself everyone's grandma. If she still could move she'd try to feed everyone. Bronx was a bear, he's kind of a jerk but he means well, he was a bear, he's really big, he's my uncle! Well he says he's my uncle-figure, I don't really know what that means."

He had to stop and think regarding Giggle and Aure, though. He hadn't interacted with them much, only really knew them as members of the Bound, in passing from living in the same cave. "Aure... Aure is our leader! He's very big and fluffy and feathery. Giggle is his mama, she can read the bones to see what's happened or what will happened!" he grinned and nodded, wagging his tail, "I would like to learn that some day, my friends can tell me the past but not all bones will talk to me and they do not know the future."

He grinned and wagged his tail, "When then? I can go whenever, it sounds fun!"

'Are your friends all bones?' she asked, and he nodded with a happy yip, "They are! Chatter and Amma and Bronx and a few of the others, they all died a long, long time ago. But the Bound, no, the Bound are alive, they don't take the bones into them." A pause, "Which doesn't make since I don't think because they're Bonebound, and Bone is even in the name!" he looked at her as though to say 'don't you agree?'

Ge furrowed his eyebrows, though, "Hm, maybe! But what if something scary might happen? Wouldn't you want to know just in case? So you can protect your friends and your family?" after all, if something was going to happen, say if his den might collapse, he'd want to get one of the others to help him move Bronx and Amma, they were much to big for him and he could only carry one at a time, to somewhere safe. He nodded, agreed with a yip and a wag of his tail, "Now is good! I can't wait!" he spun in a circle, snapped at his tail.

"Yeah!" he yipped, and spun another excited circle. "If you join us you couldn't talk to them but you could see them! We'd be happy to have you I think, I don't talk to them much but they like everything I think." he nodded definitively.

He stared blankly at her for a long while, her words going far, far over his head. "Huh, I guess so." he finally agreed, before planting his paws and shaking himself off, throwing a cloud of dirt and loose fur and dust into the air, sneezing.

"Nope!" he yipped as though that Wasn't No Problem At All, "But we just gotta follow our noses. Smell the grass and follow it!" he shoved his nose into the grass she'd been eating before, "Eridanus is all planty right? It'll smell like it!" With nose in the air, he trotted away, not a care in the world.
