Trample upon me all you wish, I won't give up

Chocolate head turned to Loccian as she spoke. A small smile appeared on his lips, pleased that she too liked this place. Blue eyes watched her as she stepped forward to get a better look at the surrounding area. He turned his head, looking in the direction of where the wind had come from as it picked up. And as soon as he had done so, rain fell from the sky, bringing with it a loud booming sound that was no longer far away, but right on top of them. His ears flattened at the sound, Thunder and lightning didn't bother him really, but the sounds annoyed him. The smile faded away as he felt something touching him. Glancing down, he noticed Loccian against him. He looked over towards the tree hollow, then nudged her along with him. Shielding her as much as he could from the rain as he pressed his body against hers, trying to comfort her from the thunder that rumbled loudly overhead. He groaned, hoping it wouldn't last very long...but by the looks of, that hope was very far away. He walked quickly, wanting to get into the den before they got completely soaked. As soon as they stepped inside, he turned and returned just outside to the entrance. He rose on hind paws, half his body disappearing from view as he stretched up to grasp something in his jaws. As he came back down, a curtain of vines weaved with moss and interlaced with strips of grasses came down with him. He pushed through it as he re entered the den, shaking his fur out away from the girl. "I've been here a while, so I figured I'd make something that would keep out the elements, and keep in the warmth. It's not so bad here, I made it as comfortable as I could." He turned to her, his cool blue eyes looking her over, ensuring she would be alright. He saw the fright in her eyes, the uneasiness in her stature. "Don't worry, you're safe here..." He said in a soft voice, reassuring her. I'll protect you... He promised silently. He walked to one side of the den, nudging out a pile of fresh moss he had collected that morning before leaving. "If you're tired, you're welcome to use this as bedding. It's fresh. And...if you're hungry, I can go out and find something to eat. There's usually a small herd of deer sheltering nearby, and a few rabbit holes that kinda dot the area here and there. Pretty easy finds." He returned to the back of the den, this part slightly deeper and smelled of freshly dug dirt. He had been working on this place for sometime now, and had tried to make it like he remembered back where he came from. This was something Ellone had taught him, and it came in handy. Looking back at Loccian, he grinned a little. "Would you like to see something cool?" He asked through the darkness. Speech Thoughts Others |
