"I'm sure we can come up with something to remedy that." He says as he watches the pair, even with as much space as this enclosure offered, he's sure the kelpie just needed more enrichment or company.
Kielo feels like he's holding his breath as Rudolph takes his time to accept him before there's a sigh of relief and a smile at the press of the Kelpie's breath against his hand. Its progress and he hopes he can gain the creature's trust in time.
As the creature moved closer, he shifts to stand up and help Newt with as much ease as he did carrying him down the stairs earlier was. He didn't think anything of Newt staring at him, gently brushing wet strands of hair out of the other's face before he remembers how the Newt didn't like to be touched.
"Should I get you a towel or anything? He asks before he takes a step back away from the other.
"He wants me to play with him, but he knows I can't," Newt says with a bit of a sigh. Newt usually would be more than happy to spend time with Rudolph, but he physically wasn't in a state for it.
He lets the other help him up and he's distracted enough by his observations that he doesn't even quite realize what the other had done. He blinks once. Twice. Ah, the other was speaking to him. He flushes a bit. He had possibly stare at Kielo a little too long to be considered polite (or normal).
Newt huffs a bit as he sits there. "No, it's quite fine," he replies. "I can dry up in a moment." He needed to catch his breath before he made an attempt to get his wand. He had left it at his bed. "He'll complain if I leave right away." Newt gestures at Rudolph, who disappears back under the water.
