Eyes were wide with unabashed curiosity as he watched Araceli. What a strange creature she was, so pretty and yet so different all at the same time! Though Anthem was easily frightened of strangers, often wary of them even after warming up to them, once he decided someone was good, it seemed his trust would never fade. Even if he was harmed or mistreated somehow. This girl had earned his liking and trust, and so he watched her with a silly grin and a gentle wagging of his tail, so enraptured by something so simply as eating a snake.
She seemed skilled at it, and seemed to nudge some of the meal towards him. Strange. He sniffed at it warily, but quickly moved to grasp the thing in his jaws. Setting it down, he would tear gingerly at the flesh, avoiding the scales that felt strange in his mouth. The meat was not bad, only different.. and he would look up at her with a soft giggle after gulping down some of the meat. "Not bad," he stated surely. "But don't want to eat all the time."
