Under the Weather
Wide, worried eyes looked on as he told her he wasn't feeling well at all. Ears pinning back as she gasped when he said he didn't think he'd die so young. Blue eyes found the beetles again, wondering if maybe they were toxic. Or...maybe the amount he had eaten were toxic. Perhaps one or two might have been fine, but she couldn't quite tell just how many he had eaten. Was he really dying? Was he going to keel over and lie still forever right in front of her!? Secretly, she hoped they weren't poisonous. But she didn't quite voice that because she didn't want to frighten him...or herself. When she looked back at him, he was pulling himself up and looking away. She was confused, was he just...being dramatic? "I-I'm sure it'll be alright!" She wasn't quite sure yet to be honest. She was trying to keep him from panicking, though in truth, she was probably more scared then he was!
It wasn't until he talked again that her brows furrowed a little. Taking a moment to figure out what he meant. "Wha?" Her gaze showed confusion, and then realization. He was being dramatic! And although she felt bad, she couldn't help but giggle. She tried to imagine telling everyone such a wild story, and as she imagined him fighting a bear, it was just silly to think of. She had heard bears were huge and terrifying creatures, easily able to swallow pups whole she was sure. Her tail wagged just a tiny bit as she dropped her rump to the ground, blue eyes watching him as he returned to looking at her. Brows furrowed again slightly, an angel? Her? No, far from it. She wasn't sure why he asked, but then it dawned on her it was most likely due to her coloring. "No, but I can help you. Just try to relax, I think you just have a tummy ache from eating so many bugs." Her soft voice was soothing, gaze looking at the beetles again. She would have poked at them or gotten closer to smell them to see if they had any toxic properties, but seeing as how they had been thrown up and covered in bile and...other bits, she wasn't keen on sticking any part of her into it. "What's your name?" |
