Her gaze swept down the docks as another figure came into view and as she took in his scent, she relaxed. It was just Henry. She'd met him a couple times, usually at pack events or dinner, but she knew him to be harmless and pretty quiet. One brow rose in amusement as Henry right up to the young man and asked if he could help with something. She couldn't tell if he was just being helpful or if he was feeling a little protective of her or the pack. Her lips twitched in humor. He assured the man most of the action happened after dark and Alexis nodded in agreement, though her nose wrinkled a little at the thought of that arena and the fights that happened within it. Henry continued to question the man, saying maybe he was there for something else. She watched the man in quiet contemplation, not sure what to think of him yet. He gave her a charming smirk that she couldn't help but return, offering a smile in return as she brushed some hair behind her ear.
The man continued to grin and merely shrugged at her question before saying he wanted to talk with Tetradore but it looked like a busy evening. She smirked a little. "Every evening gets busy around here. But Tetradore can probably make time for you." She assured him, trying to be helpful and kind. Surely Tetradore wouldn't mind talking to the young man. He seemed like he might be on a mission. He said that he was looking for something more permanent and her brow rose, tilting her head as her gaze swept to Henry before looking at the man again. Did he want to join the pack? That sounded permanent. She nodded. "I see." Then the man gave his name as Marcelo and she smiled again. "It's nice to meet you, Marcelo. I'm Alexis and this is Henry." She introduced him, sure that he could do it himself but she was being outwardly friendly as possible so they didn't run the guy off if he wanted to join the pack.
At Henry's appearance, Marcelo only seemed more at ease, grinning at him too before he asked if Henry was part of the panther's pack. Alexis raised a brow but held her tongue, letting Henry answer that one. Marcelo said he had heard about some of the packs in the area and that he'd heard about the fights. Alexis' brows furrowed at the word. She couldn't seem to hide her distaste of the arena. She couldn't help but smirk though when he said that he wasn't much of a fighter cause he didn't want to mess up his hair or his face. She snickered. "Guess that's as good a reason as any." She surmised with a shrug. He said he wanted to talk with Tetradore, to see what the pack was all about and she nodded. Then he asked when the fights start and she glanced at Henry for him to answer that one. She usually stayed away from the Ark when the fights started up. She hated hearing all the yelling and smelling the blood.
At his question of the champ though, she couldn't help but snort and roll her eyes. "Tetradore, of course. It only makes sense, I guess." She shrugged and glanced at Henry to make sure he was okay with it before she nudged her head at Marcelo. "Well, Marcelo, if you want to come on in, I'll find Tetradore for you."
