Krein breathed in deep as a slight breeze passed by, only letting it out when the calming wind subsided. He couldn't help but crack a small smile, his mind wandering off into a distant land as he leaned back, relaxing, at the base a large tree. All his muscles relaxing and becoming loose, it felt as if the rest of the world around him was beginning to melt away, leaving nothing but him, and a quiet, empty realm. As his mind wandered, his strange and embarrassing habit managed to show itself. His mouth cracked open slightly, his forked tongue slipping out slightly and a slight hiss passed through his lips, it was out of his control, and unfortunately unknown to his conscious mind. He was only brought back to reality by a shout of greeting from the distance. As his mind snapped back, the realization of what he was doing was brought to light, he quickly retracted his tongue and forced a hand over his mouth, his eyes looking around for anyone that might have noticed what he was doing, a bit nervous and embarrassed.

He looked up, through his hair, to see who it was that had given the call, as he noticed the girl above them he was thinking to give back a call of greeting, but thought against it. Instead he sat up and gave back a slight wave back, although after he had done so he was at a bit of a loss as for what to do. He simply sat, pondering as to how he should interact, what other reaction to give, or if there was truly a need to give a response after acknowledging her arrival. After a moment of thinking he couldn't come up with anything more to do, he simply let out a sigh as he leaned back against the tree once more, still thinking of something more he could do to interact with the others around him. As he thought his mind began to wander once more, his bad habit showing itself again.
