All Outta Bubblegum (pup training)

Upon learning what kind of training they were in for, Geoffrey drooped visibly. Out of all the trades and skills that were out there to learn, fighting was probably his least favorite. In his mind it was akin to pulling out a thorn; necessary, but unpleasant.
The boy padded closer and then sat down, his ears pricked forward with keen interest even though the lesson was far from what he'd been wanting. Of course he was still going to participate. Sulking would do him no good; this was something he needed to learn even if the idea made him queasy.
And so far this was looking like an easy lesson! So long as they stuck to merely talking about what they needed to do, he'd be fine. Geoffrey's thoughts drifted back to the meeting and to the lady who'd boasted about cutting out eyeballs. Hopefully this wasn't going to be one of those lessons. "Your belly," he said softly, hoping to answer with what he felt was his most vulnerable area without giving his siblings any ideas.
