All Fun and Games Until Someone Gets Hurt

<Yukonclawnelius> It was quiet. Sort of quiet. Anyways. Her eyes lingered on the thing between her paws; feathers and fluff and blood. The bird was mutilated and torn apart. She knew how to kill, alright. The hunt had been less so; feathers stuck to the edges of her lip and the ragged puppy slurped it away, growled, and dug her teeth into her kill. Lifted it up-drag, drag, drag.... it was a large crow, and she had its head between her jaws. Her tail was bristled. Rigid. Mine. Mine.


<Kayxer> Tail flicked, swayed in glee as the adhd of a girl sprang into the courtyard from... well fuck knows where! Only tell tale sign was a was that she was soaking wet. Even being mostly short-fured apart from some places, it dripped off her frame. Only, it wasn't just water. The liquid was tinted a red hue. A mix of blood, and gunk clumping her into a scruffy mess. Tornado child charged into the scene spitting up dirt behind her, and oh poor SOB was the first in her sights. Lips curled and the grungy thing charged at her sibling quit silently. A humorous sight really, everything about her appearance made you think all kinds of wrackit would be pooring from her. Growls, whines, barking.. SOMETHING. Her level of energy was undeniable. Yet, not a peep was made as she bulldozed in SOB. Her chest was used like a ram to tackle her siblings head, and topple them both to the ground. Guts and grim from her most recent kill certainly smearing all over her poor sibling. Only after contact was made, would Tox ripple into a fit of growls. All playful, though.. it was a bit hard to tell.


<Yukonclawnelius> Perhaps charging a puppy like Freckles wasn't the best idea; not since the pits, anyways. Her mangled face contorted into a snarl, and she dropped her bird to meet her sibling head on--there was the momentary clash of fangs and Toxic would probably find herself bitten. The growls that rippled from her sibling were playful, perhaps? But those that tore from Freckles were far from it. She flipped to her feet, because when the other dog was down on his back, she'd killed him. There would be none of that here. SOB stared menacingly at her sister and snarled, before stepping forward to pick up her bird again, and: "Cunt mom left us. Mine. My kill." She closed her eyes. Females were liars. They'd leave. She brushed past her sister and rrrrowled, a warning. A quiet warning.


<Esaki> Dent had been roaming the territory. His still gangly limbs would flick smoothing beneath him, carrying him far with ease. He was starting to get taller now. That was thanks to his father and grandfathers genes no doubt. He'd huff and groan as his fifth limb curled up slightly to avoid the ground beneath. Sometimes he wished he'd have better control of that paw...and so he'd test himself. He'd break into a languid trot, his slender form stretching as his paws raked the earth in a pattern. His 'fifth' limb would fit neatly beside his right front paw and move as if he had one leg. He'd keep that up for a while until he came upon his sisters bickering. Pausing from a slightly higher point he'd eye them from afar. Not wanting to get into there fight...just yet.


<Kayxer> Eyes were focused, honed in on her sibling as she charged. There was a gate way there, yea. Plenty of time for SOB to react. But that held true on both ends. Not to say Tox had any intent beyond play, but. Her lack of focus on a normal day was not the same when it came to setting up traps, pulling pranks, or.. well, even sparring. Her eyes would narrow as SOB reacted, and with a grin of pure bemusement and pleasure she pulled slamed her skull down into SOB's oncoming jaws. SO! Instead of meeting fang to fang, she left her sister with a love-able head butt to the face. This is how Tox says hello i love you. As far as Dent went... Well, needless to say after ramming full speed into SOB's face with head, she had likely stumbled over and not at all noticed her other sibling lurking in the background.


<Yukonclawnelius> Freckles snarled furiously as Toxic hit her with her head--and the dog who had killed snapped her fangs into Toxic's fur. No blood, no skin torn--but a serious warning. "No." She huffed and tilted her head down, grabbed her bird again and curled up her tail for a moment...before, with an exhale, she relaxed. Her sigh came with a ripple of her flesh and relaxing movement; her ear stubs pinned back and the mangled-faced dog spotted her brother. Brothers. Amiably enough, for her, she crossed--and Freckles, SOB, gave a greeting lick to Dent, and a soft nuzzle to Harvee--before she again lifted her bird. Harvee looked like her. She wondered what his eyes were colored. Blue, like hers?


