Lurking in the shadows

The apology was not something that Altair was expecting in the slightest. She was kind of waiting on him to leave her in her own little sad bubble for the remainder of his visit as the young pup heaved a slight sigh. Though the apology was nice, it necessarily wasn’t needed. They had a rather rough encounter meeting one another, but the pup was willing to let everything that happened within the last couple minutes leave her mind. She wasn’t sure what this teen’s story was, so she couldn’t really judge him on one small encounter.

Hunting buddies? The thought did seem rather nice. The only small things that she was able to really get her paws on was mice and the occasional small rabbit if they weren’t really paying attention to her presence. But, she at least had a lot of room to grow and prove herself in a hunt; so it would be nice to learn new things even if she were to possibly be a horrible hunter compared to him after the situation with the rabbit she already knew he could handle himself with them.

“Sure, we both have to survive somehow, and I wouldn’t mind taking notes from you,” She informed him, taking a small glance over to the dead rabbit that lay in front of her to prove her point. Her small tail wiggled slightly in happiness as she got up, “You’re welcome to lead the way. Not sure I can be much use to you at the moment but, even if I don’t catch anything it’d still be a nice lesson.” She assured, giving a small, playful grin in his direction.
