Moonspear keep this fire burning brighter

arcturus had been so busy yapping his head off he scarcely realized his sister had just tossed a bone his way -- and not figuratively either.

he froze, watching as the pale bone arced through the air, as if in slow motion; a slow turn of its ridges as if a planet revolving - his eyes gradually becoming wider the closer and closer it swung towards him.

and then -- BANG.

followed by CLATTER!

his eyes closed in pain as his body registered a split second later what had happened; the bone had bounced quite harshly off of his skull, and sunk to the ground with a series of tinny clatters. arcturus' head swam and he bobbed, eyes opening in time to see a second (and maybe a little more scary) object hurtling towards him like a furious grey meteor.

arcturus came to his senses, if a bit belatedly -- he swooped up the bone and turned away from his brother just as revui fell upon him, all force and teeth. with a Big Oof the boy was shoved forward, and he stumbled valiantly with his prize in tow. it was enough momentum for arcturus to catch his stride and gallop away, head absurdly craned to support the rather ungainly bone he carried.
