Max looked to see Kieara near him, listening to her as she asked if he could speak or if he could understand her. He didn't say anything to her, he kind of just looked away for a moment as they walked. She was waiting for him to say something, that was the key, right? He wasn't going to say anything, so he just nodded his head to her questions. Yes he could speak, and yes he could understand. But would he speak to her? No. He was stubborn and didn't trust this human enough for him to waste his breath speaking to her. Max kept walking along, trying to enjoy the vegetation around him, many of which he didn't see in the lab. He came across another bunny in the path. Stopping to stare at it for a while. He lighty touched it with his foot, watching it hop once away from him. Tilting his head, he picked the bunny up by the ears, not the right way to hold a animal to say the least. He stared at it some more, curious to know of it's existance.
