He really didn't know. And even if he knew, Tsume wasn't the type to spare someone's feelings when he spoke. Even as he started to earn his place in their ramshackle pack, he still wouldn't mingle his words, and say precisely what he meant. Perhaps he didn't say it on purpose due to his ignorance concerning the lion's past, but even had he known, it wouldn'tve made a difference to him. Besides, part of him didn't expect anyone here to have any semblance of a personality or past, anyway. He was dead, apparently, having fallen--quite literally--just short of his chance at redemption. Screw paradise, he wasn't getting in anyway, nor did he ever expect to.

He was surprised when Kovu cocked an attitude with him. He couldn't say he wasn't interested now, at least. "T'ch, threaten you? Don't flatter yourself, kitten, I'm not here to waste my time."

"Or play twenty questions." In his frustration at the lion's own ignorance concerning something that was really considered common sense as far as he knew, a corner of his lips peeled back, but he did answer the question. He had to if he wanted information, apparently, because everyone else seemed too put-off by his appearance to do no more than cast side-glances or ignore him all together while bustling past. And, while Tsume wasn't the epitome of poise, he didn't pick fights, either.

He only responded with violence whenever provoked. Or when faced with stupidity and annoyances. "It's a human's pet, don't make me spell it out." His voice grew a bit terse as far as the humans could tell, but for any animals around, a slight growl would creep into his voice as his ears laid back a moment. "You know, the whole collar and leash bit? Don't tell me you haven't seen it, it's pretty damn hard to miss.

Now just tell me where the hell we're at or I'll find someone who can." He was getting impatient with the feline's games, especially because he didn't particularly believe that 'sharing was caring.' He just wanted to get what he needed and go. Where, he didn't know, but he had to do something in this god forsaken hell-hole, and knowing what this stupid place was would be a start, at least.

Tisk, tisk, Tsume. Starting to revert to your old ways so quickly? And he'd come such a long way with Kiba, Toboe, Hige, and Blue, too. Then again, all those loose ends would nag at the back of his mind, always, a reminder as painful as his scar.
