LOREN
At Korbin's snarky response, Loren let out another snarl. Isn't a bit hypocritical for you to call anyone else cranky? It came out as a distinctly annoyed grumble. As the raven challenged the honey badger, though, he actually found himself jumping off his chair and stalking towards the hunter.
Then Astra's startled and slightly distressed bleat distracted the healer. As she fled to hide behind a chair, he turned to face Chuy, who had, wonder of wonders, shifted. Immediately, the Launceleyn forced himself to calm down, and to focus on the newcomer. Don't mention it. I've been in your shoes.
Not liking the way the larger predator approached, Loren bared his teeth and growled. Annoyed at the way the instincts were getting the better of him, he shifted back into human and reclaimed his seat. Astra hopped into his lap, and he stroked her absently as he considered what else, if anything, to tell Chuy.
Finally, the healer sighed. You're taking all this remarkably well. There's more but it's...not great. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but...there is at least one more thing you should know.
Taking a deep breath, he looked away from the newcomer, an unhappy expression on the Launceleyn's features. The portal...the thing that brought you here? It's...it's a one way trip. His thoughts were twinged with regret and sorrow, and he had to force himself to look back at Chuy. I'm sorry. I know how difficult that is.
