a day on the river

Hanako suppressed a smile when she noticed his roaming gaze, the way it lingered on her form and face, but was polite enough to not make a fuss. Besides, it would've made her a hypocrite since she'd given him a bit of an eyeful too. His long sabres were just as if not more impressive than those of the Fatalis', but she couldn't help but wonder if they made it difficult to eat. After all, how was he supposed to chew with those big teeth in the way? Pushing that silly line of thought aside, Hanako moved a little closer, standing a few feet from his side as she watched the ripples spread across the river, the rings growing larger and larger till the water calmed.

The stranger seemed welcoming enough and answered her question with ease, going onto explain that his primate buddy had taught him. She found herself imaging a wolf with monkey hands, naked and fur-less with wormy and spindly fingers, like something out of a bad dream. She wrinkled her nose, hoping that the stranger hadn't noticed. He seemed a little ambivalent about it all, perhaps a sign of his competitive side rearing it's head as he admitted that he couldn't get his stones to skip nearly as far. He might not have thought much of it, but Hanako figured the fact he could make it bounce across the water at all with a neck toss was really impressive in and of itself. After all, it didn't take a genius to figure out that wolves weren't designed to throw things, let alone use their necks in such a deft maneuver.

"Not bad at all, more than I could do for sure." Her grin was sheepish, she didn't mind dragging herself down to lift others up. But when he offered her a chance to try she lit up like the stars, eyes shining with anticipation as a big smile tugged at her lips. She danced close, tail wagging as she nodded eagerly. "Sure, I'd love to!"

She bent down and retrieved the stone, nudging it with her paws as she looked to the stranger for guidance.

"Is there some sort of trick to it? Or do I just throw?" She imagined it'd be the former, she'd thrown pebbles before and they just sunk to the bottom with no exceptions.
