He kind of shrugged, unsure really what to say. "It's not bad at all." When he'd been bitten, he'd barely felt the pain, or at least, he didn't remember it. That was a looong time ago, anyway. "You recover fast, anyway." That, at least, he was more confident about. "Got that lycan super healing."
It was good to know she wasn't some underage loli trying to join. Those were hard to say no to, but he had to, otherwise he would feel like he was taking advantage of them. Not that he was really one to talk, not at all. How old had he been when he was turned? 14? 15? No idea, and hardly anyone had tried to stop him. Better, probably. He was easy to manipulate back then, and could have been talked out of it without hardly any effort. What would he have become, if he hadn't been bitten?
Wait, though. This wasn't about him. It was about her, the potential new daughter of the forest. He took a step closer, and then another, until he was directly in front of her. "There's no going back, you know." The lycan's voice was gentle, at odds with the bright yellow of his eyes. "Are you completely, one hundred percent sure?"

No going back. The words hit Nadia hard. Sure, she was pissed at her parents right now, and feeling totally sucky about her lack of magic, but was that really a reason to completely uproot her entire life? Plus, there were other things to take into consideration. She'd made friends here, people she liked. On the other hand, if they were really worth her time they'd like her no matter her choice. Still, something about skulking off to the woods without at least wraning them didn't sit right with Nadia.
The certainty she'd felt ebbed away. "Now that you mention it, I figure I'd probably better think about it. Can I come back in a few days and let you know what I decided? Being a Lycan sounds freaking amazing, but, you know, I can't just make a totally life-changing decision just outta the blue like this." Yeah, she'd talk to...someone, and figure out what she was gonna do. Not Finny. Gawd. He'd probably want to do it too, or something equally crazy. Maybe Cyan. He had a good head on his shoulders.
Nadia hoped she hadn't totally offended this Orca guy. "So, yeah, is it cool if I come back in a day or two? Nobody's gonna like eat me or anything?"
She wanted to think about it. Orca eyed her, the relief he felt not showing on his face. She probably had to be the first wannabe lycan in history that had wanted to think about it first. Smart girl.
...Unless, of course, she was chickening out, and this was her way of getting out of there without also being chomped to death. He'd never do that, of course, but humans were weird about these sorts of things. If she'd changed her mind, he wouldn't think any less of her, but he'd certainly feel disappointed (if only because he rather liked her). Still, though. Not wanting to become a lycan was no less smart. Smarter, even. It flipped one's life upside down; he could understand why she might want to Bel-Air it the hell out of there.
Either way. He nodded toward her and stepped back, to show he meant no harm. "Just ask for me. No creature in this woods will harm you if you say my name." His permanent smile got a bit wry. "Uhhh, watch out for spiderwebs, though. The big kind." He didn't wait for her, but turned to go, waving casually at her over his shoulder. "See ya, Nadia." He'd follow her out, to make sure she was safe, but she didn't have to know that.
