The briefest of looks is given after Atumi's retreating form, before white eyes flicker to Tasiri... and hold there. The tan merely felt hostile to him, and instinctively, he took a few steps away from her. Eyes close now, head turning away to the ground, ears flicking up, turning left, tilting right, then settling back against his own head. He listens for a long moment, to the many noises of his own body, singling out the blood rushing through his veins. It was a study beat now, but that whistling noise? Akar focused in on it now... his breath, his life force, an interesting noise for that which kept him alive. Ear flicked again, and the black focused on the sounds of those around him, he heard fur rustle as breezes blew past... and he shifted into his own. Feeling the wind against his flank and trying, with little success, to feel the bodies of the other Korats in the wind. Akar opened his eyes now, moved his tail in front of him, and for a long moment... feel the wind blow ofer his tail and brush against his flank. It was there. Very slight, a bit of an upturn in a perfectly flat wind... but it was there. Akar shivered once, delighted by this small step to success, and tried once more. This time he felt it, again... slight... an argueably helped by his opening of eyes to acknowledge what Korat was positioned where... and indeed, scent helped as well. Scent! Akar's ears flattened, and he stopped focusing on the feel of the wind. Instead, his muzzle raised to it picking up the various scent and racking his brain to seperate them appropriately. There... the easily recognizable Numi... next Raydiehl... a sharp scent, Tasiri? Akar shook his head, and picked up the old scents of students from yesterday, recognizing a few stripeds and placing them in his mind as well. Akar opened his eyes now, pure white gaze falling upon the earth, examining the different shades of grain that made soil, marveling at the unique shades of each. He eyed plant life next, seeming to reach out and touch each plant with his eyes, coming to know the plant through it's structure, color, and also how each shadow fell upon them... It was only when the shadows had changed significantly that Akar realized how much time has passed... eyes shining with the glorious love of truly knowing the planet he lived upon... he takes to watching others enjoy themselves.
