It could have been, she said, in response to his question, and he could only offer a dark smirk in reply to her amused (smug?) grin. Obviously it was the predator that had set his nerves alight earlier had been her bondmate - knowing this considerably relaxed the stallion, though he didn't let his guard down so low in front of what was still a stranger and a predator.
Grimalkin despised being the brunt of a joke - the mare's smile was off-putting to say the least - it set his nerves on edge again, as he wondered what else does she have planned? Startled? The stallion grunted noncommittally, as if admitting that maybe he was a bit on edge from the whole experience, but certainly, he would not go so far as to say he was startled. But she kept talking then, almost apologising for her companion, and even herself, for being inadequate company. The stallion shrugged the comment off - he didn't wholly believe her, but he wasn't about to attempt to unravel her lies either. For now, it seemed, he wasn't about to lose a limb or an eye for lingering with this mare and her lupine compatriot, and so he captured her next query - the one that required an actual answer from him - with mild interest and polite delight.
"A great many things. My feet, for one," he offered with accented tones and an amused smirk, though he could sense that the mare held no true interest in conversing with him. "What about you?" he asked despite it all, in an attempt to stir something more than indifference from the badger-faced mare with her white companion. Are you here just to generate insanity within my countenance or is there another skill you're equipped with that I am yet to discover?
