Redhawk Caldera prize of the century

thank you for joining :D yes, we can bump it to present :)

Eljay still felt kind of mixed about his catch, because he had caught it himself but he also hadn't had the cleanest of executions, unfortunately. Yet maybe it'd be best to skip the details and just let his parents know that he had caught something, rather than spare the details. Eljay was glad that when he reached his parents' den, daddy was already on his way towards him. Eljay's tail waved briefly and he put down the mangled carcass and licked the blood off his lips while daddy asked him about the catch.

"Yeah, well, sort of. I mean, it was already kind of limpy..." Eljay smiled bashfully and felt kind of dumb — he'd told himself not to downgrade his story right away, but somehow the words just tumbled from his mouth. Hopefully it wouldn't take away all of daddy's pride about his accomplishments, though, 'cause even if they were but small compared to other wolves, Eljay knew it was a big deal 'cause it was him and he'd accomplished, well, something, at least.
