Redhawk Caldera behind those eyes

it's open -- i just forgot to add the AW tag.

The small pup remained in place when something entered the den. He remained in place and did not move until something was touched to his nose. In surprise, he moved back a little, crawling backwards across the floor, and wriggled its nose.

Once the initial surprise was lessened, the pup carefully moved forward again. It gingerly reached its nose out to what had touched him before and inhaled the scent. Then the pup wriggled his nose again, not sure what to make of this scent. It was strange, but pleasant too. He liked it.
