Heron Lake Plateau the world grows older every day.

Fin's elation at knocking her mate over lasted all of five seconds, which was the same amount of time it took for her to lose her own footing and stumble onto her haunches with a loud thud of bum upon ice. She skidded around to face Elwood, her ears perking as he cried out for help. Fin had obviously never seen the commercial before, but she still burst out laughing at his antics. 

"Oh no, my poor helpless boy!" she called, pulling herself back onto all fours with an unsteady slip of her paws. She gained her balance again after a moment and skidded over to him. "Here, we gotta get you back to safety, just hold on!" she cried dramatically, then reached to nab his forearm gently in her teeth and began to tug him back towards the shore.
