I was just hangry.

Deimos smirked a bit at the girl's irritation at his warning to be careful on the cliffs. It was always the pups that had the most blind confidence despite most certainly not having the abilities or strength to back it up. It was something he always enjoyed about pups and it never failed to amuse him. Inferna was very much focused on the task at hand–reinforcing how hungry the girl was, most likely–and she questioned what they needed to do first. "First, we pick a target," he whispered, scanning over the herd of goats with a critical eye. The one closest to them would be an obvious choice, but it was very close to a precarious looking cliff so he wasn't confident in being able to bring it down without getting one of them hurt.

He lifted a paw to point out one further to their right that had begun to move up onto a piece of flatter land to get to a patch of grass. "I think that one will be our best bet. Stay here and I'll circle around to the other side where those trees are," he told her quietly, pointing out where he was going to position himself. "It doesn't take much to get them going so when you see me in position over there you run out at them to startle them and try to drive that one toward me, okay?" In truth he was ready to leap out and take the goat down regardless, but he wanted her to feel involved as well. With his instructions given he got back to his paws and turned to quietly move through the trees, keeping a little distance from the goats to keep from alerting them to his presence. Once he was in his new hiding spot he leaned around a tree to get Inferna's attention and gave her a wave with his paw to signal her that he was ready.
