the earth lumbers on

since flash is going for JD i'm going to pop in w/ DM as his post probably wouldnt effect flash or JD's! please PM me if anyone is not comfortable with this! after this, we may want to think of separate orders - JD and Flash could probably keep posting w/o waiting up for us as they are separate from the main fight now.

No sooner had their prospects looked up, they were thwarted by further challenge. Dogmeat looked up in time to see a wild inu belligerently appear. Dogmeat had no word or knowledge of wolves, but he knew thus far they were terrifying. And thus, he returned the howl with a bray of his own -- calling into favor @Warthog, @Outlaw , @Spectre or any other dog nearby.

Despite Shadow's bristling appearance it did not stay him -- with a snarl he rounded upon Shadow with massive jowls slobbering and teeth flashing. While Shadow was distracted by Twister, Dogmeat came barreling from the opposite side -- with his burly frame, he was not unlike a charging boar. Placing his front legs adequately and strategically underneath the wolf's own, he sought to trip or unbalance the wolf while his teeth hoped for skin -- if his aim was true, the collision combined with both his teeth and chest would fell the wolf immediately.

He had no intent to kill -- at least not yet -- but this did not soften his blows. He would hold onto any part of Shadow his teeth found, reluctant to release the fiend for fear of disaster. If they could seize the leader and garner a stalemate, perhaps it would prevent any lives being lost that day.
