Grumpy Raptor Seeks Punching Bag [Open]

Red Snout roamed the halls of the ship, muttering to himself. His attempt to win leadership had failed (failed!) against the old human, who had proved more formidable then he expected.  It was no shame to lose, he knew, not against a chief (he knew now why the old one was chief. He was wily, tricky and even possessed some physical strength) but the humans did not see it that way, he could tell. They laughed at him. And the one thing Red Snout hated was to be laughed at. He was a skilled warrior, a good hunter, and enjoyed a decent position of respect at home. Here? Here he was a stranger among strangers, made even more different by the fact that he was a raptor and not human.

It angered him so to be laughed at. He must rectify his humiliation, he decided, and soon. Preferably by beating up another crew member where others could see and then they would know his abilities were not a joke. Then they would know why the Swiftclaw tribe had lived in the same land for generation on generation, why nobody, not even a T-rex, had driven them from their hunting grounds. Yes, they would learn to respect Red Snout.

"Stupid humans..."

"Oh, uhm..." Yoshimi follows the hallway with her eyes, blinking slowly. "Thanks." She feels a little rude just walking off, though...

"Well, uh, it was nice meeting you Red Snout. I'm gonna go play with the weird rooms. Maybe kill a few not-real enemies of my own. Er... I guess I'll see you around, being on the same ship and all." Awkwardly, she waves and edges past him, only glancing back at him when she was about to turn a corner. Raptors...