<Esaki> Dent would simply watch, his face rather unamused but obviously attentive. He'd simply stand and watch. He surely noticed SOB's temper flaring as well as his other sisters playful antics. He'd huff some when Sob warned Toxic to back off...What would Toxic do now? She seemed to be a nerve-pusher. His shoulder would twitch when Sob came over and gave a lick to the both of them. He'd return the lick without a second thought. Though it may have seemed a bit colder than usual. "Nice bird you have there..." He'd gesture to Toxic. "She tryin' to take it or just playing?" He'd ask flatly, his two tails held motionless between his back legs.


<Kayxer> Spastic little shit obviously had her own problems. It was like each child had something entirely different off about them. Tox? Well... she was mentally underdeveloped in the emotional department. She had the emotional concept of a 4 year old little boy. Siblings = play toys. mother = food. dad = learning tool. That was pretty much it. Which was only one reason she hadn't felt the same turmoil the rest of her siblings were feeling over there mothers departure. Ohwell! Only part that truely sucked for her was that it was ruining her fun and games! Even SOB was being a fucking stick in the mudd! Psshh. When teeth met her in a threat, the girl rolled and kicked out at her sibling. Likely not even making contact, simply.. a reaction. A growl even followed as she motioned, but after that? Nothing but a huff of disappointment! Pfftt. White girl rolled back to her rump, tail flicking behind her as she glared off at nothing in particular. Hrm hrm... Well. She WASN'T after the crow, but if that was what she needed well? With a roll of her shoulders, little shit would take advantage of backs turned and attention focused more on greetings between SOB and the newly arrived Dent. If she managed to get within distance unseen, she'd rear her head back then strike the right side of SOB's rump! A nip! A distraction! Before Tox would roll around the opposite side, to snatch up the crow and dart away. MUAHAHAHAHA! Fuck of a girl would mummble as she nabbed it up, "-USH! P-RAY!" Yessss Playyy! PLAY DAMNIT ALL OF YOU!


<Yukonclawnelius> SOB was very still as her brother licked her chin. If he'd touched the gnarled flesh, she'd have snapped. He was fine as it was, though. Her tail spun up in the air, bristled, rigid and dominant, as her sister sped over. Nipped. The distraction--made SOB scream, turn, snap. A flash in her eyes. Don't be such a pussy! C'mon! She shuddered. Her mouth opened. It wasn't funny, she wanted to say. Stop. She didn't like physical violence--the jokes and the play. Since the pit, those instincts had...chaged. It made her tilt her head. "Take it. I can--caaan, Kill again. No problem." Big problem. "Will kill again, I --guesss. Dent--are you--hungry?"


<Esaki> Dent would lift his head and widen his eyes like 'ohhhhhh you dun it now' just before Toxic took a nip at Sob's rump. He'd shake his head and lower his brows. His lap lifting to scratch at an itch he had along harvee's nape. Flea-bitting his 'sleeping brother' he'd watch his sister dart off with the others crow...if she managed to that is. Either way, he'd offer a soft laugh. And a few words to Sob, "Try to be friendly Sob..she...she doesnt understand..shes just trying to have fun darlin..." He'd lick and groom Harvee's head a moment before he'd exhale heavily and shake his head some. He, unlike Toxic, understood that SOB went through something...awful. He seen how the pack had changed. He noticed how much...closer...every dog was. He noticed. It...was all so unsettling. "No Sob darlin...m' not hungry but you...are you?"


<Kayxer> Tox hardly made it but 2 feet before coming to a grinding hault. No one was following, no one was attacking. Pfft. Obviously her typical solitary antics had left her out of a lot. It left her out of a lot of the bonding most of the siblings had experienced together, and... left her out of the loop on whatever SOB had gone through. Completely unaware of what she had gone through, Tox simply assumed her mood was yet again of there departing sister. What was this!? She didn't unstand! And that frustrated her more than there attitudes, the simple fact she could not relate. Course she didn't dwell on it to long. The only thing she knew to do to cope with her own emotions, to... by-pass getting upset with there reactions, was to push some buttons more. Not really to piss them off, but... Well, let's face it. Tox was a bit of a masochist in a sense. Rather than be pissy, or upset like they were. All she cared about doing was getting SOB to attack her. GOAL SET, time to engage. Crow was dropped, and a cocky little attitude took hold of the girl. Tail flicking up and around to perk atop her rump. "What's the problem SOB? To much of a pansy to do something about it?" Jeez, Tox. Why couldn't you just go cuddle and talk like everyone else.


