tug o' war!

Rexx was looking to stir mischief - but that seemed to be his hobby every waking moment. The large boy stalked the obsidian sands of the beach, toes splaying in the soft ground. His tusks were growing every day, even if it seemed so slow for him. It just felt painful to its core - the throbbing in his jaw keeping him up a great deal of the night, and the stabbing aches of his crystal spines growing outwards. Who knew it hurt so bad to just..grow up? Maybe it would be better to stay a troublemaking pup forever. But he knew that wasn’t realistic. He was going to be a troublemaking adult, for sure. But for now he relished in the freedoms - and the not-so-freedoms - of being a carefree child. The familiar figure of the pup he’d met at the Pirates’ meeting came into his line of vision, his long foxy tail with that strange bone blade wagging in the air. Not that it phazed him, his eyes lit up with intrigue at the strange boy. Scald wasn’t far behind - after all, what was better than doubling the trouble? - so he waited for the lanky quilled boy to approach with him. His nub tail wagged as the boy proclaimed the soggy rope in his mouth to be his, and a mischevious smirk lit up Rexx’s maw. "You wanna play a game of tug o’war for it, then?" He said, his voice not quite reaching the timbres of his father, still croaky and childlike. He sank into a play bow, grinning widely and inviting the younger boy to partake in the game with him and Scald. "Whoever wins gets to keep it, fair and square!” Who said Rexx couldn’t play fair? Or even Scald for that matter? But who was he kidding, they were pirates - they didn’t care that much about fairness and all that stuff. |
