Beware the bored fox

Honestly, he had been so caught up in making sure he didn't trip and send himself tumbling over one of the tree roots or some of the thick brush that he'd completely missed the smaller creature till it popped up in his path and began speaking to him. The sound made him stop in his tracks and his silvery eyes popped up to land on the fox with surprise. He'd never actually seen a fox speak in a language he could understand and most certainly had never held a conversation with one so for a moment he was just dumbfounded by the whole interaction. Was this all a figment of his imagination? Had he gotten so utterly lost and stuck in these creepy woods that he had actually lost his mind? No, he didn't think so. With a closer look he decided the fox was indeed real and had somehow learned how to speak with him. Ulric chuckled at the comment and let his large paws settle on the ground once again. "Oh, I'm no alpha... Not yet at least. Perhaps one day." Although that dream was beginning to feel farther and farther away, but there were other, more important things taking place of that dream in his mind so perhaps it wasn't all bad. "As for how I ended up here... I'm trying to get to a place that's on the other side of all of this and thought that maybe I might be able to cut through instead of going around." He gestured at the mess he was currently picking through with one of his front paws, a sigh passing his lips. "That clearly has gone very well for me." He'd make it eventually, it was just very slow moving over all. He refocused his eyes on the fox again with a curious lift of his brow. "How about you? Why are you hanging around this place?" |
