fishing in the dark

A wide yawn stretched his jaws as he continued to follow along the edge of the lake. The fireflies had come out a short time before and at first he had been awed by them and their little floating, glowing bodies, but very soon he grew more tired than he was excited by the new sight. He had traveled an awful long way so far even though he had no destination in mind and no idea what he might do next. He hadn't seen Amethyst in a while, his dad was always so sad all the time, and Paradise barely wanted to leave her precious buffalo. It was just so boring staying in one place all the time so here he was. Alone with a bunch of dang fireflies. His eyes fluttered closed for a moment, his paws continuing to carry him forward despite the fact that he couldn't see where he was going. Practically sleepwalking, Pyre had no idea what was in his path as he basically walked right over the other man laying on the ground. It startled him awake as he stumbled and flipped right over the stranger, landing on his back with a thud and a huff of air. He stared up at the sky for a moment with a confused expression, blinking and getting his bearings together. Pyre twisted his head to look at whatever it was he had tripped on and saw the slightly larger guy right in his line of sight. "Oh! Jeeze, my bad," he said as he hurried to his paws and shook off his fur. "Sorry, that was dumb of me." |
