A few more tense moments passed before Krist began to calm down, his front hooves stamping only every so often, his head bouncing up and down a few times as he tried to gain control over himself. This isn't a threat, he tried to convince himself, It's only a human... Eventually Krist backed up a few feet, dark eyes wide as he stared, the space between them thick and hanging undecided in the air. He didn't know what to do about this... what if he changed and the human panicked? Squid had said he should speak to the humans, but maybe this wasn't the right way. He didn't want to be attacked, hunted down or scorned... and so Krist simply stood there, not moving, head lowered, ears turned forward curiously. He would wait to see what this man would do.
