She looked at HIM and had not taken the meats. He scowled, she was not normally this ornery. Then suddenly she was launching herself at him, her emotive silent face confusing and strange as she wrapped her forelegs around him. The energy with which she embraced him barely pushed him back, but the confusing turn of events held him still. She hadn't caught the funny brain worms, had she? Her tail was moving back and forth quickly... he had only known those movements when he had escaped for a time with his lover.
"Why... are you happy...?" It didn't make sense to him. He pushed her back to look her closely in her one eye. "You don't have the brain worms do you?" He asked seriously, suddenly forcing her mouth open to look down her throat and then inspecting her ears. He stood up quickly, wondering what had suddenly come over her.
