"De Ah-ma-dah, huh?"
I repeated with a mouth already full, busily chewing on fur and bone. 'The Armada... This is the first i've heard of that pack. Not that I've really made it a point to learn anything of any of the packs around here. With that being said, I know that I did hold up my side fo the bargain, I would have to make my way around south starting tomorrow.'
I swallowed. This guy was known in a lot of different places it seemed. Maybe that would be something that I could use to my advantage later on.
"I'll be sure to remember."
I threw the comment back at the titan while I made a grab for another bite of the small game. Just in this one meeting, I found out so much. Dire wolves being around the area, at least 3 or 4 packs were around here. Hell... maybe he mentioned 5?? My teeth cracked through another set of bones, the ribs. The feeling of something warm going down to my gullet drew chemicals of excitement and I really could care less how I looked after that was set. The meal was gone in a matter of minutes, and my stomach already wanted more but looking back at the man who stood before me and remembering that this wasn't something that he HAD to do made me suddenly feel smaller than I was. I gazed down at my paws and sighed.
"Thank you for the meal. It'll surely hold me over for another day."
My voice was quieter than before. Partly because I was about to ask for another catch and had forgotten my manner about being thankful for what was already given as a gift to me... the other part upset at myself for being such a pussy at not trying to sweeten the deal in my favor. I clicked my teeth together, holding my tongue and swallowing the feeling of greed. My head dipped to the height of my shoulders in a small gesture of thanks before gazing thoughtfully over at the bird. That sure was one hell of a pet. I couldn't help but notice my mouth starting to drool as I stared at the creature, even going so far as to take a step in it's direction and holding that position for a moment before remembering where I was and what I was doing. 'No no... Can't eat the bird. Can't eat the bird.' I thought, still waving on what I was deciding to do. I grinned sneakily and made an attempt to bound and pounce on the bird anywho, fully intending on missing and hoping it would just fly away and remove temptation.
I laughed for a moment before looking up at the sky. The sun was high now. The day just beginning. I didn't want to be in this area for long and needed to keep moving to find more pieces for my distiller before noon. Taking a deep, slow inhale through my nose, I turned to Sirius, exhaling on my sentence.
"Well then, I best be moving on..."
I spoke, bending to grab my small makeshift skin pouch as I did so. I gave another nod to Sirius, flicking my tail softly behind me.
"I enjoyed our meeting, Sirius. I'll hope to have something for you soon."
My voice was slightly skewed by the sack but still audible. After looking at him for a moment more, I took off running back into the field using the sun's rising position in the sky to guide me southwest. "Speech"
