I really wanted a cob house for a long time. Having lived in a 1BR apartment with Ben and three cats, though, taught me that I would get claustrophobic in a hurry if I lived in a tiny house. And we have zero window treatments still, too... :P
Magpie's single, careful, step was all the other needed to see. Without a word or even a motion, she was off in the other direction. The juvenile followed, every bit of her less confident than the other, but instinct told her this was her best course of action. She needed, craved social interaction — as all wolves certainly did — and the protection of a pack. She would not trust them as she trusted the Corvidae, and her standing would be dramatically less amongst them, she knew... but it was better than dead.
They reached the kill quickly, and the other indicated a haunch before immediately feasting upon its entrails. Magpie waited quietly, ignoring the ache in her belly — she would not flirt with the other's instinct and risk the tenuous offer of shelter. Only when the stranger had her fill and begin to work a front leg did the teenager follow suit. It was torture, grasping a hind leg in her jaws, tasting the ungulate's sweat and fear. She wanted nothing more than to tear flesh from bone and consume until her belly was swollen, but that would surely mean her own death.
Instead, she worked her jaw and teeth along the creature's hip socket and joint, slowly severing the tendons and muscle that attached it to the torso.