<Yukonclawnelius> Freckles looked at her brother, and her ear stumps twitched. Toxic was wild. SOB liked her--thought she saw some of herself in her sister, sure, but--"Fun. It isn't--fffun." A soft whine. She couldn't tear her sister's throat out like she had the Malinois mix. Her ears twitched and laid back and she frowned. Her paws shifted in the dirt. Kicked. "I aam. Yes. I'm hungry, that's why I killed. I don't know how to --hunt, but i know how to, ah, kill, I--"sssssh. Her teeth clenched and a sharp hiss shot through her snaggly teeth. "Could do something." Her tongue ran along her lip. That mangled, maimed edge. Blood. She could taste it. Don't be a pussy--are ya scared? NO. Her head lowered. And she turned to look at Harvee and Dent. She was...shaking. Mockery didn't do well. "But you woudn't--like--if I did--"


<Esaki> Dent would tilt his head to Sob. Then look on Toxic. A strong frown on his maw. Coupled with a pair of sad eyes. "Why do you say that Tox? Cause were not playing? Thats rude you know..." He'd speak as if he were talking to a very younger pup. But perhaps this would get Toxic thinking. He had seen Sob shaking...and he sought to point it out. "You see Tox? You see how shes shaking?" He'd lift his 'extra' paw to point at sob. "You see?" He'd shake his head. "Your not being very nice Toxic."


<Kayxer> Snort echoed in obvious distaste for the situation. Her tail begining thump wildly behind her. What do, what do... Claws dug into the earth below. She didn't want to talk, no... talking was serious, why were we talking? Why was she rude? Why couldn't they just have fun? Why would anyone, ANYONE wanna sit around and sob, sit around and be upset... sit around and think. Mourn, hurt.... No, she didn't want hurt THAT way. She wanted to hurt another way. That was much more reasonable. Well, to Tox that is.. She didn't want to make her sibling shake, to make her uneasy. "No.. No... I just wanna play. I wanna fight. " Hngg... Body soon found it'self rolling over where she was, simply because.. she didn't know what else to do. So.. instead, she flopped into the crow carcass and began rolling around in it. Rubbing her face into the mess and the dirt below. mmmmmm hnngg.


<Yukonclawnelius>Her breathing came slow and careful and her jaws opened. Toxic was being an ass. SOB closed her eyes, let them slide open, licked the scarred half of her face, and then, said very softly: "We can fight." Advance. Step. "Sure." Thump, thump. Her paws dragged. And a low little sound left her lips. "But I don't play when I fiiiii--" FIght turned into a low snarl, and SOB stood, watched. "I--don't play. So. Maybe find someone else...find someone else to f--fight with. Who'll--do---do that." She was afraid. If she fought--she'd kill. Fight to kill.


<Esaki> Dent would shake his head and simply allow his siblings to work shit out. At this point, he was more than likely the bigger of the three or at the least he matched there size...and he'd of course be a bit heavier what with harvee alongside him. "If you get too carried away...dont expect me to 'play nice' either..*tsk*" Foolish girls. They each had thee faults. Shaking his head he'd huff and then furrow his brows. "No....wait...Why should i let you two fight?" He'd narrow his eyes at toxic. "Why should you get what you want like some spoiled whining brat?" He'd pause and continue, "Scaring sob half to death, saying such unfiltered things....foolish."


<Kayxer> Hackles bristled in response, as vicious and serious as SOB. Though... To her, the matter of life and death it'self was all a game. Fighting, was play even if SOB didn't agree. Shown clear as day by the snarky grin that lingered across her features. Oh was she giddy! Excited beyond belief! Yes, Yeesss. Let's play. Let's fight! She'd match her sisters low menacing growl with one of her own, a more stirn looking replacing what was there before. Though, undernieth it all she was still nothing more than a kid in a candy store. "Fighting is play. Let's play." Dent's words quickly became nothing more than a whisper in the background. Fully focused on the game she was in already. With a curl of her lip, Tox pushed forward and charged her sister. A single growl echoing out as she closed in, head low and teeth parting at the last second in attempt to bite at her forlimb. Rawr rawr, time to play.


<Yukonclawnelius> Dent was good, SOB figured; her mangled face twisted into a close approximation of a smile as she looked at him. It wasn't all there; there was still a screw loose in it, but she was pulling herself together; and then--as her head turned. Tox charged. Tox growled. Tox bit her leg. SOB went deadly quiet and her pupils seemed to shrink, her iris widening; her head turned, and with no sound leaving her mouth, the capo puppy pushed her head down with jaws wide--trying to bite the back of Toxic's skull and force her to the ground. Once her teeth made contact--the same sound that had left her mouth in the arena began to leave it here: a high pitched moaning screaming-whine, curling from between her teeth.


