you tore down our tree so now we will tear you down!!

His brother's shrug does nothing to help solve the mystery. Even the bone dry sense of humor forces out a sarcastic har-har-har from him as he followers after Shinrei. "Wadin' round like a fish would be better than the dawdlin' you do," Jiro teases back, sticking out his tongue even if his brother doesn't see it.

Some more splashing turns his attention away from bullying Shinrei to the muddy creek bed. A few moments ago, the water had been flowing rather generously and now, as he looked to his paws, he notices how slow its became. His weight presses him down into the mud further as he looks up to where the sound of splashing water comes from. A few more steps before he stops. The sound of something heavy being dragged across mud and then a rough surface makes him more confused. What was this noise?

Plunking through the mud, Jiro doesn't stop until the sight of a wall of lumber comes into view. From the top of it, he can see water on the other side as it tries to push through openings in the wall of tree trunks. His head tilts to the side, pale gaze looking around. What had made this? Tilting his nose to scent the air, he notices the musky scent that makes him twinge a bit. "What do ya think it is?" Jiro asks, taking a few more steps forward before looking to his brother once more for confirmation on what the animal could possibly be.
