Cheer Me Up?

[Obscure]

Kitsune walked along the dirt path, head hanging low as she listened to the creatures laugh at her size. She gave a half-hearted sniff and perked up when she detected the scent of a visiting wolf. Kitsune forgot about the other creatures as she dashed into the wolf's direction, eager to introduce the new wolf to herself and others.

Jelack trotted along the trail. He was smiling for no reason at all. The clouds covered the sun and winds bit but Jelack didn't care. He was in a good mood and he wasn't going to let anything stop his smiling. Suddenly pawsteps moving rapidly towards him made Jelack pause. He searched around for some cover to hide in. Nothing. Jelack shrugged and crouched. He make himself seem as small as possible. Even his ears were flattened against his head in Jelack's attempt to become invisible. Inwardly Jelack was laughing. He couldn't wait to see the look on that wolf's face when he pounced. Even if the wolf noticed him, Jelack wouldn't move until the wolf started to leave. His eye stared blankly ahead as the wolf dashed into view.

Kitsune had large ears, making her hearing alot more advanced. She slowed her pace as she got to where the scent was strongest. Kitsune sniffed around, then sat, waiting to hear something others couldn't hear. She layed down and curled her fox-like tail around her hind legs, continuing her wait for the wolf or any sound.

[Rykett]

She hadn't seen him. Jelack wanted to burst out laughing. This was his favorite part the tension right before the surprise. When Jelack had first laid eyes on the female, he had thought he had been waiting to ambush a fox. Foxes had no sense of humor. He'd been about to get up and walk away when he caught the supposed fox's scent. Definitely a wolf. So here he was. Jelack suddenly was a blur of motion as he barreled into the wolf yelling, "HIYA!!!"

[Obscure]

Kitsune heard the very, very soft intake of a sniff and moved out of the males' way, a grin plastered on her delicate face as she knew she foiled his surprise plan. "Hiya." she chimed, giving her head an adorable tilt, an ear of hers shading her green eyes.

[Rykett]

Jelack's muzzle was completely covered in dirt. The rest of him was covered with the dust that his lunge had kicked up. He stood shaking most of the dirt off and coughed the dirt out of his mouth. He looked at the female poker faced with his jaw slightly hanging open. Suddenly emotions in quick succession flickered though his eyes. Surprise, confusion, a tint of sadness at a foiled prank, then Jelack burst out with his joyful laugh that seemed to echo through the barren landscape.

[Obscure]

Kitsune giggled at the males' dusty look, then fell over laughing as she heard him laugh. A few moments later she sat upright, a look of joy, wonder, and something..in her mysterious eyes. "Im Kitsune, though you can call me Kit." she chirped, giving the male her sweet smile.

[Rykett]

Jelack could barely get a word in between his laugh but finally he managed to fight down the giggles. "Jelack, but you can call me... um... Jello... I guess..." He looked straight into her green eyes. Jelack considered himself pretty good at reading emotions just from the look in someone's eyes. But Kitsune's eyes he couldn't even fathom what she was feeling. At least the smile on her face told him that she was as happy as him.

[Obscure]

"Well, Jello, are you visiting or planning on staying?" she asked, looking at him, studying him closely. "If you're wondering, im not part Fox. Even though Kitsune does mean fox..." she murmered, adverting her gaze to the nearby stream.

[Rykett]

"I'm just passing through. Oh and you're scent says you're full wolf so there'd be no way I'd think you were a fox unless of course you had no scent," Jelack laughed. Thought of anything having no scent seemed completely outrageous. "You know..." Jelack said, "that Jello nickname just seems wrong let's just stick with Jelack. Unless you want to call me Jello go ahead. I don't mind."

[Obscure]

Kit looked back at the male, "Hm? Oh, er, sure. So, Jelack, where are you headed?" she asked, standing and walking towards him, tail dragging behind her. Kit sat in front of him, pawing his nose and laughing at how it still had dust on it.

[Rykett]

"Not really sure... I just kind of wander most of the time. I'm not looking for anything but fun," Jelack answered. His nose twitched as the dust tickled his nose. He tried to hold back the oncoming sneeze but his efforts didn't stop the explosive sneeze.

[Obscure]

Kit rolled over, laughing at his sneeze. She looked up at the male with joy, "Well then, Im you're gal!" she chimed, giggling once more. She sat up and began pawing his ears, continuing to giggle.

[Rykett]

"Great!" Jelack yipped hardly holding back laughter of his own. "What do you wanna do? Go swimming? Hunt? Chase squirrels?" Jelack shuddered in excitement, "I love chasing squirrels!" His fur began to spike up as his excitement heightened. A play mate was just what he needed!

[Obscure]

"Sqirrels!" she yipped, flicking her ears to listen for them. Giving Jelack a sly look, she said "Catch me if you can!" before dashing off to the Fox breeding grounds, rolling in water to mask her scent as she blended in withe the other Foxes.
