Grey shrugs, then trots out of the cave, huffing at Asra to indicate that he should stay there. He goes a few feet into the woods, then shifts, the cracking sounds of shifting bones and the tearing sounds of muscle absorbed by the trees. He sighs and rolls his shoulders, stretches, then shifts back. Yep. Just as painful as ever.
He trots back to the cave and huffs once more.
asra looked up " hah?!" he yelped. " where they hell did you go and what did you do?"
Grey laughs, then indicates that Asra should join him on the floor.
asra jumped down and continued to sit, " what is it bud?"
Grey knocks Asra down, then curls up around him, keeping him warm for the night.
asra gasped a bit at first, but soon nuzzled into the large wolf
The next morning, Grey gets up, yawns, stretches, then nudges Asra awake, tail wagging to indicate happiness.
asra woke, realizing the wolf had woken him to early before the sun had set again "don't move too much bud, the light hurts.." he mumbled
Gently, Grey takes Asra's hand in his teeth and starts tugging, growling playfully.
" i cant go into the light bud!" he said and pulled back, his weak smile trying to get the wolf to understand
Grey laughs, realizing. Slowly, he tugs a piece of black cloth from the back of the cave, draping it over Asra. He looks at Asra, amused.
" Thanks," he said softly and chuckled " com'er" he said and scratched his ears
Grey growls playfully once more, tugging on the hand again.
" alright alright!" he said and stood " where to?" he said
Grey looks bemused.
Where do you think? his face says.
he chuckled " right, home." he said and lead the way " its a small cabin but im sure you'll manage. we can even share the bed if you'd like."
Grey snorts and shakes his head side to side, like a golden retriever would to dry itself off. He lets go of the hand and bounds out of the cave.
he laughed and lead the wolf to its new home.
as they got there, asra let the wolf make itself at home. he got to letting thumper, the extremely fluffy rabbit out. " go play," he said to it
Grey sniffed around for a while, investigating. Once he saw the rabbit, he looked to Asra for permission to go play.
asra nodded his head " easy, he startles quickly" he said
Grey nods and carefully goes over to Thumper. He investigates him for a moment, then seems to nod. Grey chuckles, then starts chasing after it, the bunny letting him almost catch it before bounding away. Before long, the poor bunny got tired, and Grey gently picked it up and brought it back to Asra, amusement sparking in his eyes.
asra chuckled " thank you," he said and put his forehead onto the wolf " gotta name bud?" he asked as he put thumper up to rest and eat.
asra worked around the house to fix something to eat for him in the wolf, at the time drinking something dark, almost like blood…
Grey looks at his beautiful blue-grey pelt, and snorts as if to say What do you think my name is?
asra has to think for a moment "grey?" he asked rehtorically. he sets down a small bowl of meat scraps and starts cooking some beef in the oven
Grey nods, then goes and devours the meat, looking reproachfully at Asra like Really? You think that'll be enough to keep me from eating Thumper? I'll need more than that.
