That suited him well enough, and he decided to keep to the back and cover the rear. He had plenty of rear experience after all. No need to place himself in danger just yet, if there even was to be any. The pleasant scenery and relaxing atmosphere thus far was lulling Meo into feeling quite secure that this would be an uneventful trip.<br/><br/>Meo considered having some fun by mimicking other party members voices and causing some misunderstandings, having listened to them talk long enough to get a handle on their voices, but decided it best not to be troublesome so soon after gathering. If anything he was too eager to make this adventuring an ongoing endeavour, and too cautious not to mess things up after waiting so long to find a group. Instead, he contented himself with mimicking some of the bird calls from the area, amused whenever he saw a bird in the trees looking down at him confused.<br/><br/>When the green-haired elf Kirss brought him a berry, Meo thought perhaps he had seemed<em>too much</em>like a bird and was being offered a treat, before realising that these had been distributed to everyone else as well. He regarded the berry a bit suspiciously. While he had enjoyed being called 'Mmmeo' so much to have made a mental note to use that in future and was thus inclined to trust Kirss, he couldn't help thinking of how easy it would be to poison a berry, if it wasn't by nature poisonous already. It was also a fact everyone here at just met hours ago and could have all sorts of secrets or motives. For now, Meo accepted the berry with a bird whistle, before catching himself and switching back to Common to say "Thanks, I'll certainly save it for the right time."  The right time being after at least someone<em>else</em>had tried one first.<br/><br/>As clouds gathered and rain seemed possible, Meo took his backpack into his arms and prepared to raise it over his head for shelter if things did get wet. He hadn't yet travelled the wilds enough to be unconcerned by dirt and rain, and was still very concerned with the ruination of his appearance.
