skirting dangerously close

Their bit of a vacation was a good breather from the back to back matches, stress and anger Azure had fought through over the last season. In no rush to hurry home, the pair travelled further - skirting right past the Pirate's flimsy borders and into the adjacent briar patch in search of a filling meal. Both Azure and Sirius were competent and skilled hunters, but fighting through a thicket of briars was neither direwolf's idea of a good chase or hunt. Deciding instead to let the prey come to them, they began working on a trap that could hang between the spiked vines and ensnare whatever they could bait into it.

Azure had collected a few of the thinner vines as well as some sturdy branches to craft a frame from. Setting the vines aside, he picked up one of the four sticks and began to work at carving a point at it's base, sharp enough to drive into the ground to hold the eventual snare. "I doubt they even noticed us pass by." He spoke conversationally as he worked, disdain clear in his voice. The pirates had attempted to protect their borders when he had come through, but Az was sure that Sparrow's new litter had each of them in much too deep to worry about the adjoining territories.
