Dragoncrest Cliffs Will be the day, a smile marking his face

Turns out tag was harder to explain than to demonstrate. Ephraim would run into the same conundrum if he tried to explain some of his own games from Grimnismal, but he could hardly think of them to mention. The black-and-white boy opted instead to show him, eliciting a flinch from Ephraim, who wasn't expecting the tap. It didn't hurt though and he chuckled at his own nervousness. Seemed fun. He could get behind it.

As Tux drew his foot away, Ephraim's eyes locked onto his toes, and suddenly the notion of tag was momentarily put aside. For you see, Tux had a toe that Ephraim didn't have. The little coywolf confirmed it by glancing between his foot and Tux's, and couldn't stop himself from asking, rather insensitively, "wha's that toe do?"
