Blacktail Deer Plateau evolution of consciousness

I hope the following power play's okay. Let me know if it isn't and I can edit my post. :3

Peregrine had never been a particularly swift runner, though he managed to keep pace with his favorite PYT, loping after her at a long-legged, ground-eating gait. At times, he let her gain on him so that she nearly disappeared into the distance, then he would speed up and resume a distance of about ten yards.

After some time of this, he burst forward with sudden speed, angling as if preparing to nip her hindquarters. Instead, he dove between her hind legs and jerked his head upward, causing her hind legs to sprawl over his face. The view wasn't bad, though Peregrine only hung there for a moment before setting her back down and leaping to the side with a boyish laugh.
