F "Oh for fucks sake." He hisses between his teeth. A snort, issued from his nose like a bull was the only thing that preceded his sudden attack, jaws snapping and clamping shut on a vole that had the misfortune to be wandering past. He snaps at it like a reptile, tossing his head back and letting the rodent slither down his gullet in one large piece before heaving out a huffed sigh. ....Okay. Some tension expelled. It would do, for now. Still, he is not here for business but rather, a social call. It has been a while since he last saw hide nor hair of the brutish man whom he had absolutely obliterated during the baking contest, and some small part of him wishes to see how he's doing. You know, to check up on him. Not because he cares or anything! Of course not. Just. You know. Just in case! He most certainly has not packed a veritable treasure trove of items into that satchel for healthcare or medicine or chicken feed. No way, no sir.

H He huffs, and turns the bag over to let the rest of it's contents spill out onto the ground-- a bunch of cracked corn and grains. For the stupid chicken. Don't say he never did anything nice! ...Not that he says this aloud, m,ind you. Instead, he simply does all of this and then folds the now-empty bag back over his shoulder and neck. He knows that i would otherwise be rude to just drop his shit and leave, so he shuffles uncomfortably while he fights with himself internally, eventually coming to the conclusion that he should attempt a conversation. "..So..how was your summer?" Look, it's more than most get out of him.

H He wrinkles his lip as the chickens continue to swarm, and had these been any other creature he would have had himself a snack. Instead, he carefully steps over and around them, which brings him even closer to the ember-colored bear of a man. He follows his gaze, back to his home and the skins laid out. "I am already restless," he admits, lifting a dainty little paw and giving it a brief shake, "I am used to travel but if I stop now, I will not want to get back up when I must." he rolls his shoulders a bit, the action being followed by a sigh as he smooths out his seemingly-permanent scowl,"...I think I would much rather go for a quick hunt. Hunting in woodlands provides me a different challenge than hunting in open fields." He turns on his heel, but pauses to wait for Sund without a word. Assuming--rather, expecting-- him to come along. Sure, he might already have some extra meat in reserve--but what was better than fresh? Nothing, that's what. "You may keep whatever extra, if there is any." Provided the hunt is a successful one. "If not...well, at least I can burn off some of this energy." He'd probably vibrate in place if he had less control. "C'mon. I'm not going to linger any longer than I want to." Uh, wasn't it 'any longer than I have to'? ....Ah well.

Leprechauns The soft scuffling of tiny paws can be heard as if mischievous children are racing through the undergrowth and sprinting north. They snicker as if they have won a pot of gold. To interact with the leprechauns, please post in #updates |
MISCHIEF A glimpse of red hair catches your eye amidst the tall grass. When you finally chase down the tiny little men, you find them frolicking in a pile of shimmering, metallic objects. One particularly rotund leprechaun sits on the gold coins and trappings, a pipe in his mouth furling with smoke. Its scent is intoxicating. In one of his hands is a tiny hammer, in the other is a needle, and in front of him is an alien concept: a charming pair of leather shoes.Offer the leprechaun a gift to receive a useless pair of human shoes. Attempt to take a piece of gold, and the leprechaun stabs your wolf’s paw with the needle before vanishing (along with all the treasure) into thin air! |
W "Not edible," he states aloud, perhaps for posterity. As if Sund is taking notes or something. He snorts, disappointed and annoyed with this turn of events but no worse for wear. "I take it that's not a normal occurrence in the Redwood?" what would he know, after all--he is an outlander, an outsider, someone who's knowledge of this land is minimal at best. He learns as he goes, yes, but this? He doesn't suspect this is common....or normal at all, actually. Hm, a thought for another time. He turns to proceed to stalk into the treeline, a flicker of rosegold and white against the crimson and dark of the redwood. "So tell me of your hunting exploits." he finally states, glancing over his shoulder. So dainty, so delicate almost--petite and waif-like, one could easily assume he's little more than a pretty face and svelte little body, but alas, they would be dreadfully mistaken. "My old hunting grounds helped me with many things. Boar among the most common. Sure, they were tough as shit and they were likely to gore the fuck out of anybody who wasn't paying attention but I got in good medical practice," he pauses, and thinks for a moment. "Come to think of it, boar are native around here, right? We should get one." Just...the two of them? SURE WHY NOT. Either he is overly confident and bordering on mad, or aggressive enough to offset it. ...Probably the second one. He was not called 'a dragon' for the hell of it, after all. Dragonsblood ran in the family, and were one to meet any of his littermates, they would see he is not at all an outlier.
