Blacktail Deer Plateau buddy system

something was happening in the state of Denmark Blacktail Deer Plateau, and Cas was infected with the quiet roil of tension and excitement. It set his steps into a more focused path, and his hunts were intended to fill the caches, for winter was upon the near horizon. Lately his thoughts had been about Pearl, her soft pale fur and radiant eyes bringing sleeplessness upon him. It would not be long before he and his siblings entered the adult ranks; perhaps, when he was older, he could persuade her to consider him.

He wondered if Constantine had his own crushes; he remembered Shego, and now Pearl, and was a little proud of himself for his variety in infatuations. As a delicate, feminine voice filtered through the rainy air, Casmir was surprised to hear that it was for him -- and did not come from his mother or sister. Curious, the Mayfair slid into a lope, slipping once in the growing puddles of mud with his ungainly forepaws.

Composing himself, he emerged into the presence of the summoner; a pretty newcomer the colour of a fancy Parisian dessert. "you rang?" Casmir intoned gruffly; he was the son of a leader, and felt he must act as such, though he was careful not to display any untoward dominance at the girl. instead he stood awaiting her words, dragging his eyes away from her sylphlike little features as not to be accused of staring.
