Kurt giggles a little at the gathering crowd, giving Kai—oh yeah, it's definitely Kai, they can tell—just as many scritches behind the ear as they gave his brother. For being so huge, powerful and toothy and more than twice the size of the hunting dogs back in their village, the wolves really aren't as scary as one would think. They just kind of act like overgrown puppies, smiling and panting and wagging their tails, excited about cuddles and pets. What on earth were the humans so scared of?
"You will?" They blush a little at the thought, awestruck that the pack would change up their habitat so drastically just for them. Like they really are one of them. A proper member of the pack. It makes their full stomach do giddy little flips, heart beating faster where it's pressed against Corrigan's. "I'd l-like that. Thank you so much..."
From within the veritable pile of wolves surrounding them on all sides, covering their bare skin with soft fur and body heat, Kurt sees poor Benji pacing anxiously, radiating misery. He's really this worried about them? It feels surreal, having someone cherish them so much he'd worry himself sick over them, let alone having five. Swallowing down the sudden swell of emotion, Kurt reaches out for the youngest wolf, fingers curling invitingly, a sleepy smile on their face.
"Hey, i-it's okay, Benji. You don't have to worry so much. C'mere, baby, it's okay," they gently call, ready to pet his sweet little face once he gets close. Kurt doesn't even realize they're being tested. They just want to pet their fretful mate, reassure him that they won't freeze to death in the night. "See? I'm completely fine. M-More than fine. Everyone's keeping me so warm and safe, r-right? It's okay, puppy, you can relax. That's a g-good puppy..."
