Way to go Estelle. It seems like animals don't like her very much. He's not entirely surprised, but he'll spare her the sarcasm for the time being. Yuri honestly had never ridden any of the Chocobos much less touch them, but he supposed they had to be treated a certain way, maybe.

"Not sure that's the best way to approach a wild animal, Estelle," the long haired man replied approaching her alongside with everyone's favorite pooch, Repede. He's giving her a blank stare, though obviously hadn't done anything to advert himself from her yet.

"You gotta be gentle with it or figure out how to lure it so it doesn't freak out. It's kind of like trying to get a horse to let you ride 'em or something like that," he replied. He's honestly, winging this right now.
