Pumpkin Patch Pals

Mercury was doing rounds in the castle grounds. The Hallows territory was almost as familiar to him as his own paws. Certainly, it was starting to feel a lot more like home. It was a nice feeling, knowing how familiar the paths were becoming to him. He could see himself living out his entire life here. If only life would stop throwing him curveballs.

He was just coming up towards the greenhouse, when he came across the sight of the brown wolf and her prize. He paused, taking in the full of it. There was Talyssa, on her haunches, tongue out panting. And beside her, was one of the biggest pumpkins he had ever seen. It was almost as big as the pup was! He trotted forward, tilting his head as he admired pup and pumpkin. “Making friends, are we?” He asked, amusement in his eyes as he came to a stop on the other side of the pumpkin. He took a seat, and leaned on the other side of the pumpkin. Luckily, it made a sturdy rest and he was careful not to put too much weight on it. Just the thought of sticking a hole in her prize was enough to lead him to caution.
