Neverwinter Forest Neptune

Luhtar barely had time to register her movement before she was on him. His ears shot upright, and a startled grunt escaped him as Seastorm bounced forward with surprising agility, despite her three-legged gait. His initial instinct to step back was quickly replaced by a deep scowl as her teeth found his fur—not with force, but enough to make her point.

His thick coat cushioned her playful nip, but his pride took the hit directly. He stiffened, his yellow eyes narrowing as he looked down at her with exaggerated indignation. “You chew ME?” he growled, though there was no real heat to his words. His tail flicked sharply behind him, betraying his conflicted reaction—a mix of annoyance and reluctant amusement.

His teeth feigned weakness, unwilling to lay a rough paw on the girl—especially since she appeared to already be injured, something he hadn't noticed before now. He throttled her then, onto her back, soon standing over her in all his pudgy, towering glory. A sharp, pointed glare was fixed on the teen.
