Blackfoot Forest the yowling won't cease

Lol, if I had a nicer/more "fun" character, they would love Fox ^_^ BUT HERE HAVE A GRUMPY-PANTS HAUNT INSTEAD

A wolfish brow quirked in her direction, and he peered down at the small blaze of fur for a moment; his slightly incredulous expression read: "I'm making all the racket?" although he didn't feel the need to say it out loud. He examined her slender face for a moment longer before turning his one-earred skull elsewhere again. She returned quickly with a justified question and Haunter found himself snorting lightly on reflex. He didn't want to admit that he liked being alone, or that he felt it was better because then no one could provoke, or worse, abuse him. These were irrational fears, especially of one of the most socially-bound creatures on earth.

Haunter took a deep breath, which seemed necessary to come up with another, less revealing answer. "I didn't realize at first that it would only get worse the further I walked." This was true, but then it led to reason about why he didn't turn back. "I also thought I could tolerate it," he added, raspy tone disintegrating as he fell quiet once more.
