Kylon:

The thick gray pelt of the strong male glowed even more golden as the light from the sinking sun melted over the land. The end of the day was nearing, and so would their journey for the day. Kylon flung his head around to look for Lykos and Jess were somewhere behind him. His ears had hurt too much listening to the blind she-wolf talk that he had to quicken his pace so that he could be ahead of them and not have to listen to the annoyingly cheerful chattering of Jess. In some way he would silence that tongue, maybe not make her completely mute, but whipping out all that cheerfulness would sure be nice. Jess seemed like a wolf that could handle a lot, just by the way she spoke about her past with no emotion. Her own parents tried to kill her, yet she is still smiling and laughing. Kylon grumbled to himself as he thought about how he would simmer the spirit in her, or turn it rotten. Training wolves to the evil side was a lot harder of a task than he thought. But if it didn't work on Jess, than there was no other way but to release her soul from her blind body.

Trickling sounds played peaceful notes of tranquility from the nearby creek. The gray male turned his head to the melodious sound and dropped his tongue out of his jaw anticipating the cool liquid. They had traveled a good distance, and water was high priority right now. "Come on you two, I found a creek!" Kylon didn't wait for his brother and the she-wolf, he was already trotting down to where the sound of the running water was coming from.

Lykos ~

During their travels with Jess, even if they hadn't been very long so far, Lykos found that he actually admired the new wolfess. His whole life, Lykos had been ashamed of every ounce of weakness which showed in him. Be it strong emotions, kind gestures, or appreciating beauty, he suppressed the quirky things that supposedly lessened his strength.

But Jess, even after loads of heart ache, was openly cheerful. She laughed and smiled like it was perfectly acceptable, like no one would call her foolish or weak. She was just happy to be happy. And being around her, Lykos was happy to be happy, too. Even though she couldn't see him, he smiled as she spoke. He let a chuckle slip when she laughed. But he was constantly wary of Kylon, not too far ahead of the pair as they walked. His brother probably found this irritating. Lykos valued his brother's opinion too much to not notice it. So he held back slightly, keeping in mind that, unfortunately, Jess was either going to have to go eventually — preferably not by death, though it was possible — or her chipper nature would have to be chased off. Either one created a pang of disappointment in Lykos' heart.

As soon as Kylon called to them, Lykos tried to drop the depressing subject his mind was lingering on. He smiled, then padded in front of Jess. He swiveled around to look at her face. "Here, follow my voice. I don't want you tripping." The land by the stream was rocky so it was quite possible she would have trouble. But then again, she could have been perfectly fine with walking through jagged landscapes, since she'd been blind her whole life. Lykos still didn't want to risk it. "There's a stone a few inches in front of you. And a small crease in the ground right after it." Lykos walked backwards as he guided her. @pittypat
