Phantom Hollow feels like I am falling down a rabbit hole;; falling for forever

Absolutely love this

His success in reversing their roles left a proud smile on Lennon’s face, and Alarian’s comment only enhanced it - he’d won! Yet before his jubilation, a peculiar tingling shot down his spine when the whisper first hit his ear. The odd sensation left him the wolf feeling on edge. Despite this when their play ceased he found himself disappointed.  

Being so frazzled, Lennon didn’t notice the embarrassment and fluster his counterpart felt, no matter how obvious. At first, he was going to argue they continue their amusement until Korei reentered his mind, causing a complete shift in priority. He took Ali’s diversion of play as having a letdown from losing (when really they were tied), so he gave the other a quick nudge on their cheek. ”You’ll get your chance to win,” He encouraged lightheartedly, before agreeing - Korei was back on his mind and he no longer intended to mess around, ”you’re right though, let’s get going.”