<Esaki> Dent would stand, watching. His eyes widening as he realized he was too slow to react. Toxic was already there. Already biting. Already getting what she deserved. Sob was gone. He'd have to intervene eventually. In the last few weeks he'd become used to such a vacant look. A guttural screech and the gnashing of jaws. The sounds of fighting. Serious fighting. He'd stand, watching for a moment or two longer though...to see how Sob plans on getting back at Toxic...


<Kayxer> It was no lie Tox's skill in many things was limited.. wreckless even. She didn't always think before she acted, infact... she typically thought AS she acted. Now would really be no different. Mommentum behind her assault, the snap of teeth wasn't all she had to dish out. Her grasp landed, and her head jerked up damn near immediately. She wasn't sure where she was going with this, but up seemed plenty logical enough right? So, limb clasped between teeth she forced it up and in turn would force SOB's balance enitrely off, and back with the mommentum of her force and the loss of balance. Essentially.. She forcing her sister to roll over back by tackling her. If it worked, if her sister fell about enough that she would indeed fall, Tox would leg go of the limb and aim reaim teeth to snap around her sisters neck. If all went well, she'd let loose a muffled snarl through a full mouth. Head jerking a time or two left and right. Unlike SOB she wasn't aiming to kill her sister, but.. she also wasn't being particularly gentle either. Hohum.


<Gutter-Mutt> Mavro had been watching for a good half hour, seated off in the distance in a small patch of dead brush amongst the gravel. He finally stood as the two began fighting to stalk over and stand behind Dent, head lowered with his spine and eyes narrowed on the sisters. He was eerily silent, and made no move to stop them from ripping each other to pieces. Hmph.


<Yukonclawnelius> No, there was no working. There was none of this. Up--as she felt Tox moving up, SOB jerked her own leg back, ripping her own flesh, tearing her own skin and fur; blood ran down her leg, and as her sister was trying to make her move into a tackle, trying to flip her, SOB simply countered rather smoothly. She rammed her body forward, all out barreling her furry chest into her sister, still shreiking, still shouting--there was blood, and her face hurt anew, fire spraying along the edge of her lip. Except now, the opponent was not Miles, it was Toxic, and she had to get out--and so, as she shoved forward, she again oriented a bite--except this was slightly farther back, towards her sister's skull, the start of her neck.


<Esaki> Dents head would slooooowly turn round to watch his father. He didnt hear his father sneak behind him....though when the wind shifted, he felt as though he was being...watched..and sure enough. His wide surprised eyes would narrow to slits and he turned to lap at his fathers chin submissively. Lowering himself to the floor he'd air lick as he explained. "There...just..i told Toxic to stop tormenting Sob but...they just...started goin' at it.." He'd continue licking the air and whining. "I figured to let them go at it until it got too...serious..." He'd flinch some as if expecting a reprimand for the idea but when he noticed his father simply watching...he'd blink and turn to do as his father was doing..watching.


<Kayxer> Teeth ripped through the limb, and the next thing she knew she was

the one falling back. Though, she went fairly willingyl. Feet tucking. The

first split second was pure adrenaline, assuming the counter had been more

than just shoving her back. She had assumed teeth had punctured. But no,

not yet... Rolling body quickly turned into feet flailing and slinging up

right into SOB's oncoming jaw. Sure, she wanted her sister to harm her.. As

terrible as that sounded, that was the goal after all wasn't it? The game.

But what fun would it be if she didn't fight back, eh? Meanwhile, brother

and father alike were but a blur. A black blob that made up a fuzzy

background all around. Nothing in particular. Her adrenaline was pumping,

her heart racing. She was having to much fun.


<Kach-22> Bo was getting good at this hunting thing. And now.. Here

he was dragging, panting and dragging by a god damn swan by the neck. He

looked worn, tired and had a few little bite marks on the side of his face.

He made his way slowly over to Mavro, walking backwards to get to him. He'd

set it down and stare right into MAvro's eyes for a long moment before he

smirked, "Look. Its a big version of the Honker. " Yes, he called Geese

honkers. He didn't know what the hell they were, ok?


<Gutter-Mutt> Mavro's eyes shifted down to meet Dent's, brows knitting

some to express what little emotion was present. "Let them fight." A

daunting exhale was forced from his nostrils, in frustration. It was

obvious his gears were turning, deciding the female's fate for their

stupidity. When Bo made himself known, with a giant bird, he'd be given a

small glance and a nod.. but it didn't last long. Sorry Bo, he would eat

dinner when he was finished.


