While he didn't mind a few games, he just hoped that they didn't chase them off the land completely. "I'm content to do whatever you'd like, honestly. Even if it's just sitting here in the sun all day." Bass said softly, his head lifted up so that his gaze could trail after the herd as they spooked towards the boundary line. Sighing softly, he had to let out a soft chuckle as the sun warmed his back. It would be a fine day to just relax. Duties could come a bit later, right? Shifting so that his paws hung off the stone, he kicked his back legs off to one side and lay there alert, glancing at the horizon from time to time.
