All The Little Things

While out looking for berries, Chimera had been forced to run off a young bear. It had been easy business as young bears were skittish things. Once the ursine was out of the area, the big brute began plucking mulberries from the branches of a tree. He only wanted red berries and firm black berries. The green and white ones would be left to ripen. The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice, he'd been told.

With a decent haul of mulberries, the man made his way back to the clearing beside the river where he and Reila set up camp. As he walked down the game trail, a fox crossed his path and that fox had a fat hare between its jaws. A growl from Chimera made the fox drop its catch and hurry quickly away. With a chuckle, Chi picked up the rabbit and practically pranced back to camp, pleased as punch.

Once back, he noted that Reila was there and that she was already preparing fish over the fire. Coming up beside her, he dropped the rabbit at her elbow and the little sack of berries closer to her paws. Chimera then sprawled out on his belly, hind legs stretching out behind him. The brutes thick, obsidian tail lashed slowly back and forth across his thighs. "A fox was nice enough to catch us a rabbit," he informed her with a shrug.
