Yeah, I like to think that Noah think those he accept as a part of his pack and that could lead to complications if he joined an actual pack.
He was more of a stray dog scavenging in trash for food then a wild dog hunting, while growing up. Do the former hunt? in either case i can see him trying when he sees the prices of food XD
Hmm, well he does need to get to know authority as he was growing up running from them... What about the hunting first, then later Noah could use Raphael as a bridge to authority and not fear it?
