i recall once on the church steps

He laughed, pulling back his head once he realised his error. His arms still around her, he went cross-eyed looking at his bone. His expression one of some regret as he let out a soft sigh and dropped his prize. If anybody understood his possessiveness over food, it was Hazel. She knew what it was like to be hungry all the time.

Wasting no time, Hazel returned his roughhousing, going for the bone the same time he dropped it. Which meant she had no resistance to grab his prize. “Hey!” he laughed, realising what she had done.

But Hazel’s attention wasn’t for the delicious bone, but something else entirely. He squinted at her as she pointed out his ‘pointy’ state. She wasn’t the first one to observe it. “ I saw a lion, and a tiger” he shot back, his eyes dancing. He wasn’t sure if she would believe him, and his witnesses had gone and run off! Terrible, really.

“We could stick a whole porcupine on you” he teased, his eyes dancing. Otherwise.. Hm. “Maybe we could raid Grandpa’s supplies, he’s always crafting stuff” he suggested. A much lesser offence then trespassing. Cough, cough, erhm. Who here would do that?
