Lost Creek Hollow 'cause i know i had it all on the line

the howl came at a very inconvenient time. it was, the first time in his life, that terance almost completely ignored his friends howl. but, wait? what the fuck -- no, he couldn't ignore rannoch. so terance pried himself away from treason and made his way towards his friend. 

he'd tried to groom himself down on the walk over, but no doubt terance smelled like an abundance of things that he... typically didn't smell like. estrus, for one, which was also probably floating around the territory anyway, and most certainly treason. he looked a little ruffled up, but he'd done a good job making himself look presentable in the short walk over. 

as rannoch came into view, terance gave an amiable bark and a few waves of his tail. it still brought him great joy to see rannoch out of the den -- even though it probably was pretty minor. hey, take the little things. "what's up," he called as he approached, stopping a short distance off from rannoch to maybe put up a barrier between rannoch and whatever the hell was going on with terance right now at this moment.
