"Haven't heard much about them to be honest. Hard to be afraid of someone if you're like to never run across them and all," He shrugged lightly at that, though something considering flickered across his expression as Loki was continuing, gaze turning to him again before skittering back away. Both because of the idea of shapeshifting, and well... "I'm a runt too. Pretty sorry excuse for a half-orc."
The comment was casual- a thing he'd heard so often in his life that he barely registered such a relatively mild thing, didn't even really notice himself saying it.
He'd never been in an actual home before, at least that he can recall. Seen glimpses through windows in passing, heard soft chatter of families, children laughing, but it was hardly the same as standing in the kitchen of one, stepping gingerly past the entryway as if nervous that somehow he'd spoil the place by his presence. Loki's instructions were sensible with how he was still dripping saltwater under the blanket, and he padded quietly to one of the indicated chairs to sit, doing his best to be still rather than squirm uncertainly like he somewhat wanted to.
