Strangers in strange places

Yup, the grass felt great, he had just found that perfect spot, the one that makes you sigh in rapt pleasure and as he just about to take a deep content breath he instead let out a ‘ooof’ sort of sound with an exhale as someone tripped over him.  Kotori shifted his head ready to growl at an attacker, but the one who fell next to him didn’t seem to have any intent upon evil that he could tell.

He gave Bowen a dubious look, “So, you often go walking in the woods without bothering to watch your step?” There was obvious irritation in his voice.  He got up, shaking his coat out with a resigned sigh.  She had messed up his moment!  “You ok?” The question was given in that tolerant sort of way that showed limited interest but at least he asked?
