Silvertip Mountain Let Me Go

Ezekiel felt awfully bad about scaring the pup. But more so than feeling like a butt, he was scared of Odette's mother kicking him out it or to quote Steady, 'get his head bitten off'. She asked for some proof, but he didn't know what to give her. I promise I'm a good guy. Ask your uncle Steady, or aunt Krypton. I brought your mom that rabbit the other day and another rabbit that Krypton probably brought you a few days ago. I'm here to help. He made sure to keep his distance, not wanting to further frighten the girl.

Wow, he was super bad at talking to kids. But he sounded sincere. He didn't talk baby talk or act like he was talking to a kid. He talked to her in a genuine manner, as if she were an adult. That's how his family had always treated him, so he'd never known how to act around real pups.
