Gaucho grunted in response to her proposed later-spar. He would happily train her again, and again and again and again. And as many times after that as she wanted. Though he very much doubted Ranjiri would require that much of his attention; she was a fast learner.

As she began by saying her patrol had ended, Gaucho wondered why it was she was telling him. After all, Ampere normally handled all debriefs, and -- His thoughts were abruptly cut off as she continued.

Thranduil. Had that name not followed, he might have grumbled about her partners having failed to show up. In the back of his mind he recorded this information and vowed to speak with Meg or Ampere about it. But for now, the golden's presence at the Heart and in Ranjiri's report took center stage.

Gaucho waited for Jiji to mentioned something odd Thranduil did, something suspicious or noteworthy. That he made her uncomfortable was no surprise - especially not after their last meeting in the Basin. But nothing in her report suggested that he had done anything - certainly not anything to warrant her calling him down from the skies as she had. What wasn't she telling him?

"Why uncomfortable? Why he talk to Jiji at all?" Gaucho asked with genuine concern and interest. Thranduil knew better than to bother his flock - or at least he should by now. Especially with things on un-resolved terms between the Throat and the Basin, keeping a distance until some sort of truce or allegiance could be struck was best for all parties. Gaucho's tail flicked with annoyance as he tried to consider what possible motives the Golden could possibly have for interrupting Ranjiri's patrol.
