Grumpy Gus

Ezra grinned a little wider and his tail wagged when Resin revealed that her teeth were similar to his own. He was the only one out of his siblings that had this trait and as far as he knew none of the other pups or adults in their pack did either so it was just cool to find someone to relate to, even if it was just a little thing. However, before he could start bombarding her with questions, she reminded him of the fact that he was in trouble and his ears flicked guiltily, his grin fading so his expression could turn more serious. He didn't want her to think he didn't take it seriously after all - he did want to make up for what he had done, he was just a bit easily distracted perhaps.

He wasn't exactly looking forward to patrolling and protecting the stinky, wooly creatures that they kept by the castle, but it made sense that a punishment wouldn't exactly be fun. All in all it wasn't the worst punishment he could have imagined - not like he was going to have to go sit in his room or something - so he just nodded in agreement to that. When he was assigned to train with Artorias he was surprised. Was that part of the punishment or just something he should be doing? Either way, he would get to work on fighting stuff and he wouldn't have to train with his father again right away so it felt like a win win. Plus, he had sparred with Artorias before and he liked the other boy well enough so that was fine by him.

"Yes, ma'am," he replied with another nod. Hopping to his feet, he added, "I'll get started right away! I'll do a lot better, I promise!" He turned to head back toward the castle, but quickly stopped himself, looking back toward Resin with another grin. "Um... thank you." With that he hurried off, calling, "Aquila! Lets go! We have to find Artorias!" The eagle took off with a strong flap of his wings, gliding down to follow just above the speckled boy.
