[That laugh makes Hei feel suspicious. But he conceals that. Perhaps--as clueless, nervous, and naive Li--he could find out if there's anything else he could learn from this carnivorous individual.]
Ah, thank you... You're the bored hyena from earlier, aren't you?
How long have you been trapped here? Have you been separated from the rest of your pack? [If there's only one, then it won't be any problem to keep Yin away from her.]
[In spite of the rudeness in her tone, Li maintains his mannerisms. The formalities, among other traditions his parents ingrained to him, are the only things he has left that are from home.]
I'm sorry to hear that. Loss of kin is a paining experience some of us face out here. [A gruesome, awful memory flickers in Hei's mind about his parents as he says that. ...Beneath the nice guy facade, Hei understands the sadness and loneliness she must feel, but he cannot sympathize for her all that much. Not when he had felt uneasy and tense about her some minutes ago.]
[A slow sigh.] Someone or something must be doing this to us. That's what I believe anyway.
I--I see... I apologize if I upset you. N-No need for the growling, miss!
[Hei believes he's done here. Doesn't care what the hyena pest thinks if his transmission is suddenly cut off. Let her think that Li is afraid. She might think differently if they see each other in person. He will see to that...]

[That was a pretty calm reaction to her.]
I've been here for a while. And just so you know buddy, my family ain't called a pack, they're called a Clan.

[Completely true, yes. Hei hopes she'll be the last.]
Are the rest of your family there, or did you get separated from them?

[She very well may be.]
No, they aren't around. None of them are.
[She does sound the tiniest bit sad.]

[She growls, feeling truly angry.]
