[The ears are a good barometer of mood as the attempt progresses, and Fjord gets more into his own head over how foolish he undoubtedly looks in front of someone else. Especially someone who claims to know him. Just lowering bit by bit with each failed stumble, the huffs and grumbles slipping from him shading a bit more frustrated in kind, the tail moving again but in more of a lash than a wag, close to his legs.
Then Caduceus is moving, stepping into his line of sight and offering advice. The firbolg with his ridiculous perception would likely see the way the wolf glances about, like if he wasn't about to pitch onto his face, he'd have already fucked off in utter embarrassment to continue this mess somewhere private. But the advice was sensible. Logical. Enough so that Fjord whuffed a low breath, before gathering himself again. Trying once more to sort himself back to standing normally. Which he manages this time, before trying to do as Caduceus suggested. Focusing on him, rather than the awkwardness of four legs under him, and the strange feel of the balance. And while he stumbled still along the way, he was making much steadier progress this time. Trying not to rush out of some attempt to get this over with faster, certainly awkward and clumsy about it, but making his way closer to the cleric, ears lifting from their backwards tilt ever so slightly as he did.]