<Yukonclawnelius> SOB was screaming, but there were words. Words

warped and twisted, but there was some--something, boiling beneath the

surface, and--"I NEED TO GO HOME!" Almost like an apology. Almost. Because

when her sister kicked her face, SOB jumped forward immediately; her legs

went rigid and she couldn't see; she wasn't--she wasn't there. She needed

to go home. She needed--back. And--Toxic--it was the arena, but why was she

there? She--didn't--she just needed to go home. and so as Toxic was on her

back, SOB suddenly, savagely, lunged for her throat.


<Esaki> Dent would blink, holding his fathers gaze for a moment before he'd

blink back to the horrid fight that was amping up in front of them. He'd

tilt his head over to give bo a look of uncertainty. The 'honker' wasnt

given a glance. Instead he'd turn to watch the fight, maw parted open

slightly. He'd continue to watch, his own fur bristling. He didnt like this

but father said to watch and let them fight so...his paws were tired.

"Sob's back in that place shes afraid of..." He'd speak in a low grumble to

himself...he had gathered from the others that it was some sort

of...cage...or...area that was cold and dark and full of blood...he wasnt

there but...he knew it was a scary thing. It must have been for it to

affect the whole pack in the way it did...


<Kayxer> Flailing limbs hit point, kicking her sister in the face and..

pushing herself off like a spring board. Well.. sort of. Obviously she

wouldn't move that much, but given the way her sister reacted to things she

likely didn't move much. Which meant it was like Tox pushing off a brick

wall. After doing so, she had aimed to scamble for her feet. Hackles

bristled, and all those happy playful snarls had long since faded into

nothing. Though, she was still having way more fun than she should be being

in such a situation. Regardless, the time she had to stand just wasn't

enough to get entirely to her feet, and react. Her own teeth parting in

pure reaction as sister found a mark along the side of her neck. A tingle

ran down the white dog spine. A sense of satisfaction, pleasure even.

Hnnnggg. Hunched, practically pressed to the ground for but a momment,

before finally she pushed off the ground, and spun her head around.

Attempting to spring up and knock any leverage SOB had on her off and snap

her turn onto whatever she was able to. Needless to say, she had gotten

what she wanted. But she wasn't going to just be like Ok! I got my kicks

off, let's stop now. Naw, instead she decided to poor that adrenaline into

thrashing about in pure excitement.


<Kach-22> Bo nodded when Mavro denied his foob. But slowly, the slender mix

moved over and pressed their foreheads together then ever so softly licked

the tip of his nose before he turned and moved to watch the two fight.

Mavro said let them fight, he wasn't going to argue with the alpha. He

would lean down not and start preening dent, licking his ears and fur,

nosing into him. Clean clean clean.


<Gutter-Mutt> After what seemed like forever, Mavro would blink and let

what Dent said sink in. "Mn.." Bo's affection caught him off guard for a

monent, but he returned it.. surprisingly, before turning to slink forward

toward the two females. "Enough!" A loud, guttural bellow had him snapped

for Toxic's back, wrapping his jaws around her spine and ribs to lift her

up off the ground, and hopefully away from SOB's fierce bite. Tox, assuming

he managed, was swung to the left to skid along the gravel before eyes

snapped back to SOB, making sure she didn't advance on her sister.


<Yukonclawnelius> SOB was--she could feel it. It was close. There was

blood, there, and her teeth were showing, as she--ENOUGH! W----what. Blue

eyes cleared, mostly, and the pup was suddenly aware...Bo. Her father.

Dent. Her ear stubs lowered against her head and her head tilted slightly.

She had the recognition to be ashamed. She'd just...been--trying to kill

her sister. But Mavro was there, like he'd been in the pit. Sort of. At

first. Until they'd pulled him aside. "....I told you it wasn't a game,

To--Toxic..." It was all she could say. All she could...bring herself to

say.


<Esaki> Dent's eyes would be lockedo n the fight, but when Bo began

preening him, he'd wrinkle his nose and then close his eyes, allowing the

older male to nuzzle, pick, pluck, flea-bite, groom and fuss. He missed the

closeness. He...just let the fight scene drift off into the back of his

head. He was worried about them before but now that father was

involved...he..he deserved a bit of grooming didint he? He was a good dog?

