Lykos took into account what the younger sister expressed in regard to Rathari and their forms, having just cycled through each one with enough concentration on his part. It had been an eventful morning to start with, and truth be told, the energy spent shifting to each form had taken a bit of a toll on his gut. Still, the wolf humbly chuckled at the exchange Lia had with Lana, a bit of surprise found in his eyes when he heard the younger sibling met a Rathari shark once. Imagine accomplishing that. The wolf could scarcely believe it given he himself had yet to meet other Rathari, although, he wasn't so simple as to think he was the only one here in the desert.

Though, at the citadel it was hard to tell if such really were the case. A divine entity, sure, he was likely alone if not only one of the few found here currently. "From what I've heard, and little I do remember, I think that record sticks actually." Lykos came to tease with a hint of a chuckle, admittedly a little relieved to be back in his Zoan form. As human as he appeared there was no denying he still possessed several of the bestial qualities that made him a wolf. At the inquiry that followed his success, he vaguely nodded before passing a glance to each of the sisters present.

"It is, actually, though it's still warm I'm not as hot as I was moments ago." Having all that fur would likely be a challenge if he were out in the desert for long, although, given his luck with bearing magic there was likely something that would help with that as well. "Well I might've been hungry for breakfast before, but now, spending that much effort shifting has definitely worked up an appetite." Lykos then admitted with a hearty chuckle, clearly unsurprised with himself when he felt his gut grow peckish at the thought of food.

He couldn't help but notice Lia's demeanor even when she passed him the robe, and this led the wolf to thoughtfully avert his gaze as he briskly turned it over to slip his arms through. Throwing the fabric on quickly he wondered if by chance the older sibling hadn't much experience with certain things. He figured she might've been bashfully trying to maintain respect, but in reality, the thought of it led him to question his sense of comfort in being without clothing. Whether it was a bad thing or not, well, he would let the ladies decide that for him in time.

For now though, once he was appropriately dressed to cover himself, he remained focused on the siblings with a warm and affectionate grin. "Alright. Thanks, Lana and Lia, let's go get our day started. Hm?" He urged with a touch of enthusiasm in his shoulders, eager to see what sort of new things awaited him after their first shared meal together.
