Caught in the Act

The boy continued to hold himself still as the two creatures romped and played. Eventually the russet female wolf caught sight of him and stopped. Her posture was instantly rearranged into a show of angry dominance. The gecko seemed surprised before slithering between her front feet. Were they actually friends? Dayton almost felt like laughing. "You there, who are you and why are you watching us." The girl snapped, her tail held high in a regal pose. This too was a bit amusing. His weaker, more submissive side made him want to cower, but his practical side only smiled. This female didn't seem cruel at all. In fact, she looked much like Misha - the darling female that had recently become his mate. Dayton, feeling a sudden and explicable surge of confidence, bowed to the creatures. His paws dug into the sand a bit as he moved. "Sorry to frighten you, ma'am," he said, his eyes transfixed by the resemblance. She really did look like Misha. They could have been twins. But he cleared the thoughts from his mind for the time being. "I didn't mean to startle you, and I wasn't exactly watching you either. I simply heard noises and came to investigate." Dayton kept his stature very calm and passive, with a slightly drooping tail and ears that swung out to either side. He moved his burnt amber gaze to the gecko and gave him a smile. "And nice to meet you as well, sir, I must say I'm impressed by your ability to speak to our kind." Some part of him flinched a bit as he spoke, as if his mind was chastising him. Talking to a gecko, are you losing your mind? Except he wasn't. The little guy could speak their language. It was incredible. With that, he returned his attention to the female. "And what might your name be?" It was really quite a miracle that he wasn't running away yet. But the recent events - joining a pack and finding love - had taken their toll on the young boy. He wasn't as frightened as he normally would have been. He was more cordial now, better at communicating. And hopefully this female would lighten up to him for that reason. Walk. "Talk." Think. |
