When Ghoul wiggles his tail, Rawhide laughs-- soft and bubbly-- before swatting at it. But then he talks about a deal with the devil and Rawhide looks at him with huge, wide eyes, her ears forward and her little body shaking.

"A demon!?" She gasps. Touches her nose to his-- or tries to. "You're so cool! Tell me about d'demon!"
