My know it all

What he heard was a call for his father, instead, what this wolf was going to get was a mighty, loud Shrike! The boy didn't think, he just acted. The herb he had in his mouth, something he had been carrying around to show Starling, cause he thought it was neat, had been forgotten, dropped, and the boy went thudding across the land. Of course in his mind he was quiet, careful. In reality? You could hear this pup coming from quite the distance away. A stampeding herd might have made less noise than the rather careless son of Bass and Wren who went crashing through the area of the rapids to where the stranger was waiting.

...and strange was right! Shrike's bi-colored eyes would widen when he saw the man. A giant! A blue giant! He would gasp, running up to the man. Oh, no sense of danger here. A wide grin was on his face, tail wagging back and forth a mile a minute as he looked up at the man. "Dude you're blue!" Obviously, Shrike. "Do you taste like water? Or a fish? No, that's silly... you've got to taste like a berry!" The pup would nod. "That's why you're blue, right? So you can taste good." Oh goodness, somewhat get Bass in here quick.

"Hear me talk," 'But read my thoughts!'
