Walk | Talk | Think She was ahead of him, but rather than her scent be drawn to him it was the other way around. Unbeknownst to him, she was prepared for his arrival, awaiting the moment he would come upon her, and oblivious Rune continued to pad about with his frosty blue eyes scanning both around him and skyward on the off chance Elliot happened to be nearby. Only once did he think he saw a glimpse of the bat as it artfully maneuvered through the thick canopy of the Gulley's trees, but it was quickly ignored as the one he sought finally materialized before him. The white of her coat contrasted with the heavy colors of the forest, though the brightness of her pink eyes appeared perfectly at home. Immediately at the sight of her, Rune smiled, a rare show happiness for the stoic man, and the whole of him seemed to focus his attention upon her. There was no point in pretending to keep a cover as he was sure her gaze had already spotted him too, and so he only hurried his pace, weaving between tree and shrub at a lope until he was practically upon her. Quickly he stopped at her side, wrapping his neck around her own as much to show affection as it was to make sure he did not barrel her over with his exuberance. His nose pressed eagerly into the soft fur there, his eyes closing in a moment of indulgence. The scent that so often assaulted him within the confines of their den felt strangely more intense now, which he thought funny considering they were in the open but at the same time it hardly mattered. Rune sighed heavily into her fur, still grinning an uncharacteristically bright grin. "I found you," he stated unnecessarily, lifting his head enough to lick across the back of one of her ears. "I'm glad I did too. I had something to ask you." |
