tug o' war!

Lots of things washed ashore on Obsidian Beach. Some edible and others not, but in Ajax's opinion this was a whole 'nother prize entirely! He dragged the hefty, sodden rope along with gritted teeth, leaving a long snakey line in the sand as he went. It was heavy but oh so chewable, strong and sturdy with intertwined fibres that would make pulling it apart an absolute delight! He couldn't wait to start giving it a good chew, put his growing puppy teeth to use except that- he paused and looked conspiratorially over his shoulder.

There were a lot of pups about, some might wanna take this from him. He didn't mind sharing too much but...he'd found it first, only seemed fair to keep it all to himself.

Except that it soon became obvious such a feat would be easier said than done. He saw two shapes approaching, pups from the Pirate's eldest litter and their eyes were set squarely on the prize. He couldn't really blame them since he'd done the same, gone all bug eyed and eager but...His fox tail flagged high behind him, wagging, sending droplets of water flinging as he muttered out words between clenched teeth. He wasn't gonna let go of this rope so easily, they'd have to make him.

"Iz moine." He declared, ready to haul back at any moment.
