Firestone Hot Springs stars are not here to be pretty

He'd been so engrossed in exploring this place – that he hadn't even noticed them, not their scent nor their voices – he hadn't even heard their previous conversation. It was only as he aimlessly roamed around one of the many, wide pools did Flint finally catch the lighter woman's last remark, something along the lines of this place supposedly being a cool 'hangout' spot. Was that what this place was? A hangout spot? He blinked, remaining still for a moment, his lean head tilting to the side some as a mere stub (where his right ear should be) twitched, along with his remaining ear and eventually the dark hued male decided to wander closer. With his curiosity peaking and the mild excitement at meeting others, the wolf x made sure he was slow in his approach and as soon as he figured that he was close enough to them, did the young male offer them a friendly wag of his tail, large off-white socked paws coming to a slow halt as he left a spacious gap between himself and the two women.

What the-? The loner offered a polite smile and though it was somewhat forced by the sight he was seeing right now, he still gave a simple nod of his head in greeting, but what was meant to leave his mouth wasn't what he had originally planned to say, ”A raccoon...” He started, feeling his body wince internally as he said the word out-loud and not with the silent voice of his own mind. Crap. He couldn't help but frown some, sapphire gaze solely on the small, furry, black masked animal that was currently settled a top the lighter woman's head. Bright eyes continued to stare at the tiny critter and the look of complete and utter puzzlement was soon visible across the hybrid's face, though as he glanced from wolf to critter and then to wolf, his widened gaze gradually relaxed, ”I uh - hope I haven't interrupted anything?” He asked with a light chuckle, the young adventurer finding himself mildly amused at the unlikely sight before him.

Sorry for the wait and sucky post! :<
