Ajax stopped a paw down hard and savoured the sound of the dry, crisp leaves crunching under paw. It wasn't quite as satisfying as splashing about the in the shallows, but it was a close enough second. More than enough to make the trip out here worthwhile, that and he had the bestest company in the form of his buddies Scald and Rexx. The pirates were all just one big family at this point and for what it was worth, they might as well have been his brothers. If not in blood than certainly in arms. Kneading on the spot, he happily crunched and squashed all the fallen leaves under paw. Knowing his playmates such peace wouldn't last, whenever they all got together someone always started a fight. Sometimes it was him, sometimes it was one of them. Didn't really matter in the end, no one was keeping count. Still, he couldn't help but notice a lot of leaves were the same colour as his fur. All orange and bright, dappled with splodges of brown where they were starting to die. He turned around on the spot, and dug his paws into the leaf litter before promptly kicking them up into the air, making it rain leaves like an april shower. If some landed on Rexx's or Skalds faces then...oh well. No harm done and they knew him well enough by now to realise he was just playing, doing as a puppy did best. |
