The clock is ticking faster, as we live

Beauregard felt ready, calm as he looked upon Gilgamesh. There appeared to be more to the man’s decision than what he was saying, not that Beau minded that too much. He would come to know each of the leaders here in time, and their stances with Norad. But for now, he wanted to keep things light and get a feel for them in other ways. Battle was a great way to give a feel for someone’s strength after all. So when Gil came forward, the younger and new alpha prepared himself for the attack to come. The frozen ground would make larger lunges harder, for risk of slipping in the ice and mud, but…

Gilgamesh lets his weight carry him forward, and Beauregard shifts his body to bear the brunt of Gil’s attack as the man slams into him. Feeling his body slide in the mud, Beau steadies himself and reaches out a foreleg to wrap around Gil’s own and attempt to yank him forward. To counter Gil’s jaws, Beauregard brings his head up suddenly, knowing his opponent is taller, and tries to click them closed so that those fangs can do no damage. But in the middle of his attack a body is forcing its way between them, and Beau’s head glide’s up over Arotrias’ body and cuirass. Well, that was one way to avoid a bite!

Beau takes a couple of forced steps back, aiming to recollect himself. Blind, his fox companion, uses this opening to dive at Artorias’ back leg and sink her tiny fangs into his ankle. She wouldn’t be able to do much due to her size against a dire male, but her duty was to aid Beau in his endeavors. And aid him she would!
