Masie indeed would be intelligent like her siblings, but at the moment she was actually dim compared to the other raptors around due to an age disadvantage. Luckily, she learned swiftly and had plentiful opportunity to do so, far from isolated. Having the chance to figure out the world herself the way she did? Would one day prove to be an invaluable asset to the young one. The fish was simple, even if she was inexperience and held little knowledge of hunting, her species was still designed for it, just the same as a cat knowing how to unsheathe its claws, simple as breathing for her.
Considering everything, she had been putting more effort into trying to decode the noise made by the animals not of her species. If none of her efforts so far stopped the enraging noises they made sometimes, than she had to find a new approach and that included a new session of evaluation of the target, so to speak. None of her intentions were malicious, but she still approached it like something she had to dismantle to some degree in order to figure out what she needed to do. Whatever that noise of his was sounded more curious this time, as if he didn't know exactly just what was going on. Yes, this was much better, she could work with curiosity and confusion much easier than the noise that made her want to stomp on their necks until it stopped. Heck, if she understood everything she would wonder why the fact she didn't just attack them when upset even in the momentary absence of Owen was not enough to convince them that they were wrong about her.
Masie remembered when Owen had taught her to eat things, not that it had been too hard she just hadn't known how to use her baby teeth. Yet, she was going to need to improsvise to teach this one how to eat, because she didn't have another fish right now and it could take time to catch another one. With the goal clear in mind? She looked around, finallt snatching up a large leaf about the size of the fish, laying it on the ground in front of her the raptor placed one foot onto it as she ripped part of the leaf off and tilted her head back to pretend to eat it. Clearly, she let the leaf fall to the side of her muzzle instead of eating it, but hopefully it would convey the point, amber optics looking at him expectantly as she nodded to the fish than to him. Eating wasn't that hard to teach someone, father had taught her quickly, it should be just as quick teaching him.
