Moonspear Outsider

every time the doe bucked against his teeth, arcturus felt his head ring; a shrill,  innervating sensation that had him at once both nauseous and shivering. 

he bit down still, relieved when moriko practiced the killing blow. releasing the doe arcturus managed a feeble smile; this crucible had proven his worth very little in terms of hunting prowess. 

settling on his haunches the moonspearian reflected on the doe, a wince of pain lingering in his expression. that was a good run, he encouraged softly, still feeling dizzy in spite his efforts to remain upright. he noticed her concern and waved it away with a tough shrug — he would be alright.  let’s eat what we can, and bring the rest home.

"Home..?" She perked up, tilting her head as he nose twitched a little bit in exctiement. Home? Maybe he just mispoke.

Moriko hadnt had a home in a long time, and the word home had never been applied or addressed to her.

"I-Okay, also I'll carry extra if you need some time to recoop-" She added, blinked as she hopped up, beginning to pull apart the doe. The way she got up was almost like a pup, and excited pup who had heard words of encouragement. She felt a surge within herself, confidence..? Acceptance..?

She nudged a piece to him for him to eat, trying to allow him to get over his vertigo.
