The boy couldn't help feeling a bit embarrassed at the comment, fluffing up as he felt a heated flush under his fur.

Alarian shook his coat out, shooting the larger wolf a mischievous glance. The next moment, he had kicked up a small amount of snow at the other, then he bolted again. This time the boy only ran a short distance before turning back to look, ears pricked, completely still. It was an invitation for the other to play with him-- he was hungry, yes, but play was definitely a higher priority. He chuffed at the other wolf and gave a couple wags of his tail, then stilled again, waiting.
