This ain't a scene

FitzDutiful's inquiry about the thing around her neck, startled Ryuu. She glanced up as he heaved himself from the lake and shook the water from his coat. As the spray coated her with a fine mist, Ryuu flinched slightly. "I'm not sure," she answered the alpha. "I had woken with it heavy around my neck." She glanced back at her reflection, noting that water was now dappling her coat. "This is the first I've seen it. It's quite nerve racking." She tilted her head one way, and then the other in an attempt to see the whole thing. But it was the same on either side of the blinking box, a thick black, smooth material that circled the whole of her neck. "I don't even know what to call it." She had never heard the two-legs speak of it. "I'm worried that it could be dangerous, but it's never hurt me." Icy eyes turn back to FitzDutiful filled with fear. "I don't want to bring any harm to our pack."
