– NATE –
There is a lot of meaning attached to the name he receives, stories and warnings and praises all rattling around in his head as Nate once again stares at the hound. If anything, the name only fills him with more restless energy, the tip of his tail flicking through the sand. I've heard a lot about you. He ventures, once he's actually put some thought into his words, meaning to tread far more carefully now. Maybe he'd have been better off not knowing, letting this first impression stand on its own merit, instead of being twisted by attempts to make it shine brighter.
It opens up extra options, a thread of connection between them, despite the fact that they are strangers. Nate wonders if it's in bad taste to bring up the wedding, to ask if he's heard, been invited. Wonders where his own pin is placed with the other man, if he falls closer towards Sunjata, and the menace he's earned himself, or if he had the chance to actually prove himself. It's good to have something to attach to the name now. The words come after a long pause, a touch of humour brightening them. Even the dog is better than the blank he'd known before, except for maybe vague memories of that huge fucking guy from long ago attended meetings in the Grounds.
