FOX
"I am honoured." Fox laughs, as though being unforgettable due to bouncing off a wall of spider webbing is something he ought to be proud of. (Ding dong, you are wrong). Either way, though he doesn't say it out loud, Kiada can at least rest assured that she's memorable to him. It isn't often that Fox gets to have casual conversations - or if he does, they usually aren't with fascinating, pretty Outlanders.
"I think I remember hearing about that. The sickness, I mean. I feel as though I should know about the lava death, because that's pretty heroic." Smiling, it feels weird to want to say sorry for your loss to someone standing right in front of him. Unfortunately Tanau feeling bad about it takes a backseat to the whole becoming Ascended thing, and Fox has to try hard not to bite his tongue hard enough to make it bleed.
Still, Kiada doesn't exactly sound thrilled about it either, Fox nodding stiffly. "Not an easy road you've walked," he remarks.
He's about to say something else - maybe even to dig a little deeper about her past - but when Fox turns, it's to find Kiada cursing and quite impressively tangled up in the webbing. "I... how...?" he blurts before he can stop himself, quickly bending to retrieve the knife from his boot.
"Hold on a sec, I'll cut you down." Hurrying over, he does his best to free the Ancient without tangling her up elsewhere or letting her fall. "What if I told you that this is quite the first impression," he drawls, raising his eyebrows at her playfully.

astra inclinant, sed non obligant
Horns: Small, bone-like protrusions (aka your stereotypical devil horns) that are easy to miss in his hair.
