Somber willows

Blair watched the execution of Hati's hunting carefully. She could tell he was a good hunter, and that made her smile. The elk went down with little problem and she rolled her eyes as he yelled over to them. She trotted over softly, hissing as her ribs flared with pain. Once she was near it, she dug into its neck. Her sharp teeth easily tore into the deer's meat and its blood ran down her throat. She almost moaned at the feeling. She always got pleasure from killing her hunt, but if she couldn't do so she would find pleasure in its blood.

She looked over to Hati, flashing him a sweet smile. "You can have some, if you'd like," she told him. Her fur seemed dull, lifeless, as though it needed a wash. And she would do so as soon as she could. She just needed to get to a river or lake. Her fur normally gleamed beautifully, and her eyes had a spark. The spark was starting to emerge again, but it was barely noticeable at that moment. She dug into the deer once again.

(hati just sit there and watch blair eating)
he said: 'pretty hungry huh?...well it's just for you don't mind me .... maybe ill eat later...

(hati observe blair the way he moves he sees that his injury are still bad)
he said: 'your injuries are still bad....i knew it the way you move berfore was different compared to now....
what are you planning to do next?....well i mean After your injuries are healed?

Blair shrugged. "I don't know. It'll take a little time for the injuries to heal, but after that... I'm just a wanderer. I explore the lands, meet new people, cause trouble." she winked at Hati then. "That's what I do. Do you care to join me?" she asked. On the inside, she was hoping he'd say yes. But on the outside, she was completely calm as she finished eating.
She went over to Hati's side and laid down a foot or two away from him.

(Hati, thinks for a moment if he will join blair)
replied: 'oh yes...i would love to join you... i love being with you, you know.... well...even with your condition im still happy to be with you...
(hati wag his tail and his tongue lolled out of his mouth...just pure happiness that he's been asked to join her)
....

Blair smiled softly at him, bumping her shoulder against his. "I'm glad you feel like that. I feel the same, so I'm more than happy to keep you with me," she told him. Her heart leaped when he said yes, but she tried to keep her expression neutral. She failed. Her face had broke into that grin.

She stood slowly, carefully. "Now. Would you mind escorting me to some water Hati?"

(hati keeps wagging his tail for he is very happy)
he replied: 'Oh sure...I see one while I was hunting earlier...
(as they arrived at the stream blair take a drink and hati followed...hati takes a secret look at blair with full of admiration)

Blair took a drink of the water, the coolness feeling good on her throat. Then she stepped into the water. Her coat was caked in dirt, so much so that it looked brown. Well, Hati was in for a surprise. She ducked her head under momentarily. The water softened the dirt and she scrubbed her pelt. The dirt washed away. When she came back up for air, her black and white fur shined cleanly once again. She looked over to Hati, flashing a white smile at him.

"Hati, paused for a moment when he saw blair smiling at him...he went head-over-heels"
he said: 'your pelt was b-b-beautiful...'
"hati, focused his attention to blair...and amazed on how beautiful she was"

"Thank you," she told him quietly as she walked onto shore. She shook her fur, it gleaming in the sunlight. She looked Hati over, and felt her heart fluttering. He really was attractive, and he was nice as well.

"Hati, still amazed and don't know what to say to blair"

he said: 'your welcome...."hati,bows at blair" Wanna play?....

Blair bowed to Hati as well. "I would love to," she replied. Then, she jumped on him. She nipped at his ear, growling playfully as her tail wagged quickly.

"Hati wags he tail and his tongue lolled out"
'hati body slams blair and fell down and he playfully bite blairs front paws..'

Blair giggled, lightly pawing Hati. She attacked him again, knocking him over. She laid on top of him, her tongue hanging out her mouth. She looked down at him with a grin.

"Hati, still under blair"
he said: 'okay you win I surrender(laughing)
now lets play...TAG"hati puts paw on the face of blair and run"
now let's see whos faster...hahha....chase me!!! wheeee!!!

Blair laughed. She quickly stood up and chased after him. Her lean body stretched out, her loping stride long and graceful. She'd always been a beautiful runner, and she caught up with Hati pretty quickly. She nipped his tail softly and raced up beside him. "You're it," she whispered in his ear breathily, quickly loping the other way.

"hati,suprised at blair's speed...looking at blair he not focusing attention on where he is running....he runs toward a branch.."
he said: 'Ouch!!!hey blair can you lend me some paw?(giggling)

Blair sighed, shaking her head. She giggled as she trotted over to him. "You're so silly. What do you need help with?" she asked as she nuzzled the side of his head.

"hati,grins at blair and looks like he have a plan"

Blair backed away slowly. "What are you thinking about...?" she asked suspiciously.

"hati's tail is is horizontal and straight. and his wide grin is not fading away he approach blair"

Blair slowly grinned back, still wondering. "What are you up to..." she wondered aloud. She backed away at the same rate that he approached.

"hati, lounge at blair and they both fell down..hati is positioned on the top"
licked blairs nose he said: 'gotcha!!! tag your it..!!! hahaha(laughs)

She laughed along with him. She licked his nose as well.
To get him off, she slammed her hips up into his. It made her feel good, but she ignored it and rolled out from under him.
