Stand right there (open, joining)

Wow. So apparently this was a member of the welcoming committee. Already, Thea's fur fluffed up more, if anything, at the tone used, but quickly smoothed back down at the arrival of the next, though the tension between the two, maybe at Carolina's words, was quite easy to see. What if this wasn't the best choice to make? Doubt crossed her features for a few brief moments, and a paw lifted to take a step back, to make a run for it, before Thea steeled herself and set her paw down, tilting her head. "I'm, uh, Thea."

"I'm here to join." She finished, the tip of her tail twitching again.
