Satu was in the middle of stalking a pika in the rocky forest around sunset falls when the call came. The little short-eared lagomorph had finally popped out of hiding and relaxed, nibbling on plants as it bounced further and further from safety... it froze at the predatory sound, but as it faded away it went back to it's nibbling. Satu, however, bounded up from her hidden crouch, startling the pika into bounding away, but she ignored it. Self-defense lessons? That was much more interesting than hunting. Sure, there were pregnant or nursing wolves who couldn't hunt for themselves who would really appreciate the meal even if it was small, but Song had said that students needed to attend classes. She promised herself she would hunt afterwards to make up for it. Bounding up to the small group, Satu spotted her cousin among them and grinned at her. But manners dictated she introduce herself to the teacher before anything, so she quickly scanned the remaining three wolves, none of whom she recognized. One heavily pregnant female, a yearling female, and a male - the call had been obviously masculine, so Satu bounced up to him. "Hi!" she greeted him. "I don't think we really met before... I'm Satu. I'm Novella's cousin. It's nice to meet you! I'm really looking forward to your lesson," she chattered quickly before turning and bouncing over to Novella without waiting for an answer. She didn't want to hold up the lesson by making him feel obligated to make small talk, so she quickly seated herself by her younger cousin with another excited grin for the girl. |