He's lean his weight into bo and lick and nuzzle the male back

respectfully. When the loud and abrupt 'ENOUGH' was yelled by mavro

however...his head would snap to look on the fight, ears pricked and eyes

wide. Watching...interested. Comically, he'd bend his neck back to nibble

at Bo's chin before he'd look back at the fight. Hmmm.


<Kayxer> Lost in her own world, perhapes.. not to the extent of her sister.

But, it was her own nontheless. Sadly, it was a world much more pleasant

than SOB was experiencing. Course, she wasn't aware of that. But even Tox

couldn't ignore the sudden command hollered out. Everything so blurred,

grayed out around her. All but SOB, it all cleared back up in an instant.

Almost pixel looking as it did. It gave her a headache just how suddenly it

turned bright, and defined. But.. before she could really react, she was

being hoisted up and tossed aside. Initial reaction was to snap at whatever

had grabbed her, maw even parted to do so. But even if she was able to grab

ahold of anything, she realized who it was. Shit. NOW what had she done

wrong? A grunt escaped as she hit earth, but only a momment was spent

recovering herself. "D-dad..." Ears pulled back, and tail tucked. White

thing scurrying herself to sisters side, head slumped over infront of her

sister. "We were playing.. I wanted to play." She was so confused, so

unsure. Was she meant to remain in the shadows, lingering around her family

hidden and consumed in her solitary antics? Because so far anytime she

interacted with her siblings it turned out bad. She turned out bad. Oiii...

What do.


<Kach-22> Bo leaned over Dent as he preened his chin. His nose wrinkling

tightly as he did, a smile coming from his face. Ignore the soft blush on

his cheeks, guys, Mavro had never returned his affections like that before

so it was quiet an exciting little moment for the mix. Once he was certain

that Dent's head was clean he'd move to look at the other two pups. With a

snort and a snuffle he'd lean into Sob and start cleaning the blood from

her fur, holding the little lady down if he had to. She needed to relax

anyway. Yup.


<Gutter-Mutt> "That wasn't playing, Toxic." His head was held a bit higher

than usual as he addressed his offspring, ear rested back. "Freckles can't

play with you... not yet. She's still upset about what happened while we

were gone. Any of your other siblings can play. Go play with Bo. He loves

wrestling." His head was jutted in the Saluki mixes direction as a smirk

crossed his muzzle. Ha ha. "..go clean yourself up, Freckles. Relax

yourself." Sighing, he'd sit. "..Bo brough some dinner, too, of you guys

are hungry." A paw was even lifted a kneaded over his brow. Oi.


<Yukonclawnelius> Oh. She eyed all of them, but then...Bo was leaning into

her. Licking...blood. Ginger hadn't done that much to her. With pause, SOB

stared up at the saluki mix, and then her tail lowered. The tension...left.

Blood was licked from her floor, and even though she was unsure, she slowly

closed her eyes. Wagged her tail. She wanted to play sometime. But

she...couldn't, now. With a motion, she tried to get Bo to follow her over

to Mavro, where she'd nuzzle her father and huff an apology, but if that

didn't work, she'd totally just. Enjoy being cleaned. It was a bit...new.


<Esaki> Dent's head would lift when Bo left him. A soft quiet whine would

leave through his nose just before he'd get up to slink behind Bo,

following to both stay close and make sure his siblings were ok after there

fight. He'd wage his tails submissively as he snuck a few licks to

Freckle's bloodied fur. He'd have done the same to Toxic but..she was over

by father and he was not about to get in between that...nope. He'd stay

quiet for the time being...he'd not even make a move for the 'dinner' yet.

Nope. He'd slink alongside Freckles though. Sob...she...she would get

better. She would be able to play. Him too. One day he'd be able to play

like before.


<Kayxer> Head only slunk lower at Mavro's words. Her eyes lingering over

the earth' below. She simply sat there for a momment, quiet, unmoving.

Before finally, finally she would speak up. "Yes sir.. Sorry SOB." Without

even raising her gaze, the pale child would shift to her feet and depart,

if she was allowed. To sleep, or rather just lay and think, in one of her

dark hide-aways.



<Kach-22> Bo frowned as he cleaned Sob, then started to follow her to

Mavro. "Freckles we can try to play together sometimes ok? You cant hurt

me, and we'll take it super slow and easy.." He'd grin over his shoulder at

Toxic then move to take turns at preening the two puppies, SOB and Dent.

Making sure they were both comfortable and clean, "Have supper, Kids. And

Tox.. I'll play with you whenever you want to. ." Then Tox was off.
