Totoka River 그 안에 숨겨진 비밀을 알게된 것 같아

But of course, he is the evilest of geniuses!
Oops! Seelie forgot how to dog.

If Marbas’ goal had been to win the inky ingénue over, he had more than achieved it. She was a creature who loved her freedom, having learned at a tender age what it was to be detained by force; the woman’s cabin had been tiny enough for two growing wolfdogs and their working dog mother, let alone the cramped stainless steel nightmare of her stay at the veterinary hospital. Being separated from Amoxtli for any prolonged period of time bred a mounting anxiety in the girl; he was her sole commitment. Perhaps the tragic parting borne of her parents’ mutual decision to choose responsibility over love was part of the reasoning behind her unwillingness to settle down or make promises she could not keep. That being said, what attachments she did form were as enduring and vital as water — she could be captured with a name, as had been clearly demonstrated by the golden-eyed mystic who had sung of Tara and Riverbone and a nameless power.

Marbas suggested continuing their game — a game that had begun in a series of painfully clumsy fits and starts before it had evolved to suit them both — and Coelacanth was all too eager to appease him. With her back arched like an exaggerated tilde and her rump wriggling with the force of her feathered tail, the sheepdog-turned-porcupine stalked toward him, hazarding a few daring steps with her forequarters dipped low. She “barked” her soundless, airy bark, then whirled and bounded away, kicking with her hind legs to throw water in the face of the handsome male. With a care to her catlike paws, she skip-hopped to avoid his snaring more than just water in his capable fangs, but found the water beneath her to be deeper than she had initially thought. Rather than stiffening her limbs and fighting gravity in a frantic flurry of limbs, she slackened her muscles and let the water take her under as she seemed to disappear briefly from view. Bloop!
