Squall was a man of few words, and so the nod he offered to Bull's first statement was his own quiet way of saying 'Thank you.' He followed the direction and also handed off a couple of the canteens.

"I have heard that this area's fauna is not...particularly aggressive." Squall wasn't sure how else to phrase this idea. It was still foreign to him that he didn't need to be extremely on guard at all times. There was wildlife, and some was more prone fighting over territory, but it was nothing like what Squall was used to in his world.
