Archen listened to her as she responded, instantly recalling the moment Elric had inquired about his scars. "Yeah, I wasn't too happy about my own reaction, but I've began to cope better with my past since I've been here. I guess knowing there is a future ahead helps you forget about your past." He said softly, rubbing his shoulder as it pushed the fur into the scar he held, memories of those times flooding back, anger right behind them but he found himself able to suppress it.

Arch listened to her as she spoke about the reason for her dislike of being touched, "Half the reason? Then am I wrong to assume you know the other half? I would like to know, but I won't push any further if you don't want to tell me." He said softly, pawing at the fish and bringing it closer to him as he grabbed it in his muzzle and swallowed the tender meat. "Well, I'm sure you're hungry, how about a little hunting trip? Just choose what you want to eat and I'm sure we can track it down."

Standing up from his position, he listened to the black furred fae intently. "I see..." He stated softly, hating that she was still so closed to him. However, that was probably just who she was. He listened to her next words, feeling a bit of annoyance in her phrase. "I'm sorry if I come off as being annoying, I just assumed you would be hungry by now. Neither of us have eaten in a while, so I thought you could use something. If all you want is a hare, that's fine, but we have two of us. I'm sure we could find an elk to eat if you're up for the challenge, Raven." He spoke firmly, offering the fae a quick smile before turning his gaze back to the trees behind him. Letting his nose inhale the scents of the surrounding area, a lot of animals instantly becoming known. Traces of an elk scent becoming noticeable, but without getting closer he couldn't be sure. "So, how about it? Hare or Elk? Your choice."

With the multiple howls sounding from atop Winter Mountain, Archen couldn't deny the worry that tinged his mind. "Perhaps we should head back to the den for now, Raven. It sounds like the others are up on the mountain and are dealing with something, I think it would be best if we went back and kept watch over the few who remain at the den." He stated firmly, trotting past the black furred fae in the direction of the den. "I think there are some food reserves at the den if you're still hungry." He spoke softly, tilting his head back slightly as he walked, looking to see if she would follow.
